PM Modi's statement discouraging non-essential gold purchases directly impacts Indian jewellery retailers' demand and margins. The channel is regulatory/sentiment-driven demand shock, specific to India. Jewellery stocks (Titan, Senco, Kalyan, PC Jeweller) saw sharp declines. No supply-side scarcity; the risk is demand-side contraction. Historical parallels include India's gold import duty hikes in 2013-2014 which curbed demand and pressured jewellery stocks.
