Wahter was founded in December 2023 with a mission to provide clean and affordable drinking water while offering an advertising platform for brands. By leveraging the power of advertising, Wahter ensures that consumers can access bottled water at just Rs 1 or Rs 2. The company's unique approach involves integrating brand advertisements onto water bottle labels, creating a win-win scenario where advertising investments subsidize the cost of water.
