At its recent public listing, Lenskart CEO Peyush Bansal highlighted that the company’s IPO journey was driven by a focus on vision, impact, and long-term growth, rather than pursuing a high valuation. Bansal emphasised that Lenskart’s mission has always been to provide accessible vision solutions to millions, and the public listing represents a milestone in that journey.

Speaking on the occasion, Bansal noted that while market valuation often dominates headlines, the company prioritises sustainable growth, customer experience, and innovation in eyewear technology. The IPO, according to him, is a step towards enabling Lenskart to expand its reach, enhance product offerings, and invest in technology-driven solutions for eyewear and vision care.

The public listing also provides an opportunity for investors to participate in Lenskart’s growth story, which has been characterised by a blend of offline and online retail expansion, technological innovation, and a focus on customer-centric services. Bansal reiterated that these strategic goals matter more than short-term market valuations.

Analysts observing the IPO noted that Lenskart’s approach signals a maturing mindset among Indian startups, where sustainable business impact is prioritised over headline-grabbing valuations. By putting vision and service at the centre, Lenskart aims to continue its trajectory as a leading eyewear platform in India and beyond.

The CEO’s remarks underline the broader philosophy of the company — growth that benefits customers, employees, and stakeholders alike. Bansal concluded by expressing optimism about Lenskart’s future and reaffirming that the IPO is a milestone in a long-term journey, not an end goal focused on valuation alone.
