Core Pillars
Who We Are
Founded in 2022 and part of the Mavilach Group, Be Debonair Foundation runs four respected media publications, recognises excellence through its awards programmes, and drives social impact through community initiatives across India. We are not a typical foundation. We are a media organisation with a conscience, and everything we do reflects that.
What We Do
Three pillars. One purpose.
Media and Publications
We run four well-established media brands, each with its own voice, audience, and purpose. Together they represent some of the most distinctive publishing in India.
Awards and Recognition
We celebrate the people and organisations doing genuinely outstanding work. Our awards are grounded in editorial credibility and assessed with rigour and care.
Social Impact and CSR
Organisations with media reach have a responsibility to give back. We work on education, media literacy, cultural preservation, and community empowerment.
Our Publications
Four brands. Four distinct voices.
One shared commitment to quality, credibility, and stories that actually matter.
