“Doing business must be fun, but at the same time, driven by a sense of good.” That is how I have spent my time so far. Since my early years, I have been a socially conscious person who is guided by the urge to leave the world a better place than I found it. Even while helping Image Consultancy Services prosper over the last decade, I have aimed to enable the firm towards a more positive and inclusive work culture that can help employees feel valued and supported. With the aim to bring a more inclusive work environment, I, as a Managing Partner, have taken steps to encourage and foster policies at Image Consultancy Services that are driven to promote sustainability without compromising on growth. Perhaps my constant drive to promote a more sustainable living led me to bring Umatr (earlier known as Seven Chakras) to life. For me, it all started two years ago with a small setup in Kolkata. The aim was very simple. Leading with a focused endeavour to create a unique, chemical-free, cruelty-free, lifestyle brand. With Umatr, I am on a mission to touch lives and bring joy and growth to myself and others. Apart from being a cruelty-free and chemical-free brand, Umatr is also a very environmentally-conscious brand. And even though, as the company has managed to grow , our ideology remains unchanged - to bring to you, uncomplicated, unique, natural products that are effective. Furthermore, I have also consciously attempted to give back to society. With Umatr, I have been providing the less-privileged women in our organization, an opportunity to take charge of their lives and become financially independent. Alongside, Umatr has also taken this a step further by setting aside part of its profits into a fund that pays for the education of the employees’ children. As I empower myself towards consciously creating a system that focuses on enabling and fostering positive change, I also am trying to equip others with me on this mission.
