The Ladies Wing of Hindusthan Club successfully hosted the 10th edition of Utsav, its premier Pre-Rakhi Fashion & Lifestyle Exhibition, which brought together top designers, lifestyle brands, entrepreneurs, and discriminating consumers under one roof, continuing its tradition of supporting women-led enterprise and creative talent.

In addition to showcasing the increasing contribution of female entrepreneurs to the city’s changing lifestyle ecosystem, the exhibition developed into a dynamic platform that combined fashion, business, and festive retail.

The event was graced by Mrs. Madhu Neotia, Advisor to Ambuja Neotia Group’s Hospitality & Healthcare Ventures; digital creator Alankrita Soni; Mrs. Nilima Goenka, Chairperson, Ladies Wing; Mrs. Sabita Agarwal, Co-Chairperson, Ladies Wing; Mr. Sanjay Goenka, President, Hindusthan Club, and Hony. Secretary, Mr. Kamal Ghelani.

The exhibition, which featured an exclusive selection of clothing, jewelry, accessories, home décor, gifting ideas, and festive collections ahead of Raksha Bandhan, provided a beneficial business opportunity for local companies, women-led businesses, and up-and-coming designers to engage with customers directly.

“Fashion today is not merely about style; it is a powerful expression of entrepreneurship, creativity, and economic empowerment. In addition to celebrating India’s rich cultural and artisanal legacy, platforms like Utsav are crucial in supporting women-led businesses, fostering innovation, and providing entrepreneurs with significant growth opportunities,” said Mrs. Madhu Neotia, Advisor to Ambuja Neotia Group’s Hospitality & Healthcare Ventures.

Mrs. Neotia also said that Rakhi is among one of the most popular festivals and getting such amazing gifts and Rakhis under one roof is very helpful for one and all.

Mrs. Nilima Goenka, Chairperson, Ladies Wing, Hindusthan Club, said, “The Ladies Wing’s ongoing dedication to developing a significant platform where creativity and commerce collide was evident as Utsav concluded its tenth edition. Our goal has always been to give visitors a carefully planned holiday shopping experience while empowering entrepreneurs, particularly women, by giving them visibility, networking opportunities, and direct market access”.

With a ten-year history, Utsav has developed into one of Kolkata’s most well-known pre-festive lifestyle shows, reiterating Hindusthan Club’s dedication to promoting entrepreneurship, assisting regional companies, and honoring the city’s vibrant fashion and lifestyle scene.
