The Indian startup ecosystem has seen a burgeoning trend of Couple-preneurs – dynamic duos who have joined forces to establish and steer their ventures to success.

These remarkable partnerships have not only laid the foundations but have also skillfully nurtured their enterprises together.

As Valentine’s Day approaches, we spotlight five resilient Indian businesses founded by couple-preneurs, exemplifying not only rapid growth within a short timeframe but also establishing themselves as leaders in their respective categories. Let’s dive into the inspiring stories of these entrepreneurial pairs!

Ghazal and Varun Alagh, Mamaearth

Mamaearth, a venture by the entrepreneurial duo Ghazal and Varun Alagh under Honasa Consumer Pvt Limited (HCPL), established in 2016 and achieved Unicorn status in 2022.

Swati and Rohan Bhargava, CashKaro

Founded in 2013 by the power couple Swati and Rohan Bhargava, CashKaro, India’s No. 1 Cashback & Coupons app has achieved a remarkable revenue milestone of Rs 252 Crores in the fiscal year 2023. Demonstrating its unwavering commitment to facilitating growth for its partners, the platform has recorded an exceptional Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) of Rs 4,500 Crores. CashKaro is considered the country’s go-to savings destination for shoppers, offering Cashback, Coupons, and Price Comparison on a single platform. When users shop via CashKaro on sites like Amazon, Myntra, Nykaa, etc, it receives a commission from partner sites for driving the sale. A large portion of this commission is passed on to the users as Real Cashback that they can transfer to their bank. CashKaro raised Rs 130 Crores ($16 million) led by Affle Global Pte. Ltd. (AGPL), bringing their total raised thus far to Rs 250 Crores.

Anand Shahani and Mehak Sagar, WedMeGood

When Anand Shahani and Mehak Sagar decided to get married four years ago, it was the harrowing experience of organising their wedding which prompted them to launch WedMeGood. Realising the concept of a big fat Indian wedding market was here to stay, it made business sense for the young couple to start WedMeGood, a marketplace for all wedding-based products and services. WedMeGood connects users looking for wedding services to vendors who provide these services. The portal compiles a list of vendors from Photographers, Makeup Artists, Jewellery Brands, and decorators to help couples find the best professionals. Users can browse through extensive details of vendors, including reviews, prices, contact information, and other FAQs.

The CEO, Vineeta Singh, and COO, Kaushik Mukherjee, steer SUGAR’s global operations, dispatching best-selling beauty products across Lips, Eyes, Face, Nails & Skin categories from cutting-edge facilities in Germany, Italy, India, the United States, and Korea.
