About Phitku

Phitku is a Made-in-India personal care brand built on a simple idea: one of the oldest answers to body odour is also one of the most effective. Reaching back to alum, a mineral Indian households have relied on for generations, the brand has reengineered it into a modern range of clean, alcohol-free and skin-friendly formulations that neutralise odour at its source instead of masking it with synthetic fragrance.

Founded in early 2025 by Sumit Marda, Neha Marda and Rahul Dokania, Phitku has scaled rapidly in its first year, earning the trust of more than 6 lakh customers across the country. That momentum has made it one of India’s fastest-growing and profitable personal care brands, at a time when more consumers are actively seeking gentler, ingredient-led alternatives for their daily routines.
