More about Dipali Mathur
Private banker turned entrepreneur, Dipali Mathur Dayal is the Founder and CEO of the game-changer brand, Super Smelly. Super Smelly is India’s first and only brand of personal care products for Generation Z, that are zero-toxin, made with natural ingredients, gentle yet effective, and dermatologically tested for safety. In her current capacity, Dipali is the wind behind product vision, investor management, brand management, strategy, and direction for the company. For this, she has been recognised as BusinessWorld’s choice for ‘40 Under 40’.
Dipali launched Super Smelly with her partner, Milan Sharma in 2018. Since then, the brand has taken huge strides. Besides an ever expanding product range, Super Smelly has bagged several awards, including one of the Top 10 Retail Start Ups of 2020-21 by Silicon India, Product of the Year and Organic Beauty Awards in Australia.
Super Smelly is close to Dipali’s heart because she conceived the idea, as a mother to a growing daughter. The glaring lack of options for natural, toxin-free and safe personal care products in the country, for the age group between the two bookends (babies and adults), galvanised her to carefully architect a brand, exclusively for teens, tweens and young adults.
Considering that Gen Z constitutes 40% of India's population at present, Dipali envisions Super Smelly to establish itself as the market leader in personal care products for young skin and hair care.
Apart from her entrepreneurial commitments, Dipali loves to spend time with her family, read, travel, and is also a fitness enthusiast.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
