🌟 The Founder and Brand Story
Noise was co‑founded by Amit Khatri in 2014 as a bootstrapped venture. What started as a small experiment in consumer electronics has now become India’s first ₹1000 crore D2C brand, recognized as the #1 smartwatch brand in India, #3 in Asia, and #9 globally.
The brand’s philosophy is simple: deliver premium technology at accessible prices. While Noise is best known for its smartwatches, its audio products—earbuds, headphones, and wireless devices—have carved a niche by offering better sound quality than most competitors in the same segment.
