CosIQ was founded in 2021 as a skincare brand built around ingredient-led products and simplified routines. Kanika Talwar and Angad Talwar presented the company as an early direct-to-consumer business, while current corporate profiles also associate Vidhu Jain with the enterprise.
The founders entered Shark Tank India Season 1 asking for ₹50 lakh for 7% equity. Vineeta Singh and Anupam Mittal jointly agreed to invest ₹50 lakh for 25%. The final televised terms therefore placed a lower valuation on the young company than the founders’ opening proposal.
After the programme, CosIQ continued to sell through its own online store. The current catalogue includes sunscreens, serums, cleansers and moisturisers, maintaining the company’s original focus on skincare rather than shifting categories.
The Company Check’s business profile reports FY2024 sales of ₹8 crore. Its funding profile also records approximately $132,960 raised across three rounds. These figures indicate that the company progressed beyond its initial television-stage scale, although the funding total is compiled from disclosed transactions and may not capture undisclosed capital.
Public financial information available to non-subscribers does not provide a complete audited profit-and-loss history or a later FY2025 result. The ₹8 crore figure should therefore be read as the latest reported sales benchmark located for this review, not as a claim about current annual revenue in August 2026.
The clearest before-and-now comparison is CosIQ’s movement from a newly launched brand seeking its first nationally visible investment to an operating skincare company with ₹8 crore in reported FY2024 sales. As of August 25, 2026, its online store remains active and the company continues to market its original product category following the ₹50 lakh Shark Tank investment.
