Founder Story
About the Founder
Tanishq Nahar
Tanishq is the Co-founder of NIVAYA & Partner at Nahar Silvers.
Tanishq belongs to Nahar family of Masuda, Rajasthan, whose business roots trace back to his grandfather, Hastimal Ji Nahar. What began as a small kirana and agro store in the 1950s grew into ventures across textiles, jewellery, mortgage finance, and mining — a legacy that continues today through Nahar Silvers LLP and its global vision, NIVAYA.
Involved in the family business since age 16, Tanishq learned every aspect of jewellery and finance from retail operations to trust-based mortgage services that served over 300+ villages. This early experience shaped his foundation of integrity, ethics, and lasting customer relationships.
- BBA (Finance & International Business) – 2017 to 2020 at Christ University, Bengaluru
- MSc in International Business from IÉSEG School of Management, Paris – 2021 to 2023
During his studies in Paris, Tanishq gained valuable international exposure, connecting with global entrepreneurs and developing a vision to elevate Indian silver craftsmanship into a world class luxury lifestyle brand.
He has successfully completed Project Naga, a bespoke 925 silver wine bucket for RoWin Atelier, Paris Exhibited at Design ID, Mumbai.
The Visionary
At just 24 years old, Tanishq represents the third generation of the Nahar family business. His passion lies in expanding Indian silver craftsmanship to global markets while staying rooted in family values. Through NIVAYA, he aims to make silver the metal of modern luxury, beyond traditional gold.
NIVAYA is not just a brand; it is a dream built on my grandfather’s principles of honesty, ethics, and lifelong customer relationships. From our family’s kirana store in Masuda to a global luxury brand, we have always believed in one thing – building trust over generations.
With all the blessings that my grandfather gives me every day, this vision is turning into a reality. For me, silver is more than a metal — it is heritage, artistry, and a bridge between tradition and modern luxury. With NIVAYA, I want to carry forward my family’s legacy while creating a global platform that celebrates silver as the true luxury of the future.
