| Peer | Why the dossier compares them |
|---|---|
| Honasa Consumer Limited (HONASA) | Digital-first BPC house of brands; closest owned-brand growth/omnichannel distribution comparator, not a multi-brand retailer. |
| Hindustan Unilever Limited (HINDUNILVR) | Beauty/personal-care brand economics, premiumisation and distribution benchmark; diversified FMCG limits whole-company comparability. |
| Marico Limited (MARICO) | Personal-care/digital-first brand scaling and marketing-efficiency benchmark; manufacturing-heavy compared with Nykaa retail. |
| Shoppers Stop Limited (SHOPERSTOP) | Department-store/beauty-speciality retail comparator for store economics; greater offline and fashion exposure. |
| Trent Limited (TRENT) | Speciality fashion retail/store-productivity benchmark for Nykaa Fashion and physical expansion; largely private-label offline model. |
| Brainbees Solutions Limited (FIRSTCRY) | Category-focused omnichannel consumer e-commerce and owned-brand platform; customer acquisition/fulfilment comparator despite baby/child category mix. |
