Founding[edit | edit source]
IMbesharam was founded in 2013 by entrepreneurs Salim Rajan and Raj Armani in response to the lack of comprehensive online resources catering to adult needs in India.[4]
Business model[edit | edit source]
According to a 2020 article by Mint, three of the brand's five best-selling products were female vibrators.[5] Among the company's customers, 54% were women and 46% were men. According to a 2022 estimate, the company was projected to exceed ₹400 million in sales by 2023.[6]
In 2022, IMBesharam provided seed funding to the Sangya Project, an Indian sex-tech startup, to manufacture inexpensive sexual wellness products and sex toys in India.[6]

IMbesharam has partnered with Lovense.[7] Additionally, IMbesharam has partnered withadult actress Sunny Leone to launch exclusive product lines and promotional campaigns.[8]
