In a few of weeks, Mukesh Ambani's Reliance would have built its first in-house luxury fashion and leisure shop, thus the transaction for Naturals would be right on schedule.


According to a report that was published in the newspaper Economic Times on Friday, a subsidiary of the Indian oil-to-chemicals conglomerate known as Reliance Industries known as Reliance Retail intends to enter the salon business and is in the final stages of completing the purchase of an approximately 49% stake in Naturals Salon & Spa.

The information comes from that news.

 

The Chief Executive Officer of Naturals, CK Kumaravel, was interviewed for the news piece, and he was reported as stating that "the conversations are at a fledgling stage." In spite of this, it was noted in the report that "the conversations are in the preliminary stages." The research's conclusions were ascribed to sources that comprised of executives who were aware of the development. These executives were interviewed for the report.

 

ET claimed that the present proprietors of Groom India Salons & Spa, which runs over 700 Naturals salons throughout the nation, could continue operating its operations, and the money from Reliance would assist increase its network. Groom India Salons & Spa is a chain of salons and spas in India. It was also said in the article that the cash will assist in expanding the company's network. In addition, the story said that the funding from Reliance would help in expanding the network in some way.

 

The potential adverse effects of the transaction on the economy were never discussed at any point throughout the course of the exchange. Reuters did not immediately get a response from either Naturals or Reliance in response to the news organization's requests for comments from both firms. Naturals and Reliance both had the opportunity to comment on the situation. Both Naturals and Reliance were given the chance to make a statement on the matter.

 

According to the information that is presented on the website of the company, Naturals, which was founded in the early 2000s and has its headquarters in Chennai, intends to run 3,000 salons by the year 2025. This information is provided based on the information that is provided on the website of the company.

After just a few short weeks had passed since the grand inauguration of Reliance's first in-house luxury fashion and lifestyle shop, the firm decided to enter into a partnership with Naturals. The retail establishment had literally just opened its doors. A line of natural cosmetics and skin care items sold under the brand name Naturals. Recent reports from the media have suggested that Reliance is making headway in the talks for the India rights to the Sephora brand. LVMH is the owner of the retail beauty chain Sephora, and recent reports from the media have indicated that Reliance is making progress in these discussions.

 

Beauty salons were among the categories of companies that were affected the most severely during the most severe phase of the COVID-19 outbreak. In May of 2020, Kumaravel, the Chief Executive Officer of Naturals, went to extreme measures in order to rescue the chain by begging the government for aid in the form of financial support. He did this in the hopes that the chain may be saved.

 

In spite of this, there has been a rise in the number of individuals attending to social events and workplaces, which has helped to the revival of the salon sector. [Cause and effect] [The chain of causation]
