This recognition by GJEPC honoring the changemakers as industry stalwarts descended to receive the recognition.

Mehul Shah, Vice President of Bharat Diamond Bourse and President of the World Federation of Diamond Bourses was honoured for his impeccable service to the diamond gems and jewellery sector. Mr. Shah’s rise from a diamantaire to helming the WFDB stems from his unbiased service to members of the industry.

Mehul Shah dedicated the award to the artisans in India who relentlessly work to perfection and commented ” I dedicate this award to the Diamond Artisans of India, whose extraordinary craftsmanship has given our nation the pride of becoming the undisputed world leader in diamonds. Their ability to cut & polish a brilliant microscopic diamond which are a few hundred dollars per carats to large a carat diamond worth a few million dollars is a masterpiece of art is nothing short of miraculous. Their artistry deserves to be celebrated alongside the masterpieces of Picasso, M. F. Husain, and Raja Ravi Varma. Every perfectly faceted diamond is a work of art, reflecting years of skill, patience, precision, and passion with full emotions. I salute these remarkable artisans and bow in deep respect to their exceptional talent. This honour truly belongs to them as much as it belongs to me.

My heartfelt gratitude also goes to every member of the Indian and global diamond fraternity, whose unwavering support, encouragement, and good wishes have been my greatest strength. I know that this recognition is being celebrated by our entire diamond family, and I am deeply humbled by your affection and faith in me.

I once again extend my sincere thanks to the GJEPC and the entire diamond community for bestowing this prestigious honour upon me. I accept it with immense gratitude, humility, and a renewed commitment to serve our industry with dedication and integrity”.
