Comet raised 100 crore from investors, not to expand its digital presence but to invest in opening physical retail stores.
And this is not a one-off scenario. New Indian brands and startups may begin as D2C online only brands. But most of them expand offline as soon as it’s feasible.

Indian brands rather use this data gathered from online ads to understand consumer psychology, customer demography and shopping pattern to accelerate offline presence.
