With over two decades of experience, he has transitioned from high-level corporate leadership to becoming a multi-faceted thought leader, advisor, and educator. His career is defined by a consistent ability to deliver sustainable revenue growth across luxury, apparel manufacturing, and brand launch initiatives.

Strategic Leadership & Brand Innovation

Before establishing his own ventures, Mr. Gupta held pivotal leadership roles with some of the world’s most prestigious
brands. As the Country Head for Versace and Corneliani, he spearheaded their entry into the Indian market. His
technical expertise was equally transformative in manufacturing; he established the modern production systems for
Lacoste in India and managed the complex technology transfer for a Groupo Marzotto project.
His career is marked by a “results-first” mindset, leading to several industry milestones, including:
‱ Conducting India’s first anthropometric study for men’s suit sizing.
‱ Conceptualizing innovative private labels like ‘Bench & Bar’ and ‘SU Misura’.
‱ Introducing Versace mobile phones and luxury home concepts to the Indian consumer.

Mr. Gupta founded Luxury Connect LLP and the Luxury
Connect Business School (LCBS)—India’s first and only
institution dedicated to the business of luxury. Through
LCBS, he bridges the gap between global standards
and local talent, backed by a world-class faculty of
industry veterans.
