Tira is an Indian beauty and personal care retail brand owned by Reliance Retail. Headquartered in Mumbai, the brand was established in April 2023 and operates through physical stores and an e-commerce website.[1]
History
In April 2023, Reliance Retail launched Tira with an online platform and a physical store at Jio World Drive in Mumbai.[2] The brand is managed by Reliance Retail under the leadership of Isha Ambani.[3]
In 2024, the platform began retailing brands including 82°E, co-founded by Deepika Padukone, and SKIN1004.[4][5] In October 2024, the skincare brand 9Skin, co-founded by Nayanthara, was added to its digital and physical channels.[6] In 2025, Tira added the South Korean brand TIRTIR and launched its first private-label line of colour cosmetics.[7][8] As of 2026, the company's portfolio includes international brands such as NARS Cosmetics, Fenty Beauty, and Milktouch.[9][10]
Operations
Tira's product categories include makeup, skincare, haircare, and fragrances.[1] The company maintains retail locations in Indian cities including Mumbai, New Delhi, Bangalore, Pune, Hyderabad, and Chennai.[11][12]
Partnerships and acquisitions
In 2023, the company partnered with Amorepacific Corporation for the distribution of its brands in India.[13] In November 2023, Reliance Retail acquired the Indian operations of Sephora from Arvind Fashions for approximately ₹99 crore, assuming control of 26 stores.[14] Reliance also acquired the Indian rights for the Italian brand Kiko Milano from DLF Brands.[15]
In January 2026, the company partnered with South Korean cosmetics brand Hince to introduce the brand in the Indian market.[16]
In February 2026, Tira introduced South Korean dermo-cosmetic brand Medicube in India through its retail and online platforms.[17]
In May 2026, Tira introduced UK-based brand FACEGYM in India through a shop-in-shop outlet at its Kemp’s Corner store in Mumbai. The launch followed a minority investment in FACEGYM by Reliance Retail Ventures in 2025.[18]
