P C Chandra Jewellers, one of the leading jewellery houses in Kolkata, will open four more outlets in West Bengal and two in Mumbai and Delhi soon.

Currently, the jewellery chain has 13 showrooms in the city.

According to Prashanto Chandra, deputy managing director, P C Chandra Jewellers, “Despite the overall economy slowdown, gold remains by far the safest investment option. Although gold prices have been fluctuating in the last six months, business is booming as usual because people continue to invest in gold anticipating rise in gold prices which can ensure higher return on investment.”

The jewellery chain is hoping gold prices will increase further by November this year to touch Rs 15-16,000 per 10 gms, up from Rs 13,000 per 10 gm of gold right now.

P C Chandra has also announced new schemes for Dhanteras.

The festival will be celebrated at all outlets from October 22 till October 27.

“With Diwali just around the corner, our Dhanteras scheme will offer an incredible opportunity to the customers to exchange their old jewellery with new designs,” Chandra said.

The scheme will offer 22 per cent discount on making charges and a further discount of 7 per cent on purchase of diamond jewellery and other precious stones.

The jewellery chain will also offer gifts with every purchase, including LCD TV and iPhones, decided through lucky draw.
