It is redefining the way people perceive traditional jewellery by merging heritage craftsmanship with modern aesthetics
The brand has built a loyal following for its authentic and affordable designs crafted with 92.5% pure silver
The company’s mission is also to promote Jaipuri art and craftsmanship globally while creating meaningful livelihoods for artisans
Shyle has processed over 1.5 lakh orders. Its sales channels include: 82% through its own website, 8% exports, 7% Amazon, 3% other marketplaces
Shyle 2022-23 Revenue: ₹15 Crores. 2023-24 Revenue (Projected): ₹18 Crores, with ₹11 Crores achieved by November 2023. 2021-22 Revenue: ₹13 Crores
The founders pitched their startup on Shark Tank India, seeking ₹70 Lakhs for 1% equity, valuing the company at ₹70 Crores
Sharks Namita Thapar and Ritesh Agarwal: Offered ₹70 Lakhs for 1.5% equity and a 1% royalty until the ₹70 Lakhs was recovered
After initial deliberation, Namita and Ritesh revised their offer, reducing the royalty to 0.5%. The founders eventually accepted this revised deal
Future Plans: Expanding exports & targeting international markets, grow their audience, introducing new product lines (bridal jewellery or men’s accessories)
