Society has turned so competitive that every parent wants to give the best to their children so that they can fit in properly in this competitive world, and thereby achieve success. We are falling into distress due to numerous family-related problems. Pressures and tensions build up in every section of the society and it touches almost every person, whether it is a young or an aged person.

In order to find out the influencing factors behind the buying behavior of the respondents, factor analysis method was considered appropriate. The present study investigated the socioeconomic status of the households, when, and under whose influence they started using gemstones and yantras.
