following an earlier launch in Lucknow. Both the cities are known for their

cultural significance and consumer potential in historically rich markets. Former

since the beginning. Today,

youngsters are being introduced into this profession and encouraged to

progress. She stated that the youth have

a better understanding of what they like and dislike. “This is for people who want their jewelry to

have a distinct identity as well as a strong emotional connection,” she opined,

preserved the stories of knowledge and heritage passed down from generations.

Partnering with Naman Gupta and Janhavi Gupta at such a place is a way to honor

the rich heritage through conscious design and excellent craftsmanship. He said

that people will also get a scheme here. In which on depositing every month,

they will be given jewelry as per their need. Currently, there is also a

discount of 30 to 35 percent,” he added.

Prayagraj,

home to the sacred Triveni Sangam, has long been a place where tradition, and

culture come together. It’s a city that carries the stories of wisdom across

generations. For Indriya, opening a store here is more than just a new address.

It’s a way to celebrate the rich heritage through Indriya’s commitment to

meaningful design and craftsmanship.
