Artociti, a mass-premium luxury 3D wall art and manufacturing brand, has raised ₹1 crore for a 7.5% equity stake at a valuation of ₹13.33 crore on Shark Tank India Season 5 from Namita Thapar and Vineeta Singh.
The funds raised will be used to build a new manufacturing facility in Bokaro, Jharkhand, to increase production capacity and ensure stricter quality control and quicker deliveries.
Founded in 2021 by Indrajeet Kumar and Swatiki Prakash, Artociti is a homegrown mass-premium 3D wall art brand that engineers large-format, high-relief décor pieces with depths of up to 12 inches.
Artociti bridges traditional craftsmanship with industrial scalability- bringing fully made-in-India, immersive spatial art to homeowners and commercial projects nationwide.
Artociti’s experience-based retail format is currently led by its 3,000 sq. ft. Artociti Experience Centre in Kirti Nagar, Delhi. The company plans to open new centres in Pune, Bengaluru, and Chennai, while also exploring international export opportunities in the medium term.
The company operates a vertically integrated manufacturing facility employing over 80 people.
Indrajeet Kumar, Founder and CEO of Artociti, said, “While managing exhibitions in the Middle East, I recognised a massive gap in the Indian market for premium, high-quality relief 3D wall décor. We built Artociti during the pandemic with a vision to create a national design-manufacturing brand right from Tier-2 India. This investment validates our belief that ‘Made in Bokaro’ can mean world-class quality at an industrial scale. We are deeply grateful for the confidence our investors have shown in our long-term vision.”
Swatiki Prakash, Co-founder and Head of Technology and Finance, said, “Building our foundation in India and scaling operations from scratch wasn’t just about making art; it was about engineering scalable manufacturing. By keeping production entirely in-house, we maintain precision and quality in our designs while creating meaningful employment opportunities in Jharkhand.”
