In a detailed conversation with Adgully, Mukul Shah — co-founder of Guttify — explains how the brand is seeking to address a largely untapped dimension of Indian wellness: gut health. He observes that for years many Indians have treated digestive issues reactively — taking antacids, probiotics or home remedies — without identifying root-causes.
Guttify positions itself as India’s first full-stack “diagnosis-first” gut-health ecosystem: combining at-home testing, data-driven insights and personalised care.
Seizing a Large Opportunity
Shah cites estimates that the Indian gut-wellness market could reach US $18 billion, increasing lifestyle disorders.
>Therefore he underscores a specific gap: over 60 % of India’s population reportedly experiences some form of digestive discomfort.

The brand has secured funding as well: a recent seed-extension of US $ 360,000, bringing its total to over US $ 1 million.With a bold vision and a largely unaddressed need, Guttify is entering the wellness market at a pivotal time for India. Success will depend not just on product execution, but on how deeply the company can educate, scale and build consumer trust. For the growing numbers of Indians seeking more than symptomatic relief.
