History
In 1992, HK started as a small-time diamond cutting and polishing unit in Surat with a few machines and employees. It later expanded to Mumbai to meet a growing demand for raw diamonds.
In 2005, HK launched its own jewellery brand - KISNA. Today, it is the largest distributed diamond jewellery brand in India, available in over 6,250 jewellery outlets. KISNA offers over 563 designs of rings, earrings, pendants, necklaces, bangles, bracelets and nose pins. It uses VVS diamonds and 18k hallmarked gold. From 2007 until 2008 HK grew by 49% and recorded a turnover of ₹ 1,025 crores (US$ 260 million at the time).
The vertical integration process transformed HK from a small diamond manufacturer to a complete mine-to-market supply chain with supply from miners like Diamond trading company (DTC), Rio Tinto, DDC (earlier BHP), Alrosa.
In May 2015, the company came under sharp criticism and is facing criminal charges for rejecting a job aspirant's application for being a Muslim.
