Damani got into retailing in 2002 with one store in suburban Mumbai and has grown into a chain selling everything from grocery to apparel to footwear.

Damani also holds stakes in a range of companies, such as tobacco firm VST industries. In June 2024, he and his younger brother sold their holding in India Cements to billionaire Kumar Birla.
