HomeEssentials, a home and kitchen brand known for its modern, multi-use products, has raised $2.2 million in funding from early-stage venture capital firm India Quotient. The company plans to use the capital to expand into offline retail, aiming to merge its digital success with a physical footprint across metros and smaller cities.
Founded by entrepreneurs Tanishq and Divyam, the brand offers more than 250 products designed with utility, affordability and aesthetics in mind. The founders said their offline push is a strategic move to deepen market reach and build stronger consumer trust through in-store experiences.
HomeEssentials is targeting ₹150 crore in revenue by December 2025 and aims to reach ₹200 crore annually by the end of the financial year. The company is positioning itself to capture a significant share of India’s ₹31 billion home and kitchen market, focusing on young, urban consumers.
The startup’s emphasis on design-led functionality has resonated with online shoppers. Now, with plans for high-visibility retail locations in Tier 1, 2 and 3 cities, the brand seeks to provide a more tactile experience to consumers.
“We’re building more than just a brand—we’re building a lifestyle centered around thoughtful design and affordability,” the founders said in a statement. “Going offline allows us to meet our customers where they are and create deeper, lasting connections.”
India Quotient’s investment signals growing investor interest in sustainable and consumer-centric home brands tapping into underserved retail categories.
The company has not disclosed the valuation at which the funding was raised.
