"Our refreshed identity celebrates HRI's legacy while reflecting our ambition to build a more vibrant, progressive and future-ready organisation, preserving the trust, values and brand equity we have nurtured over seven decades. From a single-brand, single-category business, we have evolved into a multi-brand, multi-category organisation. 'Where Beauty Evolves' marks the next chapter of this journey and reflects our ambition to strengthen our presence in the Beauty & Personal Care space. It embodies our commitment to continuous innovation, anticipating evolving consumer needs and creating solutions that empower individual expression through beauty. Our new identity reinforces this ambition, strengthening our market position, deepening connections with consumers and partners, and enabling us to play a more meaningful role in their beauty journeys."

The corporate repositioning was done in partnership with India's leading brand consultancy, chlorophyll, translating HRI's transformation into a distinctive identity system aligned with the company's long-term vision.

Through research, brand immersion, analytical thinking and an outside-in perspective, we identified a distinctive territory that could carry HRI into its next chapter. The result honours seven decades of equity while giving the brand a contemporary expression for the future. 'Where Beauty Evolves' captures HRI's ability to evolve with its consumers and shape what's next in beauty."
