Backed by DSG Consumer Partners, V3 Ventures and L’Oréal’s BOLD venture fund, this achievement underscores the strength of its founder, Malini Adapureddy, and her commitment to building a brand rooted in efficacy and customer trust.  Adding a deeply personal touch to this milestone, her husband, Prateek Jain—Principal at the Fundamentum Partnership—penned a heartfelt tribute reflecting on Malini’s remarkable journey. Through his LinkedIn post, he offered a rare glimpse into the challenges she overcame, juggling the birth of their daughter, Devaki, with the immense pressures of steering a near-empty startup towards profitability and growth. A Startup Born Amid Life’s Biggest Challenges “The ecosystem almost convinced her that building a consumer business today is impossible without funding,” shares Jain. Despite the overwhelming odds, she chose to fight. Barely a week postpartum, she was back to work, determined to prove her philosophy of creating ‘highly effective yet gentle’ skincare products for everyday use. What set Adapureddy apart was her engineering mindset, which she leveraged to prioritise effectively and build a sustainable business. “She decided to declutter and focus on the top three SKUs that were getting great customer feedback,” says Jain. Operating on first principles, Adapureddy streamlined operations, improved cash flow and turned her lean resources into an advantage.   In a move reminiscent of Dollar Shave Club’s viral marketing, the typically media-shy entrepreneur starred in a video just two months postpartum, showcasing her commitment to the brand and its mission. By December 2024, before any new funds had even arrived, Deconstruct had grown 10 times and achieved profitability for the entirety of FY25, operating on a negative working capital cycle.   Fast forward to January 2025, Deconstruct has raised Rs 65 crore in funding from DSG Consumer Partners, V3 Ventures and BOLD, the venture fund of L’Oréal. This infusion of capital validates Adapureddy’s vision and marks a significant milestone for the company. The funds will be used to scale operations, expand product lines and further solidify its position in the direct-to-consumer (D2C) skincare market.   Jain lauds the team’s role in this turnaround. “The stellar team at Deconstruct, almost none of whom come from FMCG or BPC backgrounds, stood by Malini like a rock,” he says. Their high ownership and commitment to first principles were instrumental in executing Malini’s vision.   At the heart of Deconstruct’s story is its unwavering focus on customer satisfaction. “It takes a village to raise a child, and in this case, it’s both Deconstruct and Devaki that this village has helped raise,” says Jain. The brand’s ethos of prioritising ‘Customer Love over Investor Love’ has not only earned it a loyal consumer base but also caught the attention of marquee investors.   Her story is as much a testament to her grit as it is a masterclass in entrepreneurial resilience. “Watching you execute over the last 16 months—at the peak of pregnancy, through postpartum, and after—will be the story I keep telling our daughter,” he writes. “You are a superwoman—I am your biggest fanboy!”   As Deconstruct steps into its next phase of growth with its innovative product strategy, dedicated team and fresh funding, the brand is poised to redefine D2C skincare in India.

All Rights Reserved As Malini works to expand Renesas India’s workforce her own experience as a women leader has naturally led her to explore avenues for hiring more women engineers to create a workplace that enables diverse ideas and drives growth Malini and her team supported Renesas’ CEO who joined a roundtable with other global semiconductor leaders and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the inaugural SEMICON India conference in New Delhi Renesas presented almost 50 different solutions in our booth at electronica India and SEMICON India Malini herself participated in a panel discussion on automotive components at the event We spoke with Malini about India’s growth prospects and how those are helping Renesas meet its goal to increase company revenue to $20 billion by 2030 Renesas: Why has India been such a focus for Renesas over the last few years What growth opportunities has the company identified our Hon'ble Prime Minister gave a kick-start to India’s vision of self-reliance (aka Athmanirbhar Bharath) through economic policies and incentives that included a focus on electronics and semiconductors we had Indian products like Videocon and Onida But with the relaxation of import tariffs on foreign goods Western companies gained a stronger presence many Indian brands gradually lost their market share Thanks to this new ‘Make in India’ program promoting domestic manufacturing we're back to a point where India wants to build its own products and the government is fostering an ecosystem to make that happen Renesas: What makes India a strong candidate as a design and manufacturing hub Malini: India has a huge talent pool that is well-educated with a number of engineering colleges churning out new grads India is cost-competitive and as a geopolitically neutral country is easy to work with All these make India a desirable place for companies like ourselves to grow Renesas: What does the Renesas footprint in India look like today We have a sales and marketing office in Delhi and an office in Pune which has both engineering and sales Our newest offices are in Hyderabad and Noida We are a minority stakeholder in a joint venture with CG Power and packaging facility is being built in Sanand Renesas India is growing across all locations and we aspire to double the headcount we have today by 2025 Renesas: How will an increase in headcount help you achieve your business goals Malini: One approach to catering to the India market is to approach design from the standpoint of local demand two-wheelers dominate the sector due to their accessibility and affordability While much of the world develops technology for four-wheeled vehicles – and merely retrofits for the two-wheeler market – this represents a large underserved market with large local demand Given the increasing interest from startups and established companies to manufacture products in India one might question the implications for Renesas We have a broad portfolio of semiconductor chips that span automotive and industrial applications Renesas is able to cater all the way from luxury vehicle offerings to the mass market Renesas also has proof-of-concept teams that can design system-level solutions and collaborate with product companies to show them what they can do as they proceed through their product journey Our system-level focus aligns with the government’s push toward building electronics in India I think that combination will enable us to make products tailored for India – but also the global market – and help Renesas India reach our aspiration of contributing to over 10 percent of total Renesas revenue by 2030 India has been known more for software development than hardware engineering there were a huge number of software companies that came in for recruitment Software jobs were just easier to find in India a number of hardware companies have set up shop in India with India’s push to become self-reliant in electronics universities are offering more semiconductor and design courses which is yielding a contingent of fresh college grads with high-quality talent in addition to our software and digitalization team We have a systems team as well that helps us build products and we are growing our capabilities on that front as well Renesas: How is Renesas capitalizing on this evolving landscape to optimize recruitment Renesas India also has partnered with a number of universities to implement university programs and internship opportunities which help them prepare for real-world engineering jobs Renesas: The most recent Renesas Business & Sustainability report mentions that 30 percent of new hires in India last year were women Malini: We were very happy to see that 30 percent of the new hires last year in India were women 30 to 40 percent of engineering school graduates tend to be women women need a little extra confidence building to make changes to their work-life balance We are very supportive of having more women in Renesas we typically have a woman from one of our teams talk with each of them to share their experiences at Renesas The idea is to provide them with role models and show them that Renesas is a supportive place that welcomes and encourages women is a huge driving force on diversity initiatives and goes the extra mile to ensure the women at Renesas are supported in their career journeys We have also partnered with India’s largest career engagement platform for women which provides 'returnship' resources to women who have taken a break from their careers and want to re-enter the workforce We would like to see our diversity numbers grow in the coming years as we expand our sites across India does that take you back to your early days as an engineer What was the motivation for your career choice and how is Renesas helping further your ambitions but an injury caused me to re-focus on academics I had to choose between engineering and medicine Engineering was the obvious choice given my inclination toward math As I went through my courses in engineering I was always seeking out the big picture in the topics being taught This system and big-picture thinking helps me in my job at Renesas every day What I loved about Renesas when I accepted this job – and still love – is that it does not limit me or pigeonhole me into a specific area I’ve always been able to work across boundaries while the constant learning culture here continues to shape my growth as a person and solutions delivered straight to your inbox Browse Departments
