From COVID Shutdown to ₹15+ Crore Success: How YEF Helped Navratan Sancheti Build a Global Beauty Manufacturing Brand

When Delhi-based 45-year-old Mr. Navratan Sancheti started his cosmetic manufacturing unit, the COVID-19 pandemic struck soon after. Operations collapsed, cash flow stopped, and he was forced to shut down the factory. With limited guidance, he struggled to understand how to revive the business or manage working capital during the crisis.

At this critical moment, Youth Economic Forum (YEF) provided timely mentorship. YEF supported him in restructuring the business, securing unsecured bank funding, managing working capital, completing regulatory compliances, and obtaining the Trademark.

Today, Pinaki Beauty Products Pvt. Ltd. has crossed ₹15 crore+ aggregate turnover in three years, acquired its rented factory, undertakes white labelling for renowned brands, and exports globally—turning a pandemic shutdown into a remarkable comeback story.
