Slikk plans to expand across Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities over the next five years, bringing 60-minute fashion delivery to a wider audience. It also aims to diversify into seven-plus lifestyle categories while leveraging advanced technology for seamless shopping, fulfillment, and returns. With its Try & Buy model, instant refunds, and rapid delivery, Slikk is reshaping fashion e-commerce. This funding round marks a key milestone in solidifying its leadership in India’s fast-fashion market.

We’re excited to partner with Lightspeed and our investors, who believe in our vision of making last-minute fashion a seamless, delightful experience.”

Beyond just speed, the company offers a seamless, full-stack shopping experience with curated selections, instant deliveries, and hassle-free returns.

With a robust portfolio of 80+ brands, including Snitch, The Souled Store, Freakins , Uptownie , Off Duty, Bonkers, and Bewakoof, Slikk Club is establishing itself as the ultimate destination for last-minute fashion needs.

Commenting on the investment, Rahul Taneja, Partner, Lightspeed said, “How we shop is changing everyday and so are our expectations from shopping destinations.
