Commenting on the recognition, Ketan Kothari, Whole-Time Director, Augmont, said, “This recognition reflects the collective efforts of our team and our continued focus on using technology to make gold more convenient and accessible for consumers. The evolution of online bullion trading, digital gold and e-commerce has opened new ways for jewellers and consumers to engage with gold. We have always focused on building platforms like augmont.com and Augmont SPOT that make these experiences more seamless and trusted.
Being the first recipient of this award at the inaugural IIJA is particularly meaningful for us.
