It was great speaking at the Brand Capital, India (part of Benett Coleman & Co Limited (Times Goup)) town hall yesterday morning. 🙌 I spoke about the growing Direct to Consumer (D2C) ecosystem in India, and teams from all over India joined. My top 10 pointers are shared below: 👇 1. D2C was hardly a billion-dollar market four years back. It will become a 61.3 bn$ market by 2027. 📉 2. Last year, 520 D2C startups raised $5 billion, and the top 177 generated revenue of 34,359.9 CR. 💰 3. Top D2C companies by revenue 2023 - Lenskart (3788 CR), Boat (3376 CR), Caratlane (2168 CR) and Kushal's (1909 CR). 4. Top D2C profitable startups 2023 - Kushal's (157.28 CR), Caratlane (82.08 CR), Oziva (58.3 CR) and Rare Rabbit (32.23 CR). 5. Top D2C companies by funding 2023 - Lenskart (1120.57 CR), Licious (587.1 CR), The Good Glamm group (221 CR) 6. D2C brands with the best burn rate - Lahori Jeera (Rs 0.96), Zappfresh (Rs 0.96), Caratlane (Rs 0.95), Namhya (Rs 0.92) 7. 126 D2C startups are already in the growth phase in India. 🙌 8. Gone are the days when people would buy loyalty. Price is taking over loyalty in the long run. ✅ 9. Disruption is prevalent. Quick commerce on e-commerce, modern retail on general retail and D2C over distributors. 10. What I look for in D2C brands - Revenue = 2x (funding raised), COGS < 50%, NPS > 60%. 💼 ➡️ Tell me what you learned about building/investing in a D2C brand. PS - Thanks, Mohit Aggarwal, for giving me this opportunity. 🙏

I get that disruption is key, but are we really saying traditional retail is dead?

Sure, the D2C market is booming, but how many of these brands can actually sustain growth without constant injections of VC money???

Quick commerce craze has taken over the D2C craze to some extent.

The focus on burn rate (Point 6) is such a refreshing change. It’s about time startups prioritized profitability over vanity metrics
