New Delhi: While the world was battling against the Covid 19 pandemic since the month of April this year, four corporate executives were tirelessly working on launching their own company into Decorative & Commercial Lighting segment in India.
Deepawali in India is known to be the “festival of lights”. Subsequently, it was an apt period to launch Mimamsaa – India’s first-of-its-kind premium Decorative Lighting brand by Decorative Innovation Technologies India Pvt Ltd (DITIPL).

Finally, it is going to be a technology-backed enterprise with state-of-the-art ERP and CRM solutions in place in order to meet the distributor & end customers’ requirements.
