Indulge '26 — Unwrap your potential

Who we are

Two decades of turning cravings into a category

Prayagh Consumer Care is one of India's top confectionery companies, founded in 2000. Behind our two flagship brands Cintu and Lavian sits a portfolio that spans chocolates, candies, éclairs, cream cakes, wafers and jellies, found on shelves across the country and loved by millions. We are an FMCG company that has grown by making sharp decisions, building strong teams and understanding the Indian consumer deeply.

The competition

A case competition for people who think like we do

INDULGE is Prayagh Consumer Care's National Case Competition, built exclusively for first-year MBA students who want to go beyond the classroom and take on something real. It's our way of finding the next generation of people who make sharp calls under real constraints — not just good ones on a slide.

Two tracks, one real problem each

02

HR

Work through a real people-and-organisation challenge — the kind that shapes how a company scales and retains talent.

Open to first-year MBA/PGDM students only. Participants may be from any specialisation.
