Entity setup
Qualified Jewellers
Import gold and silver through IIBX
About this entity type
A very brief overview
A Qualified Jeweller is notified by IFSCA to import gold and silver through the India International Bullion Exchange. Eligibility is based on turnover from precious-metal business, minimum net worth, and membership of a recognised trade body — no IFSC unit is required, which makes it the fastest route into the GIFT bullion ecosystem.
Who it suits: Jewellery manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers importing bullion.
