Aupulent Debuts India's First Astro Lab-Grown Diamond Line
Diamonds have traditionally played a vital role in Vedic astrology, especially for those influenced by Venus (Shukra). However, access to high-quality mined diamonds has remained limited, expensive, and environmentally taxing. Aupulent is redefining that tradition by using CVD-grown diamonds that are physically, chemically, and energetically identical to mined ones.
'We want to challenge the notion that only mined diamonds have spiritual power. Lab-grown diamonds carry the same energy, and they're the future of ethical luxury,' said Surya Jain, Founder & CEO of Aupulent. A fifth-generation jeweller and wellness advocate, Jain calls Astro a personal mission to bring gemstone spirituality into the future.
Astrology's New-Age Appeal
With astrology witnessing a cultural resurgence, especially among Gen Z and millennials, the collection taps into a generation that seeks meaning, balance, and intentional living. A NumroVani study in 2024 found that 51% of Indians aged 18–35 refer to astrology daily, with 88% reading horoscopes weekly.
The Power of the Diamond in Vedic Astrology
In Vedic tradition, diamonds are associated with Venus, ruling over love, creativity, beauty, and luxury. Individuals with Taurus or Libra ascendants, or a strong Venus in their chart, are particularly recommended to wear diamonds for emotional harmony, charm, relationship healing, and financial success.
Designed for Energy & Everyday Wear
Each ring in the Astro collection is engineered to ensure that the diamond touches the skin, in line with Vedic principles. Crafted for both aesthetics and energy transfer, the collection combines comfort, durability, and spiritual resonance. It is available in gold or platinum with exact planetary weights and certified purity.
Backed by Science, Guided by Spirit
Each diamond is grown using CVD technology, tested for energetic alignment, third-party lab certified, and available with optional astrology consultations to ensure personal relevance and impact.
'Jewellery is no longer just adornment—it's about meaning,' Jain added. 'With Astro, we are offering jewellery that empowers from within while reflecting personal style and spiritual purpose.'
With this launch, Aupulent becomes the first Indian brand to formally integrate lab-grown diamonds into astrological jewellery, pioneering a path where sustainability, science, and spirituality coexist.

Viral: Coditas CEO Mitul Bid shares GenZ candidate's sassy response upon rejection, leaves netizens shocked
Image credits: Getty Images While self-awareness and self-worth are two much-needed concepts in every human's life, Gen Z takes it up a notch. Those at the workplace, between 20 and 28, are typically appreciated for reshaping the experience with their value for a work-life balance and adherence to the concepts of personal boundaries and time. However, a recent Gen Z job candidate has raised many eyebrows with their response to rejection for a role. Mitul Bid, founder and CEO of tech company Coditas, recently took to LinkedIn to share a screenshot of a response he received from a Gen Z candidate who was not selected for a role. Part impressed and amused by the statements, he captioned the post, 'GenZ, you keep on teaching me!" What did the Gen Z candidate write? Image credits: LinkedIn/Mitul Bid Based on the screenshot shared by the CEO, the candidate made him aware that he would regret not hiring him and would one day rise above Bid's position to sign his exit letter. 'Totally respect your decision, but just wanted to say– Cool, you've decided to 'Move forward other candidates." — but let's be honest, you didn't even clock what I'm really capable of. You barely knew my skill set, my drive, or what I bring to the game. " 'But no worries — bigger doors are opening, and trust me, I'll crack a major opportunity with your company that actually knows how to spot real talent. I believe in myself. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 3–6 BHK luxury residences at Address by GS S3 Raymond Realty Learn More Undo I'm gonna build something big. I'm not here to beg for chances — I create them. And mark my words, one day I'll be sitting at the top while folks like you get shown the door," it added. Stating that the company "lost a gem", the response concluded with 'And one day, when I'm sitting in that corner office, don't be surprised if I'm the one signing your exit letter. You didn't reject me. You rejected the damn upgrade. I don't chase opportunities — I create them. I don't wait for offers — I become the offer. So yeah — you lost a gem, and I'll make sure the world knows it." How did people react to the Gen Z response? In the post, the CEO also revealed how other generations reacted to the Gen Z candidate's email, adding that the opinion was "largely a generational one." He shared how boomers and Gen X were shocked and some even angered. Whereas millennials had mixed views. While some were shocked, others expressed understanding and a few termed it the influence of social media. 'Most, but some were also understanding. Heard the terms 'entitlement', 'disillusioned', 'influenced by social media', etc," he added. Gen Z, as expected, supported the candidate, adding they understood where the candidate was coming from. 'I heard terms like 'manifestation', 'self-worth', 'motivation', etc," the CEO stated. Netizens react to the Gen Z candidate's email People on the internet had mixed reactions to the Gen Z candidate's bold email. While some appreciated their confidence, others criticised their arrogance. "It sounds harsh, but I love his/her confidence," commented one under the CEO's post. "Will Smith said, "I used to be stupid when I was a kid, but there were no social media back then, hence, I was stupid in private." Sadly these kids are showing first hand what public stupidity means," jabbed another. "Wow the entitlement is beyond me. It's good to be confident but this is something else..." wrote a person on LinkedIn. Many thought the response was definitely one motivated or influenced by ChatGPT, writing, "Another Gen Z bowing down to ChatGPT." A fellow Gen Z surprisingly criticised the response, writing, "As a fellow Gen Z no, this is not confidence. I don't find this valid. This is blatantly harsh. There is a way to write- which grounds in respect, clearly lacking here."
