About Us
Capturing Banarasi Saree Heritage Since the 1970s
Where tradition lives, breathes, and is reimagined for today.
Ilika Banaras is rooted in legacy.
Our story began in Banaras in the 1970s, when our family became part of the city’s deeply respected saree trade. What has carried forward through generations is not just business, but an understanding — of fabric, finish, quality, and trust.Over the decades, we have built deep, personal relationships with the weavers of Banaras. These bonds have been nurtured through years of shared respect and craftsmanship.
Founded by Stuti Gupta alongside her mother Rupali Gupta, Ilika Banaras is a thoughtful extension of this legacy — created to bring the richness of Banarasi textiles closer to you, in a way that feels personal, curated, and timeless.
Every saree at Ilika Banaras carries not just intricate weaving or detailed embroidery, but the hands and heritage behind it. From loom to drape, each piece reflects patience, skill, and the quiet dedication of the artisans who bring it to life.
Today, as the third generation carries this legacy forward, our commitment remains the same — to honour our weavers, preserve authentic craftsmanship, and present Banarasi sarees in a way that feels timeless yet relevant for the modern woman.
Ilika Banaras is not just a brand. It is a continuation of a story woven in Banaras — with pride, integrity, and heart.
