Kimirica tells investors that its soaps and shower gels sit in more than 10,000 hotels and airline cabins, and that somewhere in the world a Kimirica product is used every two seconds. Yet the company that actually sells Kimirica to Indian shoppers, Kimirica Lifestyle Private Limited, booked between ₹10 crore and ₹50 crore of revenue in FY25 by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs range, a sliver of the ₹300 crore the group quoted when it raised money in August 2025.
That gap is the whole story. The luxury bath brand on Nykaa and at the Indore airport is the visible, small half of an Indore-built business whose engine is a hotel-amenities partnership registered in Mumbai, co-owned with a Canadian, and fed by Marriott since 2014. This piece separates the two entities, follows the money from a ₹15 lakh bank loan to a $15 million cheque from Carnelian, and lays out exactly which numbers are audited, which are company-stated, and which we could not verify at all.

What they do
Kimirica makes the small bottles you find in a hotel bathroom, and then sells bigger versions of the same idea to you directly. The two halves have different customers and different legal owners.
- Kimirica Hunter International LLP (B2B): manufactures shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, soap, lotion and dry amenities for hotel chains and airlines from Indore. Named clients across company statements and coverage include Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, Accor, Jumeirah, Leela and Air India (Entrackr, August 2025; Indian Retailer, March 2023).
- Kimirica Lifestyle Private Limited (D2C): the consumer brand launched in 2019 and housed in a separate company from January 2022. Categories are skincare, body care, fine fragrance, luxury gifting, home fragrance and, from 2025, a men’s grooming line called The Gentleman (Entrackr, August 2025).
- Channels for the consumer brand: its own website, Amazon, Nykaa, Flipkart, Myntra, Tira, quick-commerce apps including Zepto, Blinkit and Swiggy Instamart, seven flagship stores, ten hotel boutiques and more than 25 shop-in-shop counters, per the brand’s store locator as of September 2026.
- Positioning: 100% vegan, paraben-free, cruelty-free and fairtrade-certified formulations, with a stated “procure within 100” policy of sourcing primary inputs within 100 km of Indore (Indian Retailer, July 2026; YourStory, May 2023).
- Reach, company-stated: exports to more than 70 countries and supplies to more than 10,000 hotels and airlines (August 2025 funding releases). Earlier company statements put the hotel count at 1,500-plus and the country count at 22-plus (Indian Retailer, March 2023), so treat the 10,000 figure as a claim, not an audited count.
The origin
In 2012 two brothers from Indore, Rajat Jain, then 27, and Mohit Jain, then 25, borrowed ₹15 lakh from a bank and set up in 100 square feet of their father’s factory, according to The Weekend Leader’s July 2023 profile. The father made Ayurvedic staples: hair oil, chyawanprash, everyday remedies. Rajat had a master’s degree in Ayurvedic pharmacy and took production. Mohit had an integrated master’s in marketing from the University of Birmingham and took sales, carrying samples in a briefcase on a two-wheeler. They started with five products and seven workers.
The insight was not about beauty. It was about import substitution. By the company’s own account, roughly 90% of the toiletries used in Indian hotels at the time were imported from China (Entrackr, August 2025). A hotel chain wanting an amenity line made to international specification had no serious Indian option. The brothers’ bet was that a small Indore factory that could formulate, fragrance and package to a global chain’s standard would win that business on cost, lead time and, eventually, on India-made provenance.
Madhya Pradesh Tourism was the first significant client. Then, in 2014, Marriott came looking for premium amenities made in India to international standards, as BW Hotelier reported in its piece marking the tenth anniversary of the relationship. Marriott’s decision replaced imported toiletries in its Indian hotels with fully Indian-made product and, in the trade publication’s framing, put Indore on the Asia-Pacific hospitality supply map. Jumeirah Maldives, Hyatt, Sahara Star and Starwood followed; Starwood was later absorbed by Marriott, which deepened the account (The Weekend Leader, July 2023).
The name came from home. Kimi Jain, who has an MBA in e-commerce, and Rica Jain, who holds a master’s in pharmacy with a specialisation in medicinal chemistry, are the brothers’ wives and co-founders. The brand is a blend of their first names. Rica runs quality assurance and process; Kimi runs brand experience (kimirica.com leadership page; YourStory, May 2023).
The struggle years
The first hard truth was that a hotel-amenities supplier is only as good as the brands it can put on the bottle. Global chains do not want a generic; they want a licensed fragrance or skincare name that guests recognise. That is why, on 23 March 2017, the brothers incorporated a new LLP in Mumbai with Hunter Amenities, the Burlington, Ontario company founded by John Hunter that holds more than 45 licensed brands across fragrance, hair, skin and wellness. John Daniel Hunter is a designated partner of Kimirica Hunter International LLP to this day, per MCA records summarised by Tofler. The Indo-Canadian venture gave the Indore plant a brand portfolio it could never have built alone, and it is the reason the B2B arm is not simply called Kimirica.
The second hard truth arrived with the consumer launch. In 2019, prompted by hotel guests asking where to buy the products, the family launched Kimirica Lifestyle. Four to five months in, the brand had about 2,500 customers, a number the co-founders themselves described to YourStory in May 2023 as the early setback. A hotel supplier knows how to win one buyer worth thousands of rooms; it does not automatically know how to win thousands of buyers worth one basket each.
Then came 2020. Hotels represented 80% of Kimirica’s revenue, retail and online the other 20%, and when Covid-19 shut Indian hospitality, hotel orders ceased, as The Weekend Leader recorded. A business built for a decade on one channel watched that channel go to zero. The response was to push into the channel that had been struggling: the website launched properly in 2020, and physical retail began with a store at Mumbai airport, followed by Hyderabad and Indore, reaching about 40 outlets and kiosks by December 2022 (ThePrint/ANI press release, 20 December 2022).
The third pressure was capital and focus. Growth on this scale was funded by the family and by bank debt, not venture money. MCA charge records summarised by Tofler show two ICICI Bank facilities secured against the LLP in December 2023, ₹17.5 crore on 5 December and ₹8.4 crore on 6 December, ₹25.9 crore in total. At the same time the founders were spreading themselves: Rajat and Mohit launched Pataa, a digital-addressing app, in 2022 and raised $2.5 million in seed funding for it, and the family holding, Kimirica Ventures, listed six sister companies from coffee to wellness in its December 2022 release. Building a luxury brand while running a factory, a JV and a tech startup is the kind of load that breaks smaller teams.
The turning point
The turning point was the spring of 2020, when the hotel order book went to nothing. Everything Kimirica is today, the stores, the marketplaces, the separate consumer company and ultimately the Carnelian cheque, traces back to the decision made in those months to treat the consumer brand as a business rather than a souvenir shelf.
On one side of that line: a supplier with 80% of revenue from hotels, about 2,500 consumer customers after its first months of D2C, exports to around 30 countries, and no dedicated consumer entity. On the other: by May 2023 the consumer brand counted more than 500,000 customers, about 75% of its sales came online and 25% offline, it held stores at three airports (Mumbai, Indore, Hyderabad), a flagship at Phoenix Citadel in Indore and a store at Select Citywalk in Delhi, and the group carried around 250 SKUs and 600 employees, 80% of them women (YourStory, May 2023). Kimirica Lifestyle Private Limited was incorporated on 7 January 2022 precisely to hold that new business, and by March 2023 the group was telling Indian Retailer it had 50-plus outlets and kiosks and a target of 100-plus stores within five years.
The B2B engine recovered too. By July 2023 The Weekend Leader was reporting a ₹100 crore turnover, 200 products and 700 employees in a 1.5 lakh square foot campus near Indore airport. By August 2025 the number the company and its new investor used was ₹300 crore for the group. The pandemic did not change what Kimirica manufactures. It changed who Kimirica thought its customer was.
The money behind it
Kimirica ran for thirteen years without institutional equity. The funding shape is a bank loan, a strategic joint venture, secured working-capital debt and then a single growth cheque.
- 2012, ₹15 lakh bank loan: the founding capital, borrowed by the brothers to start in their father’s factory (The Weekend Leader, July 2023).
- 23 March 2017, Hunter Amenities joint venture: Kimirica Hunter International LLP incorporated with a stated capital contribution of about ₹1.96 lakh; four designated partners and three other partners, including John Daniel Hunter (Tofler and IndiaFilings summaries of MCA records). What Hunter changed: access to a portfolio of licensed amenity brands and the credibility to sit in Marriott, Hilton and Hyatt tenders worldwide.
- 7 January 2022, Kimirica Lifestyle Private Limited: incorporated in Indore with authorised capital of ₹15 lakh and paid-up capital of ₹1.82 lakh; directors Rajat Jain and Mohit Jain (Tofler, Falconebiz). A tiny share capital base means the consumer business was funded by group cash and loans rather than by equity issued at this entity.
- December 2023, ₹25.9 crore in ICICI Bank charges: two secured facilities registered against the LLP within two days of each other (Tofler charge records). This is the working-capital and capex debt behind the B2B expansion.
- Early 2025, a nominee director joins the D2C board: Deepak Malik was appointed nominee director of Kimirica Lifestyle Private Limited; Falconebiz dates it 15 February 2025 and Tracxn 16 April 2025. The filings summaries do not name the nominating investor. A nominee seat months before a funding announcement is the usual footprint of a deal being papered.
- 12 August 2025, $15 million from Carnelian Asset Management LLP: the Vikas Khemani-led firm’s investment covers both Kimirica Hunter and Kimirica Lifestyle (Entrackr, Indian Retailer, YourStory, all August 2025). Tracxn labels it a Series B and lists Carnelian as the sole participant. Post-money valuation was not disclosed anywhere we could open. Khemani called the company one of the finest he had seen in infrastructure and vision, per Indian Retailer. What Carnelian changes: it is a public-markets house, and the company’s own release tied the partnership to a potential listing.
- Total disclosed equity raised: $15 million, in one round. Crunchbase’s search listing also names HOB Ventures as an investor, but we could not open the underlying page or find a second source, so we do not count it.
How it makes money
Think of Kimirica as a factory with two front doors. One door opens on a procurement manager at a hotel chain; the other opens on a shopper at Nykaa. The product is similar. The economics are not.
- Money in, B2B (the LLP): volume contracts with hotel chains and airlines for guest-room and in-flight amenities, sold under Kimirica’s own lines and under brands licensed through the Hunter portfolio. The company describes this as India’s largest hotel-amenities manufacturing operation, a claim we could not independently size. Mohit Jain told Indian Retailer in March 2023 that Kimirica held about 70% of India’s hotel-amenities market; we found no independent estimate, so read it as a founder figure.
- Money in, D2C (the Pvt Ltd): full-price retail of bath, body, skincare, fragrance and gift sets through the brand’s website, marketplaces, quick commerce, seven flagship stores and hotel boutiques, plus wholesale to 15 to 20 stockists and shop-in-shop partners such as Shoppers Stop and Lifestyle (Entrepreneur, May 2024; store locator, September 2026). About 75% of Lifestyle’s sales were online as of May 2023.
- Costs out: manufacturing at the 1.5 lakh square foot Lunavat campus near Indore airport, with the stated policy of sourcing primary inputs within 100 km. Labour is the other big line: about 700 employees in 2023 (The Weekend Leader), with the company saying in 2025 that more than 55% of its workforce are women and that it supports 3,000-plus indirect jobs (Startup Story, August 2025).
- Where the margin sits: the company does not publish segment margins. Structurally, B2B amenities is a low-price, high-volume contract business where the customer dictates specification and payment terms, while D2C carries the pricing power but also marketplace commissions, store rents and marketing. Registry summaries of the D2C entity’s FY24 filing (Tofler, Falconebiz) show total revenue up 62.9% year on year but book net worth down 50.8%, a combination consistent with a small company growing fast while absorbing losses or drawing down reserves. We do not have the underlying statements, so we cannot say which.
- Capacity ahead of demand: the group is developing a 6 lakh square foot integrated plant in Indore that it says can produce ₹1,500 crore to ₹2,000 crore of goods a year (Indian Retailer, August 2025), against about ₹300 crore of current group revenue.
- The part people get wrong: “Kimirica raised $15 million at ₹300 crore revenue” reads like a D2C beauty story. It is mostly a manufacturing story. The consumer entity’s own FY25 revenue range tops out at ₹50 crore, at most about a sixth of the group figure. The brand is the growth option; the LLP is the business.
The numbers
Neither entity publishes a profit and loss account in the open. What exists is a trail of company-stated turnover figures, which do not always agree with each other, plus revenue bands derived from MCA filings by registry aggregators. We lay out both and label each row.
| Period / statement | Revenue (₹ crore) | Profit or loss (₹ crore) | Basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Group turnover, “within ten years” of 2012 (stated July 2023) | 100 | Not disclosed | Company-stated to The Weekend Leader |
| Group annual turnover (stated March 2023) | 200 | Not disclosed | Company-stated to Indian Retailer |
| Combined turnover, Kimirica Hunter plus Lifestyle (stated May 2023) | About 600 | Not disclosed | Company-stated to YourStory; an outlier against every other figure and against the FY25 MCA bands below |
| Kimirica Lifestyle Pvt Ltd, FY24 (year to 31 March 2024) | Band ₹1 crore to ₹100 crore; total revenue up 62.9% on FY23 | Not disclosed; book net worth down 50.8% | Tofler and Falconebiz summaries of MCA filing |
| Kimirica Hunter International LLP, FY25 (year to 31 March 2025) | Band ₹100 crore to ₹500 crore | Not disclosed | Tracxn summary of MCA filing |
| Kimirica Lifestyle Pvt Ltd, FY25 (year to 31 March 2025) | Band ₹10 crore to ₹50 crore | Not disclosed | Tracxn summary of MCA filing |
| Group revenue at funding (stated August 2025) | About 300 | Not disclosed | Company-stated; repeated by Entrackr, Indian Retailer, YourStory |
Three things to note. First, the ₹300 crore group figure sits comfortably inside the LLP’s ₹100 crore to ₹500 crore FY25 band plus the Pvt Ltd’s ₹10 crore to ₹50 crore band, so the audited ranges and the latest company statement are consistent. Second, the ₹600 crore figure quoted in May 2023 is not consistent with those bands and we treat it as an error in the retelling, not a data point. Third, the targets are large relative to the base: ₹1,000 crore of revenue within three to four years of August 2025 implies more than tripling, and the new plant’s stated ₹1,500 crore to ₹2,000 crore capacity is five to nearly seven times current revenue.
Other operating data points with dates, all company-stated unless noted:
- Products: 5 at launch in 2012; 200 by July 2023 (The Weekend Leader); 250-plus SKUs by May 2023 (YourStory).
- Employees: 7 at launch; 600 in May 2023, 80% women (YourStory); 700 in July 2023 (The Weekend Leader); more than 500 in the manufacturing division and 55%-plus women in 2025 (Moneymint, October 2025; Startup Story, August 2025).
- Consumer customers: about 2,500 four to five months after the 2019 launch; 500,000-plus by May 2023 (YourStory).
- Retail footprint: 40-plus outlets and kiosks by December 2022 (ThePrint/ANI); 50-plus by March 2023 (Indian Retailer); a sixth standalone store at Indore airport in July 2026 (Indian Retailer); seven flagship stores, ten hotel boutiques and 25-plus shop-in-shops listed in September 2026 (store locator).
- Secured debt: ₹25.9 crore of ICICI Bank charges registered against the LLP in December 2023 (Tofler).
Where the money comes from
The split below combines the last channel numbers the company disclosed with the entity-level bands from the filings.
- By customer type (July 2023): hotels 80% of revenue; retail and online 20% (The Weekend Leader). No later split has been published; the MCA bands for FY25 imply the consumer entity was at most about a sixth of the group.
- Within the consumer brand (May 2023): about 75% online, 25% offline (YourStory). Online means the brand’s site plus Amazon, Nykaa, Flipkart, Myntra, Tira and quick-commerce apps.
- By geography: exports to about 30 countries in 2023, spanning the Middle East, Italy, France, Canada and the United States (The Weekend Leader), reported as 22-plus countries in March 2023 (Indian Retailer) and 70-plus by August 2025 (Entrackr). The stated priority export markets for the new plant are the United States, the Middle East and Europe (Entrepreneur, August 2025).
- By client, B2B: Marriott since 2014, later Hilton, Hyatt, Accor, Jumeirah, Leela and Air India, per company statements. The hotel count has been variously stated as 1,500-plus (March 2023), 1,000-plus (Entrackr, August 2025) and 10,000-plus (most August 2025 releases); the wide spread suggests different definitions, perhaps properties versus contracts, and we could not reconcile them.
- By store format, consumer (September 2026): seven flagships in Mumbai (two), Indore (four, including the airport and the Marriott hotel) and Gurugram; ten boutiques inside hotels such as JW Marriott Juhu and Kolkata, Hyatt Chandigarh and the Serai and Niraamaya resorts; 25-plus shop-in-shop counters (store locator).
The surprise is where the consumer footprint sits: four of the seven flagship stores are in Indore, the founders’ home city, and one of them is inside a Marriott. The luxury brand still grows most easily in the shadow of the hotel business that created it. The second surprise is administrative but telling: the B2B LLP that does most of the revenue is registered not in Indore but at a business park in Andheri East, Mumbai, while the small consumer company carries the Indore address.
The risks
- Concentration in hospitality, with a proven failure mode. The last published split had 80% of revenue from hotels (July 2023), and the group’s own history shows what happens when that channel stops: in 2020 hotel orders ceased outright. The Marriott relationship dates to 2014 and is the anchor account; large chains re-tender amenity contracts, and a chain-level switch to a rival supplier, or to a different amenity format such as refillable dispensers in place of single-use bottles, would hit the LLP directly. Production is also concentrated in one city, Indore, with the new 6 lakh square foot plant adding to, not diversifying from, that hub.
- Capacity and targets running far ahead of audited revenue. Group revenue is about ₹300 crore (company-stated, August 2025). The company is building capacity it says is worth ₹1,500 crore to ₹2,000 crore a year and targeting ₹1,000 crore of revenue within three to four years. Even the target implies running the new plant at about half to two-thirds utilisation; missing it means a large fixed-cost base sitting idle. This expansion is being financed partly with debt: ₹25.9 crore of ICICI charges were registered in December 2023, before the Carnelian equity arrived. The public numbers also do not always agree with each other (₹100 crore, ₹200 crore and ₹600 crore were all quoted for the group in 2023), which is the kind of inconsistency a listing process would force the company to clean up.
- D2C economics and platform dependence. About 75% of the consumer brand’s sales were online as of May 2023, and much of that flows through Amazon, Nykaa, Tira and quick-commerce apps that set commissions, promotions and placement. The consumer entity’s FY24 filing summary shows revenue up 62.9% but book net worth down 50.8%, which is what fast, loss-absorbing growth looks like at a small scale. Luxury bath and body is also a category where the founders’ first months produced only 2,500 customers; reaching the stated 100-plus stores means taking on rents at airports and malls, the most expensive retail real estate in India, with a brand whose revenue band is still ₹10 crore to ₹50 crore.
- Founder bandwidth. The same two brothers who run a factory, a joint venture with a Canadian partner and a consumer brand also launched Pataa in 2022 with $2.5 million of seed funding, and the family holding lists six other sister companies. Carnelian is buying into the founders’ judgment as much as the assets; that judgment is now spread across more ventures than most single-company boards would accept.
The takeaway
The transferable lesson from Kimirica is that a consumer brand can be earned before it is launched. For seven years the Jains made toiletries to Marriott’s specification, on Marriott’s timelines, at contract-manufacturing prices. That grind is where they learnt formulation, fragrance, packaging, compliance and cost, and it is what paid for the 1.5 lakh square foot campus that later made a luxury brand credible. When the consumer launch stumbled in 2019 and hotel revenue vanished in 2020, the factory was already there, the products were already good, and the only missing skill was selling to individuals, which is the one skill that can be learnt fastest.
The corollary is a discipline about entities and numbers. Kimirica’s founders were right to put the consumer business into its own company in January 2022, because it lets an investor, or a future public market, see the B2B engine and the brand option separately. They have been less careful with the figures they give journalists. A business that wants to be worth ₹1,000 crore of revenue and listed should want its own story to reconcile to its filings. The ones that do are the ones that survive diligence.
Frequently asked questions
Is Kimirica the hotel-amenities company or the D2C beauty brand?
Both, but through different legal entities. Kimirica Hunter International LLP, incorporated on 23 March 2017 with Canada’s Hunter Amenities, makes toiletries for hotels and airlines and sits in the ₹100 crore to ₹500 crore FY25 revenue band. Kimirica Lifestyle Private Limited, incorporated on 7 January 2022, sells the consumer brand and sits in the ₹10 crore to ₹50 crore FY25 band, per MCA-derived summaries on Tracxn.
Who founded Kimirica and when?
Brothers Rajat Jain and Mohit Jain started it in Indore in 2012 with a ₹15 lakh bank loan inside their father’s Ayurvedic products factory, according to The Weekend Leader. Their wives Kimi Jain and Rica Jain are co-founders, and the brand name combines their first names. The company’s 2025 releases give 2013 as the founding year.
How much money has Kimirica raised and at what valuation?
One disclosed institutional round: $15 million (about ₹144 crore) from Carnelian Asset Management LLP, announced on 12 August 2025, covering both the B2B and D2C arms. No valuation was disclosed in any coverage we could access. Before that the company was funded by family capital and bank debt, including ₹25.9 crore of ICICI Bank facilities registered in December 2023.
Did Kimirica appear on Shark Tank India?
We found no record of a Kimirica pitch in Shark Tank India episode listings or in any news coverage of the show across seasons one to five, and the company’s own funding history shows no shark as an investor. If you have seen the claim, it does not match the public record as of September 2026.
What is Kimirica’s revenue and is it profitable?
The group quoted about ₹300 crore of revenue when it raised funds in August 2025, a figure consistent with the FY25 MCA bands for its two entities. Neither entity publishes a profit and loss account in the open; the D2C company’s FY24 registry summary shows revenue up 62.9% but net worth down 50.8%, which points to losses or reserve drawdown at that entity. We could not verify profitability for the LLP.
