In his latest personal investment, Ratan Tata, chairman emeritus of the Tata Group, has invested in Kaaryah, a technology enabled women's wear portal, its founder Nidhi Agarwal said on Wednesday.

 

 

 "Yes, he (Tata) has invested in brand Kaaryah," said Agarwal, confirming Tata's latest venture capital move.

 

 "We are very honoured to have him invest in his personal capacity. His investment is a great endorsement to our vision," she added.

 

 However, Agarwal, who is also CEO of Kaaryah, did not reveal any financial details of Tata's newest investment.

 The fashion portal launched in September 2013 focuses on offering Indian women the perfect fit for western formal wear.
