The investment in Limelight comes at a time when consumers are increasingly shifting to lab grown diamond studded jewellery influenced by deepening awareness on LGDs and a shift towards design and ethos led jewellery preferences. Reports suggest that the LGD sector in India is growing at 15-20% annually and this will further facilitate the Brand's expansion plans in India.

Commenting on the milestone, Pooja Madhavan, MD of the company, expressed gratitude towards her customers and stakeholders. "The investment comes at a perfect time when the LGD sector is seeing a disruptive boom in India and will help us accelerate our growth to reach newer heights. We are on a mission to disrupt India's $80 billion jewellery market by offering consumers the widest choice of designer jewellery at the sweetest price points. We remain focused on making Limelight the largest sustainable luxury jewellery brand from India to the world."
