A diamond ring for men is built differently from a woman's ring: a broader band, more weight in the gold, and a diamond set low enough for a working day. Our men's rings run from around ₹69,000 to ₹5.2 lakh in 14k gold, and every diamond meets the same standard as hers: VVS clarity, E colour, ideal cut, IGI certified.
What makes a men's diamond ring different
Three things set it apart. The band is broader and heavier, so the gold carries as much of the design as the diamond. The diamond tends to sit low, set into the band or held close to it, so the ring copes with a desk, a steering wheel and a handshake. And the shapes lean geometric: round diamonds in square settings, and princess, emerald and radiant cuts whose straight edges suit a wide band.
The diamond itself does not change. Every Nivara diamond, in his ring or hers, is VVS clarity, E colour and ideal cut, IGI certified, and on solitaires the report number is laser inscribed on the stone.
Men's engagement rings
At an Indian ring ceremony both of you put on a ring. His is easy to leave until last, after hers is chosen, yet he will wear it just as long. Give it the same care: the same gold colour as hers, the same diamond standard, and a design he would pick for himself. Our guide to couple rings for your ring ceremony shows three pairs chosen this way.
A single round diamond in a broad band is the classic men's engagement ring. Prices are for 14k gold and move with the gold rate; every ring also comes in 18k.
Veer Apex broad band solitaire, from around ₹1,98,500. A round diamond in four white gold prongs on a broad, flat topped gold band, 1.00 carat. Nothing else on the ring.
Mode Vertex solitaire, from around ₹1,22,500. A round diamond in white gold prongs, with small square diamonds set into the shoulders and an openwork pattern along the sides, 1.14 carat in all.
Vira dual tone solitaire, from around ₹1,51,000. A round diamond in white gold prongs, on a band of yellow and white gold side by side, 1.00 carat.
Men's diamond ring designs
Set low for every day
For a ring that never comes off, choose a diamond set into the band. Nothing rises to catch on a cuff or knock against a desk.
Veer Arc flush set, from around ₹88,000. A round diamond set level with the surface of a plain gold band with bevelled edges, 0.16 carat.
Veer Lumen bezel set, from around ₹86,000. A round diamond in a rim of gold, on a band ridged on either side of the stone, 0.17 carat.
Square and rectangular diamonds
Straight edges sit naturally in a broad band and give the ring a sharper outline than a round.
Amora princess cut, from around ₹71,000. A square princess cut diamond set into the top of a flat gold band, 0.50 carat.
Amara emerald cut, from around ₹1,25,000. An emerald cut diamond, with its long step facets, set into a flat gold band, 0.81 carat.
Mode Comet radiant cut, from around ₹5,22,500. A large radiant cut diamond held at each end by white gold, on a broad yellow gold band with open sides, 3.51 carat in all. The largest diamond weight among our men's rings.
Bands and statement rings
Mode Stratos channel band, from around ₹1,03,500. A line of small round diamonds channel set into a gold band, 0.45 carat in all. It wears like a wedding band.

Diamond ring for men: price
Our men's rings run from around ₹69,000 to around ₹5.2 lakh in 14k gold. Two things set the price: the diamond and the gold. Every Nivara diamond is priced at ₹50,000 per carat, the same in his ring and in hers, with the gold and setting added. A broad band holds more gold than a slim one, and 18k holds more pure gold than 14k, so either raises the price. Prices move with the gold rate.
Here is what that looks like with the diamond held the same. Each of these four men's solitaires carries a single 1.00 carat diamond.
| Ring | The band | From, in 14k gold |
|---|---|---|
| Vira dual tone | Yellow and white gold side by side, the diamond in white gold prongs | ₹1,51,000 |
| Veer Sirius | Flat topped, the diamond held by a curved white gold claw | ₹1,64,000 |
| Veer Cipher | Broad and flat, the diamond held between two raised gold bars | ₹1,74,500 |
| Veer Apex | Broad and flat topped, the diamond in four white gold prongs | ₹1,98,500 |
The diamond is the same in all four, so the gap between them comes from the band: how much gold it holds and how it is made. Comparing jewellers as well as rings? Our guide to the top lab grown diamond brands in India sets out eight questions to put to any brand, ours included.
Men's ring sizes
Men's sizes run larger. Our India ring size chart puts the usual men's sizes at 16 to 20 on the Indian scale; for women it is 12 to 14. Here is that range from the chart.
| Indian size | US size | UK size | Inner diameter (mm) | Inner circumference (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16 | 8.5 | Q | 18.14 | 57.0 |
| 17 | 9 | R | 18.54 | 58.3 |
| 18 | 9.5 | S | 18.95 | 59.5 |
| 19 | 10 | T | 19.35 | 60.8 |
| 20 | 10.5 | U | 19.76 | 62.1 |
Our men's rings are offered in Indian sizes 14 to 28, and each is made to order in his. Measure in the evening, when fingers are fullest, and on the hand he will wear it. A broad band covers more of the finger than a slim one, so it can feel snugger in the same size: try one on if you can. If the fit is not right, we resize free of charge within 30 days of purchase.
The pieces listed on our website usually take 18 to 20 days to deliver, depending on the design. If the ceremony date is set, ask for the ready date of the exact ring before you order.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a diamond ring for men?
At Nivara, men's diamond rings run from around ₹69,000 to around ₹5.2 lakh in 14k gold. The diamond is priced at ₹50,000 per carat for VVS clarity and E colour, with the gold and setting added, so a broad band costs more than a slim one carrying the same diamond. Prices move with the gold rate.
Is the diamond in a men's ring the same quality as in a woman's ring?
Yes. Nivara holds every diamond to one standard, whatever the ring: VVS clarity, E colour, ideal cut, IGI certified, and on solitaires the report number is laser inscribed on the stone. A lab grown diamond rates 10 on the Mohs hardness scale, the same as a mined one, so it suits a ring worn every day.
What ring size do men wear in India?
Our India ring size chart puts the usual men's sizes at 16 to 20 on the Indian scale, which is US 8.5 to 10.5. Our men's rings are offered in Indian sizes 14 to 28 and made to order in yours. If the fit is not right, we resize free of charge within 30 days of purchase.
Do you make men's diamond rings in platinum?
Our men's rings are made in BIS hallmarked gold, 14k or 18k, in yellow, rose or white. If he likes the cool colour of platinum, white gold gives that look. The Vira solitaire puts yellow and white gold side by side in one band.
Which finger does a man wear his engagement ring on?
The ring finger, the one beside the little finger. Which hand is a matter of family custom, and either is correct, so follow the one that matters to you both. Size the ring for the hand he will wear it on, since the same finger can differ in size from left to right.
