The accelerator believes that with over 760+ million online users in the country, there has never been a better time to power India's D2C economy.The D2C startups that are onboarding the cohort program will be guided to refine their products for market fitness and create maximum economic and social impact in India and the world.The finalists are shortlisted from over 500 applications coming from different Tier-I, Tier-II, and Tier-III cities and following a rigorous screening process.The 10-week program will open doors for the shortlisted startups to get domain-specific insights from industry thought leaders and practitioners, accelerating the journey to product-market fit and beyond.The founding members of Marwari Catalysts strongly believe that India is on the right track to become the world's largest startup hub in the world and with Indian unicorns being announced almost every week, the ongoing momentum in the Indian startup ecosystem is very huge.And if we talk about our D2C ecosystem, the sector registered a massive growth due to factors like increasing first-time internet users and evolving consumers' expectations.

We're delighted to welcome the selected startups onboard with us and we will thereby build on our learnings to ensure that we continue on our pioneering path, wherein we discover early-stage start-ups at regular intervals, guide the founders with our masterclass, showcase the innovative start-ups to the investors and enable them to convert their ideas into bigger businesses."The startups that are selected from a highly competitive pool of applications are :1.
