India’s natural diamond market is set to double in five years, says De Beers Group CEO Al Cook, during his first visit to the country. India has overtaken China to become De Beers’ second-largest market, after the US. De Beers is ramping up marketing spend, opening four new stores, and partnering with major players like Tanishq and GJEPC. While lab-grown diamonds (LGDs) are gaining ground, Cook emphasized their future lies in tech, not jewellery. De Beers has closed its LGD brand Lightbox amid a 90% fall in LGD prices.
