The Hidden Truth Behind Nepal’s Gold Market: 100% Buy-Backs & Airport Customs Nightmares What happens when a traditional, multi-billion-rupee gold industry bound by strict state regulations faces the modern demands of Gen-Z buyers, lab-grown diamonds, and global export bottlenecks? In this exclusive episode of Become a Duo, host Anup Ghimire sits down with the President of the Jewelry Association of Nepal (Senior Jeweler, Ganapati Jewellers) and his son Siddhant Begani(Next-Gen Jeweller & Partner, Ganapati Jewellers). While gold remains Nepal’s ultimate financial safety net, local jewelers are caught between a unique 100% cash buy-back policy found nowhere else on Earth, airport customs headaches driving diaspora buyers away, and a rising generational clash over whether gold should be an investment or everyday aesthetic jewelry.
