India share about 15% of the global LGDs production   According to CareEdge Advisory, the Lab-grown Diamonds (LGDs) exports are expected to witness a revival in FY25, with exports expected to grow by 7-9% to reach a value of ~US$1500-1530 million.   LGD exports have been declining in recent time, and have seen around 16.5% decline y-o-y for FY24. While the sales volume of LGDs have been growing, the declining prices have impacted the exports. Nevertheless, the depreciating rupee is likely to act as a cushion for the industry, believes CareEdge Advisory.   Going forward the demand for LGD exports are expected to revive in FY25, as demand for naturally mined diamonds may remain sluggish. This is attributed to its price point, environmental sustainability, and intensified competition from India against other leading LGD-producing nations.  Tanvi Shah, Director, CareEdge Analytics and Advisory said, “The LGD exports are expected to witness a revival with expected growth of 7-9% to re
