    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Delhi, Jan 22 (KNN)&lt;/strong&gt; Kabra Jewels, the Ahmedabad-based jewellery retailer, made a remarkable debut on the NSE SME exchange today, with shares listing at Rs 243.2, representing a 90 per cent premium over its issue price of Rs 128.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The initial public offering, consisting of 31.25 lakh fresh equity shares, garnered exceptional investor interest with a subscription rate of 350 times.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The company, which operates under the brand name KK Jewels, plans to utilise the IPO proceeds for debt repayment, working capital requirements, and general corporate purposes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Known for its expertise in designing and marketing exclusive jewellery creations, Kabra Jewels maintains a comprehensive portfolio of gold, diamond, and silver ornaments, including wedding jewellery, coins, utensils, and artefacts.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The retailer currently operates six specialised showrooms in Ahmedabad under distinct sub-brands: KK Jewels Bridal, KK Jewels Diamond, KK Jewels Silver, KK Jewels Gold, KK Jewels - Atarashi, and KK Jewels - Silver Studio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Additionally, the company maintains three offices and an exhibition centre, with all retail locations operating on rental arrangements.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;Kabra Jewels' market entry comes at a time when India's gems and jewellery sector continues to be a vital contributor to the national economy, accounting for 7 per cent of GDP and providing employment to over 5 million individuals.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The industry also plays a crucial role in India's export landscape, constituting approximately 15 per cent of total exports.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
