Rise of business idea:-
Varun Alagh and Ghazal’s son Agastya had a skin-borne disease called eczema at the time of his birth. Agastya’s skin was allergic to several products and had become red and itchy when it came into contact with certain products with chemicals. Doctors advised her to use toxin-free baby care products available in the market for her son. It was difficult for the couple to find natural skin care products for their son as most of the baby care products in India contained toxins. As the couple did not want to compromise on the health of their child, they often asked their relatives and friends traveling abroad to bring a toxin-free product for their son. Tired of the hassle involved in arranging suitable products for their child, Varun Alagh and Ghazal came up with the idea of manufacturing their own toxin free products for kids and adults. He named his brand ‘Mamaearth’. The company earned revenue of Rs. 22.19 lakh in the financial year 2017 and Rs. 112 crore revenue in the financial year 2020. In 2021, its revenue will be Rs. 500 crores.
