In Mumbai, Maharashtra, Nayar was born and educated in a Gujarati household.

Unknown facts :

As she has said in many interviews, she was happy in Kotak Mahindra and it was very difficult for her to quit the job and start something on her own as “everything was going right” in Kotak.

However, Falguni had a “self-imposed deadline” that she has to give entrepreneurship a try by the time she is 50. And thus Nykaa was born in 2012 as Falguni exited from Kotak. At that time, her children (twin Anchit and Adwaita) left to study in the US and she had the time she needed to focus on her entrepreneurship project.

 In 2012, Nykaa started with 60 daily orders and never thought of cutting prices. “We’d rather sell the right colour of lipstick at full price, than the wrong shade at half off which would make the buyer unhappy within minutes of wearing,” Nayar told Bloomberg

Nykaa is a fully developed family business, with daughter Adwaita, who has an MBA from Harvard Firm School, leading the fashion vertical, and Falguni’s son Anchit, a Columbia University graduate, operating the beauty e-commerce business.

According to Forbes India Rich List, Falguni Nayar is now wealthier than the Muthoot family of Muthoot Finance, Chairman and Founder of Marico Harsh Mariwala, and Abhay Vakil of Asian Paints.

Falguni has admitted in previous interviews that she doesn’t believe in critics and that you should never give up.
