Discussions with directors and key stakeholders indicated that the present slowdown is unlikely to be short-lived, prompting the association to reconsider hosting the event next year.
Decision Taken in the Interest of the Industry
In its statement, the association emphasized that organizing a large-scale festival or exhibition under the current circumstances would not be appropriate. Rather than adding further pressure on businesses already navigating difficult conditions, ZBWA has chosen to adopt a cautious approach.
The association reiterated its commitment to supporting jewellers and industry participants during this period while monitoring market developments closely.
Update from Zaveri Bazaar Welfare Association
Our Chairman recently conducted a ZBWA Committee Meeting to review the current industry scenario. After deep discussions with all our Directors and key industry stakeholders, it’s clear this is not a temporary phase — the challenges are likely to continue for longer.
In light of this, ZBWA has decided to postpone ZBF2026.
We believe it’s not right to organize a festival or exhibition when the Hon’ble PM of India himself has appealed not to buy gold.
ZBWA to Continue Supporting the Jewellery Community
While ZBF 2026 has been postponed, the association assured members that it will continue engaging with stakeholders and working towards the long-term interests of the jewellery trade.
For the time being, ZBWA said it will “wait, watch, and continue supporting the industry” until market conditions show signs of meaningful improvement.
