From Industry Experience to Entrepreneurial Excellence

By Krishna Tiwar || 27-06-2026

In an era where sustainability is redefining the future of construction and interior design, Kranti Anand, CEO & Co-Founder of ARRCOAT Surface Textures Pvt. Ltd., has emerged as one of India’s most visionary entrepreneurs. By combining decades of industrial expertise with a passion for innovation and environmental responsibility, he has transformed ARRCOAT into a pioneering brand that is reshaping the decorative surface coating industry with 100% natural, chemical-free solutions.

Kranti Anand’s entrepreneurial journey is built on resilience, determination, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. Rather than relying on family resources, he chose to build his own career from the ground up, taking on various jobs early in life to gain practical experience. His professional journey took him through several renowned organizations, including SRF, LML, Yamaha, Modecore, Danube, Gentech, and Avante, where he acquired extensive expertise in manufacturing, product development, quality assurance, operations, and business management.

The Vision Behind ARRCOAT

While working in the decorative surface industry, Kranti Anand observed a critical challenge. Many products marketed as “lime-based finishes” actually contained cement, synthetic chemicals, and volatile compounds that were harmful to both people and the environment. This realization inspired him to create a healthier, more sustainable alternative.

His entrepreneurial journey began with Koncept Creations in 2014, where he explored innovative decorative surface technologies. Later, he joined hands with Md. Iqbal, an innovator who had spent years developing authentic natural lime-based formulations. Together, they established ARRCOAT, united by a shared vision of reviving traditional lime craftsmanship while integrating modern technology and sustainable manufacturing practices.
