India’s diamond exports to drop 17-20% in FY26 due to U.S. tariffs, weak demand, and lab-grown competition.
India’s polished diamond exports are projected to drop 17-20% to $11 billion in FY26, down from $13.3 billion in FY25, due to U.S. tariffs up to 50%, weakening global demand, and competition from lab-grown diamonds.
The sector, which processes over 90% of the world’s rough diamonds and earns 80% of its revenue from exports, faces pressure from shrinking margins and declining demand in key markets like the U.S., which accounts for a major share of India’s exports.
While domestic demand is growing due to rising incomes and urbanization, it remains constrained by high gold prices and affordable lab-grown alternatives.
Industry players are cutting production, reducing inventory, and exploring diversification and government incentives to adapt, though sustained trade challenges threaten long-term profitability and liquidity despite strong credit profiles.
