Dame Health launches as India’s first reproductive wellness brand
Mumbai: Dame Health launches as India’s first reproductive health and wellness brand, addressing gynecological issues and focusing on women’s reproductive wellness. The brand began with prenatal care and now supports women through all stages of their reproductive journey, from menstruation to menopause, with carefully formulated nutraceuticals. Additionally, Dame Health is introducing nutritional supplements to support male fertility.
Founded by Sahil Agarwal and his father, Dr Rajeev Agarwal, Dame Health was inspired by the family’s strong medical background and a desire to fill critical gaps in women’s healthcare. The brand’s products are USFDA-certified, soy-free, gluten-free, and formulated with clinically proven ingredients. They are 100 per cent vegetarian and designed to have no side effects, reflecting the experience and trust of a doctor-founded brand with over 25 years of expertise.
Dame Health co-founder Sahil Agarwal stated, “We noticed that while many brands in India focus on hair and skincare, there was no trusted brand addressing issues like painful periods, PCOS, fertility struggles, or menopause symptoms. This gap inspired the creation of Dame Health.”
Dame Health co-founder Dr Rajeev Agarwal added, “There is a lack of high-quality health and wellness brands that help women understand and address their gynecological health issues. We aim to be that trusted companion for them.”
Dame Health’s best-selling products include Optimen, Protein Powder, Melatonin, Q-plus, Resver, Optimag Plus, Optimen Max, Opti Natal, Opti Natal DHA, and more. The brand caters to women of all ages, from adolescence to menopause, offering solutions for menstruation, fertility, pregnancy, menopause, and overall wellness. Additionally, men seeking fertility support are also part of their customer base.
Dame Health products are available at https://damehealth.com/ and other major e-commerce platforms.

HSBC names Gautam Anand to head global India private banking unit
The bank taps a 25-year veteran to run its franchise as the war for wealthy NRI clients heats up
MUMBAI: HSBC has handed Gautam Anand the keys to its global India private banking business, betting that a seasoned operator can squeeze more out of one of the world’s most lucrative pools of offshore wealth.
Anand, who joined HSBC Private Bank in December 2023 as global co-ordinator for Global India, the Middle East, North Africa and Europe, steps up to lead the franchise outright. He will run the operation across India and its key international outposts in Dubai, Hong Kong, Singapore and the United Kingdom, putting him squarely in the middle of the corridors through which Indian money flows abroad.
The appointment is a signal of intent. HSBC only launched its global private banking business in India in 2023, pitching hard at high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth clients as part of a broader assault on Asian wealth management. The bank now wants Anand to turn that beachhead into a fortress.
He comes well-armed. Before HSBC, Anand clocked time at UBS, Credit Suisse, ANZ and ABN Amro, a CV that reads like a roll-call of the banks that have long competed to manage the fortunes of India’s affluent diaspora.
With Indian wealth exploding at home and spreading fast across global financial centres, the race to capture it is only getting fiercer. HSBC is backing Anand to make sure it does not finish second.
