Few navigate legacy with as much clarity and confidence as Avarna Jain. As Chair of the RR Circle, Jain brings a rare synthesis of intuition, intellect, and industry acumen to the evolving idea of luxury in India.
As vice chairperson of Saregama India, a company that holds nearly half the recorded music in the country, Jain has not only preserved a 130-year-old archive, but has also reimagined its place in a digital world. With Carvaan, a retro-inspired music player pre-loaded with India’s greatest melodies, she turned nostalgia into a mass-market innovation.
Her vision extends beyond music. At RPSG Lifestyle Media, she oversees Indian editions of Robb Report, Esquire, and The Hollywood Reporter as well as the homegrown title, Manifest. “Robb Report is the world’s leading authority on luxury and fine living. With India’s appetite for quality products on the rise, the title will play a major role in evolving taste and affecting consumption patterns,” she says, adding, “Robb Report India will empower our readers with unparalleled insights into the best the world has to offer.”
Recognised by Fortune, FICCI, YFLO, and the United Nations for her leadership, Jain now leads the BRICS Women’s Business Alliance, India Chapter. Through her work across music, cinema, and publishing, she continues to shape conversations around culture. In an age driven by the new, Jain’s focus remains on what truly lasts.
Introducing the first advisory board for Robb Report India, the RR Circle brings together leading voices across luxury to guide, curate, and define the future of experiences in India.
