About CAVA Athleisure
CAVA grew out of the Mittal sisters' own lockdown workouts and a frustration with activewear that didn't fit Indian bodies well. Ria and Shreya Mittal founded the Bengaluru brand in 2020, building performance-minded leggings, sports bras and layers, and leaning hard on community to drive fit and design. It has since scaled toward a nine-figure-rupee vision.
