Humpy A2, the startup redefining dairy with pure A2 milk from indigenous Indian cows, gained national attention after its Shark Tank India appearance. Here’s how the brand is changing the milk game—one glass at a time!
Milk has always been part of India’s heart and soul—but in today’s world of ultra-processed dairy, have we forgotten what real milk tastes like?
This Bengaluru-based startup is on a mission to bring back the good ol’ days with pure, fresh A2 milk sourced directly from native Indian cows—and people are loving it!
After a noteworthy pitch on Shark Tank India Season 3, Humpy A2 isn’t just delivering milk—it’s delivering a movement.
What Is Humpy A2 All About?
Founded by Karthik Velu, Karan Mutha, and Adithya Kulkarni, Humpy A2 was born out of a desire to solve a very modern problem: food purity. As consumers started becoming more health-conscious, many realized that the milk they were drinking was far from natural—filled with preservatives, hormones, and processed through aggressive techniques.
That’s where Humpy A2 comes in.
They deliver unprocessed, preservative-free A2 milk from desi breeds like Gir and Sahiwal, which naturally produce A2 beta-casein protein—easier to digest and packed with health benefits.
If you’re wondering what all the hype is about, here’s what separates Humpy A2 from the rest of the herd:
- 100% Desi Cows: No hybrid or crossbred animals—just pure native Indian breeds.
- No Hormones or Preservatives: Straight from the cow, as nature intended.
- Lab Tested for Purity: Every batch goes through rigorous quality checks.
- Rich in A2 Beta-Casein Protein: Easier on the gut and better for lactose-sensitive folks.
Oh, and did we mention? Think natural feed, clean environments, and ethical milking practices.
Shark Tank India Appearance: Moving the Sharks
Their pitch focused on:
- Educating the sharks on the difference between A1 and A2 milk
- Demonstrating strong customer retention and subscription models
- Highlighting their mission to preserve native cow breeds

The startup was seeking funds to expand operations, improve logistics, and boost digital marketing. After a round of back-and-forth, Humpy A2 struck a deal with Aman Gupta and Vineeta Singh for a strategic investment and mentorship package.
