Bengaluru, Karnataka, 26th of June 2026 : Indriya, Aditya Birla Jewellery, has set an industry-first benchmark in natural diamond selection, bringing greater delight and trust to the diamond buying experience. Rooted in the belief that exceptional sparkle is the most visible expressions of diamond quality, this approach builds on the brand’s best-in-class selection standards. Going beyond conventional grading standards, Indriya’s approach to diamond cut and selection evaluates how effectively a diamond reflects, refracts and returns light to deliver superior brilliance, fire and scintillation. Only 1 out of 5 natural diamonds meet these rigorous standards.

This shift comes at a pivotal moment for the category. India sits at the heart of the global diamond industry, with over 90% of the world’s diamonds cut and polished in regions like Surat and Mumbai. Yet, despite this deep-rooted expertise, diamond jewellery consumption remains below 15%. By prioritising diamonds with optimal proportions and superior light return, Indriya not only brings to the forefront some of the most brilliantly sparkling diamonds in the country but also aims to reshape how Indian consumers evaluate and choose diamonds, beyond the traditional 4Cs.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE SPARKLE
While clarity, colour and carat come from nature as physical property, cut is the result of human artistry and precision. It determines how light enters, reflects within and exits the diamond, making it the true driver of brilliance. A well-cut diamond maximises light return, while sub-optimal cuts allow light to escape, creating a visible difference in sparkle.

At Indriya, cut is further understood through three key aspects of light performance: Brilliance, Fire and Scintillation, capturing how a diamond truly appears when worn:

Brilliance: the white light reflected from a diamond’s facets
Fire: the dispersion of light into spectral colours
Scintillation: the flashes of sparkle seen in movement of light

Only diamonds that meet Indriya’s exacting standards across these parameters are selected, with precise proportions, optimal light return and minimal light leakage. Near-colourless F–H–G diamonds and high-clarity tables further enhance reflection, ensuring exceptional sparkle across every moment of wear.

To help consumers and stakeholders experience this distinction firsthand, Indriya has introduced SparkleScope, an innovative in-store technology that enables customers to evaluate a diamond’s sparkle. By making sparkle visibly measurable, this experience brings greater transparency to the buying process, allowing customers to see, understand and trust the difference that defines Indriya diamonds.

Commenting on this innovative industry benchmark introduction, Sandeep Kohli, CEO, Indriya said, “The diamond industry is evolving, and innovation is the need of the hour. For decades, quality assessments have focused on the 4Cs, but ultimately customers fall in love with a diamond that sparkle the brightest. It is the first thing they notice, the quality that instantly captures attention, and the reason a diamond feels truly special. At Indriya, we are bringing sparkle to the forefront, by offering a more visible, intuitive and consumer-first way to evaluate diamonds, while setting a new industry benchmark. Every diamond in Indriya is selected for its superior sparkle and is available across a wide range of categories and occasions. Our aim is to democratise access to, and understanding of, exceptional sparkle, enabling customers to discover the best, and most sparkling diamonds.”

Also sharing his perspective, Mr. Rajendran Ganapathy, Head of Supply Chain at Indriya comments, “At Indriya, we started with a simple belief: if sparkle is what customers cherish most, it should also be the defining benchmark of our diamond selection process. Indriya handpicks only 1 out of 5 diamonds available in the market to ensure that our customers get the most sparkling diamonds. The result is a collection of diamonds that are selected for exceptional visual sparkle that is captivating and enduring.”

With over 32,000 + designs, Indriya plans to change the way Indians buy diamonds, with karigaari at the core; showcasing evocative expressions of heritage reflecting extraordinary skill and generational knowledge of India’s master craftsmen.
