MensXP Eyes Separation from Mensa Brands After Two Years

  • India Lifestyle Network (ILN) and Mensa are in talks with VC and PE firms to buy out Mensa's stake in ILN.
  • ILN wants to operate independently, believing Mensa's growth priorities don't align with its own.
  • Mensa acquired ILN in 2022 for about $100 million, but ILN now seeks new investors.
  • ILN founder Angad Bhatia is leading the discussions to secure the buyout.
  • MensXP plans to restart its influencer-commerce business and offer educational courses as an independent entity.
