D2C home and kitchen brand HomeEssentials has raised $2.2 million in seed funding from early-stage venture capital firm India Quotient, marking a major milestone in its rapid growth journey. Founded by brothers Tanishq and Divyam Jain in early 2024, the brand has quickly emerged as a disruptor in the homeware space by combining utility, aesthetic design, and affordability.
Launched with just ₹1 crore in bootstrap capital, HomeEssentials has seen an exponential rise in demand, growing from ₹30 lakh in revenue in its first month to over ₹10 crore in monthly sales within 18 months. The surge has been largely attributed to strong customer retention, high repeat purchase rates, and a product lineup that resonates with modern Indian households.
The newly raised funds will be deployed to expand the brand’s product catalog, upgrade its supply chain and technology stack, and fuel its offline expansion. As part of its omnichannel strategy, HomeEssentials will open two exclusive retail stores in Delhi NCR, with further rollouts in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities on the horizon. The company currently offers over 250 SKUs across kitchenware, storage, cleaning, and home organization categories and plans to broaden this portfolio further.
According to the founders, the focus remains on sustainable growth, profitability, and building consumer trust over chasing discount-led sales. With strong unit economics and operational efficiency, HomeEssentials is targeting ₹150 crore in annual revenue by the end of 2025 and ₹200 crore by FY2026.
“Our mission is to make everyday living more functional and beautiful. If we stay consistent on quality and trust, success will follow,” said CEO Tanishq Jain.
With this funding round, HomeEssentials is well-positioned to become a household name in India’s booming home and kitchen segment, offering thoughtfully designed essentials that bridge form and function in a cluttered market long dominated by legacy brands.
