GJEPC and India International Bullion Exchange (IIBX) conducted two back-to-back outreach programmes on gold bullion procurement in Ratlam and Indore, Madhya Pradesh, in partnership with local Sarafa associations, as part of its ongoing effort to improve sourcing awareness and export readiness among MSME jewellers.
In Ratlam, the session was organised in association with the Ratlam Sarafa Association and attended by around 80 retailers. The programme was graced by Jhamak Bhargat, President; Rambabu Sharma, Secretary; and Sanjay Chajed, Treasurer of the association. Bipin Panchal, AVP, IIBX, explained the process of importing gold bullion through IIBX and outlined the operational and cost advantages available to eligible participants.

Panchal shared detailed insights on bullion imports under the TRQ quota, including eligibility criteria and step-by-step import procedures. The programme was attended by Basant Soni, Secretary; Kamal Kothana, Communications, and Ashok Sharma, Board Member of the association.
