Baby Jalebi
Suraj Nehra, Rati Nehra and Gunia Chopra founded Baby Jalebi in 2013 when Rati and Chopra had babies. The brand started with one tailor and one woman to help iron and pack the products and today has hundreds of craftsmen working for it. Newborn essentials such as mittens and booties, changing stations, diaper caddies, baby bedding, diaper bags and gift boxes are available for purchase. They use 100 per cent organic cotton and their latest range focuses on hand embroidery.
Currently, they are busy expanding their range.

Cinta
It took Rupika Harshwardhan P three years of development to launch CINTA in 2024. The brand retails furniture, toys and decor, primarily crafted from a sustainable material rattan, rooted in traditional crafts. Some designs use water hyacinth. Their USP? Each piece (be it the Lyla Butterfly Chair, Little Lamb Bassinet or Luna Unicorn storage basket) is designed keeping a child's safety in mind.
