EXPLANATORY STATEMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 102 OF THE COMPANIES ACT, 2013 (‘THE ACT’) FORMING PART OF THE NOTICE
Item No. 1
The Board of Directors of the Company (“Board”), at its Meeting held on February 12, 2021, had appointed Ms. Falguni Nayar as the Executive Chairperson, Managing Director, Chief Executive Officer (“EC, MD & CEO”) and consequently Key Managerial Personnel of the Company (Nykaa), for a period of five years with effect from February 12, 2021, to February 11, 2026. Ms. Falguni Nayar is the Founder of the Company and was appointed as the first director and CEO of the Company with effect from April 24, 2012. She inter alia is also an Executive Director on the Board of Nykaa E‑Retail Limited, a material subsidiary of the Company.
Ms. Falguni Nayar is the Founder, Executive Chairperson, MD and CEO of Nykaa, India’s leading beauty and lifestyle retailer, and is one of the country’s most influential entrepreneurs. Driven by a vision to make beauty a mainstream choice, she launched Nykaa in 2012 as a digital‑first, consumer‑tech beauty Company. Recognizing a vast, underserved beauty market, Ms. Falguni Nayar built a platform that combined curation, technology, and operational excellence. Under her leadership, Nykaa has emerged as India’s leading beauty retailer, playing a central role in developing the Indian beauty market, and earned recognition on
Time’s list of the 100 Most Influential Companies globally (2022).
Over the last 5 years, Nykaa has expanded beyond beauty, launching business verticals addressing a much larger TAM (Total Addressable Market) with success across platforms such as Nykaa Fashion, Superstore by Nykaa, and Nykaa Man . Nykaa also operates one of India’s largest portfolios of homegrown beauty and lifestyle brands , built on innovation, consumer trust, and scalability. Within this portfolio, Dot & Key remains India’s leading direct‑to‑consumer skincare brand; Nykaa Cosmetics is one of the largest makeup brands in the masstige category; Kay Beauty is India’s most‑loved celebrity beauty brand; Nykd is Nykaa’s fast‑growing in‑house lingerie brand; and Nykaa Wanderlust is a travel‑inspired, sensorial bath and body brand. Internationally, she has led Nykaa’s expansion into the Middle East with its omnichannel platform Nysaa and into the UK through a partnership with SpaceNK to launch Kay Beauty.
Under Ms. Falguni Nayar’s leadership, Nykaa achieved GMV of Rs 15,600 Cr and EBITDA of Rs 474 Cr in FY25, representing a 40%+ CAGR over the past five years . This strong growth was underpinned by exceptional capital efficiency as the Company has raised only around ~USD 140 million since its incorporation. Today, Nykaa serves 49 million consumers , retails over 9,000 brands across beauty and fashion , and operates 265 retail stores across India, establishing itself as a market‑defining Company. In 2021, Nykaa made history by going public, becoming India’s first and only woman-led unicorn to list within its first decade . Nykaa has emerged as one of the few profitable consumer‑tech companies to go public, creating substantial value for its early shareholders and cementing its position as a standout success in India’s consumer market.
Ms. Falguni Nayar began her career as a management consultant with A.F. Ferguson & Co., where she honed her skills in business strategy and corporate advisory. In 1993, she joined the Kotak Mahindra Group , where over the next 19 years she became one of the most influential voices in India’s investment-banking ecosystem . At Kotak, she helped define the institution’s role in a rapidly modernizing capital market.
Ms. Falguni Nayar’s remit expanded as she set up Kotak’s international offices in London and New York . She became a key architect of Kotak’s global investor outreach, leading roadshows across the US and Europe and positioning Indian companies on the world stage well before India became a mainstream investment destination. In 2005 , she was appointed Managing Director of Kotak Mahindra Capital Company Limited and served as Director at Kotak Securities Limited, steering the firm through marquee IPOs, major M&A transactions and market-defining mandates . Her leadership helped cement Kotak’s reputation as one of India’s most trusted advisors in capital markets . She operated at the intersection of strategy, governance and execution ‑ shaping both Kotak’s institutional ambition and the journeys of many Indian entrepreneurs. After nearly two decades at the highest levels of investment banking, she chose to take her accumulated insight, market understanding and conviction in India’s consumer story and build something of her own ‑ Nykaa.
An IIM Ahmedabad alumnus, Ms. Falguni Nayar holds a post‑ graduate diploma in management and is the recipient of prominent awards and accolades for the crucial role she plays in transforming India’s beauty, lifestyle, retail, and consumer technology sectors. She was inducted into Business Today’s Hall of Fame for being recognized among the Most Powerful Women for seven times consecutively . She was named the EY Entrepreneur of the Year 2022 , representing India at the EY World Entrepreneur of the Year Award (WEOY) in June 2022 . She was also awarded the Isidoro Alvarez Lifetime Achievement Medal at the World Retail Congress 2023.
