RISHI VERMA

MANAGEMENT GRADUATE & GEMOLOGIST

DIRECTOR

Rishi Verma is an award-winning Jeweller and a serial entrepreneur. After completing his graduation from The University of Technology, Sydney (Australia), he decided to polish his business acumen by first completing the masters of Business Administration from S.P. Jain College, Mumbai, and then joining his family business.

Using his modern age learnings for his fifth generation Jewellery Business, Rishi took Fateh Chand Bansi Lal Jewellers from being a regular Jewellery shop to becoming a multi-boutique Award-winning Jewellery Brand.

As an ardent follower of Yogic lifestyle, Rishi loves to meditate & manifest, while ensuring to channelise his energy towards building brands that serve a bigger purpose.

Fateh Chand Bansi Lal Jewellers

The now-120-year old Jewellery Business became a brand when Rishi Verma envisioned to educate the Indian market about correct and less-talked-about Jewellery buying practices. His educational content started to go viral and was viewed by millions of people that appreciated his concern for the clients and honestly towards his trade. As a result, Fateh Chand Bansi Lal Jewellers grew multiple folds within a short span of time. Under Rishi's leadership, Fateh Chand Bansi Lal Jewellers won the 'Coolest Jewellery Store of North India' award at the Couture India Award Show, held on September 29, 2018, at The Taj Palace, New Delhi. Subsequently, he received the Zee Business Award award for "Most unique Jewellery Collection of 2021" on behalf of Fateh Chand Bansi Lal Jewellers.

NEESH Perfumes

Being in a family that was always fond of fragrances, Rishi often found himself troubled with the fact that the maximum perfumery raw materials were produced in India but no Indian brand ever emerged in the global landscape of perfume market. As a result, NEESH™ was formed. NEESH™ is a haute parfumerie that works with award-winning master perfumers, who have earlier worked for Clive Christian & Tom Ford, to blend luxury fine fragrances with day-long lingering effect. As of 2022, NEESH is one of the biggest D2C perfume brands, globally, with distribution in UAE, USA, UK, Singapore, Malasiya, and Europe.

EKYAM Sattvic Kitchen

Rishi had a divine realization during his meditative period in a Vipassana center.
During his course of stay, he realised that his lifelong problems of stomach ache, bloating, and lethargy vanished when he started to eat the food that was served there. Upon enquiry, he was informed that the food was cooked using the Sattvic diet methods and hence, it promoted vitality, increased life, and kept the mind relaxed. That is when he realised that the way to a prosperous life goes through a healthy gut.
However, when he returned back, he couldn't find any eateries that served clean and healthy food. And if there were any, the food was either too bland or too expensive.
When he met many other like minded people who wanted to eat a clean, healthy, and tasty diet but couldn't find any options – his entrepreneurial mind saw an opportunity in that arising problem.
And that is how EKYAM Sattvic Kitchen was born.
EKYAM Sattvic Kitchen is the only fine dining concept that serves clean, light, and healthy food at a mass-market price with no compromise on taste; in an era where people are becoming more conscious about what goes in their body.
And since EKYAM is built on the foundation of serving people with pure intentions, every plate of food served at EKYAM feeds two people. Because against every plate of food sold, EKYAM donates a plate of food to the people in need, on the very same day.

GemRishi

In 2020, Rishi Verma started a YouTube channel to educate people about gems & Jewellery; and with a mission of donating all his YouTube earnings for underprivileged kids' education.
As the channel grew, many people reached out to him with their stories of being cheated while buying gemstones. To address the problem, Rishi came up with a solution and launched GemRishi.
GemRishi is India's first marketplace for GemStones where certified and selected vendors can display their collection and sell authentic, certified, and honestly-priced gemstones to consumers.
All the profits generated from GemRishi go for the education of underprivileged children.

Mandala : Good Vibes

Being a certified Gemologist, Rishi has always been fascinated by the impact of energised crystals on the human body. After realising that conscious living is the new age lifestyle, Rishi, along with a team of qualified gemologists worked on the concept of Mandala.
Mandala is one of its kind brand that uses hand-picked crystals, chosen for their vibrational frequencies & real-life effects.
The crystals are then designed in modern yet rooted wearables to serve a specific purpose in peoples' lives.
Mandala is the only brand that guarantees real life effects through its energised crystal accessories with a 30-day no questions asked refund policy.
