Redefining the wellness business

A spa in India is viewed as high-end indulgence, but three friends from Pune look to change that perception.

Sunil Rao, a Commerce Graduate from Sydenham College of Commerce and Economics, Mumbai (2002) and a 2004 SPJIMR PGDM (Marketing) alumnus along with his friends Anurag Kedia and Saurabh Garg from IIM-A started CMYK Health Boutique. The enterprise plans to set up theworld's largest chain of economical day spas with 300 spas across India by 2012. While working with HLL Bangkok in 2005,Sunil observed that spas there were affordable and hence, successful. With him as Director, CMYK has been able to dish out a five-star spa experience to their guests at affordable prices. CMYK, funded by Chennai based Fulcrum group, runs three spas in Pune under the Four Fountains Spa (TFFS) brand.
