GJSCI is very grateful to him for his support and guidance over the last two years.

He is a 4th generation gemmologist and at the helm of affairs at Tanvirkumar & Co., which is his family’s 76-year-old business.

He has been an active member of the COA of the Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council. and is also currently the Convener — marketing, promotions and business development at the Gem & Jewellery Export Promotion Council (GJEPC).
The cause of education is close to his heart, and he is a managing committee member at Each One Teach One, a 30-year-old NGO supporting the holistic needs of over 10,000 students from underprivileged backgrounds. He is also the Chairman of the Indian Institute of Gems & Jewellery (IIGJ) Mumbai, an institute run by GJEPC.
