Bengaluru, October 11, 2026: Jewellery retailer ABARAN commemorated the 125th birth anniversary of its founder, Late Burde Sadananda Kamath, with the launch of a 4-gram commemorative gold coin at its flagship Chord Road showroom in Bengaluru.

Born in 1901, Kamath established his first jewellery store, Neo Jewellery Mart, in Udupi in 1935. His son, Madhukar Sadanand Kamath, subsequently expanded the business under the ABHARAN name and established its presence in Bengaluru in 1983.

The company currently operates four showrooms in Bengaluru, including a Rolex boutique at Taj West End.

The coin was unveiled in the presence of Srilakshmi Kamath, Founding Director of ABARAN; Dr. Pratap Madhukar Kamath, Managing Director; Preethi Kamath, Director; and fourth-generation family members Sanyukta Pratap Kamath and Shiv Pratap Kamath.

Speaking at the event, Dr. Pratap Madhukar Kamath thanked customers in coastal Karnataka and Bengaluru for their continued support of the family business.

The company also announced SukanyaAbarana, a savings scheme for the girl child, coinciding with the International Day of the Girl Child on October 11. The initiative aims to encourage early savings and support financial security for young girls.

Additionally, Dr. Pratap Madhukar Kamath announced plans for corporate social responsibility initiatives in Udupi, where the family’s jewellery business originated.

ABARAN is also preparing to open a new flagship jewellery showroom in Udupi, marking an expansion into the city where the business began in 1935.
