Rahul Desai, Managing Director & CEO of the International Institute of Gemology (IIG), widely recognized for his visionary leadership in the jewellery sector, has formally introduced RD Consultancy — a specialised growth advisory firm for the jewellery industry. RD Consultancy focuses on four key pillars: Product Planning, People Management, Brand Pulse, and Placement Strategy, offering a comprehensive approach for jewellery businesses aiming to innovate, expand, and lead in today’s competitive market. This new venture marks a major milestone in Desai’s career, further cementing his reputation as a strategist, mentor, and industry advisor.
With over 20 years of hands-on experience across manufacturing, retail, branding, and digital transformation, Rahul Desai has been instrumental in driving growth for both B2B and B2C jewellery enterprises. RD Consultancy now channels this experience into a structured platform, guiding businesses towards tangible, scalable success. Its mission is clear — to translate vision into actionable strategy and flawless execution.
“Through my journey, I’ve observed that many jewellery entrepreneurs have big ambitions but often lack the strategic roadmap to sustain growth,” says Mr. Desai. “RD Consultancy provides that missing link — a clear blueprint to build, scale, or transform businesses, whether they’re just starting out, adjusting to market changes, or preparing for their next phase of expansion.” The consultancy also specializes in helping brands pivot across formats, including transitions from B2C to B2B, D2C, or e-commerce, with solutions tailored to today’s evolving market dynamics.
RD Consultancy prides itself on its highly customized, insight-led approach — no generic templates, only bespoke strategies aligned to each business’s unique goals. From optimizing product lines and refining operations to building strong brand stories and enhancing team performance, every solution is designed for sustainable, long-term impact.
Having been the strategic force behind numerous successful brand transformations, Rahul Desai now extends his expertise through RD Consultancy, offering jewellery businesses an opportunity to unlock their full potential and lead with confidence.
