Tanishq – It is a TATA Company. It has created a revolution in the Indian jewellery trade and in jewellery buying behaviour.

Foreign currency was not an issue, import licences were easy to obtain and the global demand-supply equation for jewellery had shifted in favour of buyers. Tanishq, therefore, shifted its focus to the Indian market. Initially, there was criticism for Titan’s brand entering into jewellery.
