The company's growth has been driven by a number of factors, including the rising demand for FMCG products in India, the increasing popularity of online shopping, and Honasa Consumer's strong brand portfolio.

Sixth Sense Ventures invested Rs 50 crore in Honasa Consumer in 2019, and its stake sale has generated a return of over 2x.
