WHO WE ARE

Under the visionary leadership of Nalli Chinnasami Chetty, our family-run brand earned the trust of customers, becoming synonymous with pure silks and traditional sarees in households. After three decades, the baton was passed to grandson Nalli Kuppusami Chetty, honoured with the Padma Shri in 2003, India's fourth highest Civilian Honour, for his remarkable contributions to Trade & Industry. 

OUR HERITAGE

In 1928, the journey of Nalli began in Chennai's vibrant locale of Thyagaraja Nagar. Nalli Chinnasami Chetty envisioned it as the ultimate saree destination, a symbol of purity. Amidst the World War II closures, this landmark store stood unwavering, dedicated to meeting customers' needs. The unparalleled commitment to customer-centricity forged Nalli's iconic status in silk sarees.From celebrities such as former President Dr Rajendra Prasad, and the queen of carnatic music M.S. Subbulakshmi (for whom Nalli presented a saree woven in a unique shade of blue, later labelled as the 'MS Blue'), to the common people, Nalli has remained a long-time favourite.

Over the years, Nalli has opened multiple stores in major cities; including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kochi, Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Hyderabad and many more and has presence across US, Singapore & Canada too.

CUSTOMER CENTRICITY

Breaking away from tradition, Nalli Kuppusami made a bold decision in the 1950s: the store would refrain from discount selling, a concept unheard of at the time. This decision marked a significant departure from the norm and positioned Nalli as a pioneering force in the textile industry, spearheading change across the sector. In today's marketplace, where sales and promotions entice consumers, Nalli continues to uphold its 'Every Day Value Price' approach. This strategy prioritises operational excellence and efficient cost structures, enabling the provision of high-quality products to consumers at value-driven prices. Nalli remains steadfast in its commitment to delivering unrivalled quality at competitive prices, earning an ever-growing base of loyal customers.
