Akankssha
Kanwaal

In 2015 she started with ₹5,000 and ten sarees on a Facebook page. By 2024 she had built a ₹50 crore brand and exited as Director. Since then: 1,000+ students mentored, pharma brands scaled past ₹1,000 crore, government projects delivered. Now she helps good brands find their next gear — growing and scaling organically.

In 2015, the question everyone asked was simple. "Who will buy a saree online?"

She didn't argue with them. She just answered the question — one repeat customer at a time — until the whole market had to rethink what it thought it knew.

A bootstrapped brand. Pharma at scale. Government projects. She's grown at every level.

From ₹5,000 to ₹50 crore and an exit, to guiding pharma brands past ₹1,000 crore and delivering on government projects — she's seen growth from every angle. That range is exactly what she brings to brands ready for their next one.

The Journey

Ten sarees to a thousand founders

The story — and the mission it became.

2015

Ten sarees and a Facebook page

With just ₹5,000, she bought ten handloom sarees from a weaver in Phulia, opened a free Facebook page, and started selling. No capital, no plan B — just a belief that India would buy handloom online.

2017

The customers came back

Again and again. The repeat-customer model in online handloom was working — and a side hustle quietly became a real business.

2020

The hardest year

When the lockdown left weavers without work, she kept buying — keeping looms running and families paid. The worst year and the most defining one, at once.

2022

From a page to a brand

Beatitude had become the real thing — a team, a supply chain, and weavers with steady year-round work. All of it bootstrapped, every step on her own terms.

2024

The exit

She stepped away from Beatitude as its Director — the ₹50 crore brand she had built from a ₹5,000 start now standing fully on its own. One chapter closed, on purpose.

2025

The next level

The vision sharpens: take good brands to where they can't yet see. Already 1,000+ students and 100 startups mentored, pharma brands guided past a combined ₹1,000 crore, and government projects delivered — now channelled into helping established brands grow and scale organically.

"You don't need a big budget. You need passion — and the consistency to back it."

You're already good. Now let's scale it.

Her vision now: taking brands that are doing well — but stuck on how to grow — to their next level. Real, organic, sustainable scale; no vanity metrics, no shortcuts that break what's working. And for students and small founders with more passion than budget, the door stays open — bring consistency and a commitment to act, and she'll help with the rest.
