Three Young Engineers. One Bold Vision: The Story Behind Barrister’s Choice

How Er. Kushal Bansal, Er. Mudit Bansal and Er. Swapan Goyal are combining engineering knowledge, textile education and creative thinking to build an Indian premium white-shirt brand.

In entrepreneurship, some ideas emerge from identifying a gap in the market. Others begin with looking at something familiar and asking how it could be done differently.

For Er. Kushal Bansal, Er. Mudit Bansal and Er. Swapan Goyal, that familiar product is the white shirt.

A staple of professional dressing, the white shirt is often defined by simplicity. Yet creating a well-made one involves several important decisions, from fabric selection and construction to collar design, stitching, finishing and fit. The founders of Barrister’s Choice saw an opportunity to approach this everyday essential with greater technical attention and a fresh creative perspective.

Based in Ludhiana, Punjab, Barrister’s Choice is a premium apparel brand under Celestia Corporation LLP. The venture brings together three young founders with complementary engineering backgrounds and a shared ambition to develop a distinctive Indian shirting brand.

The story is not simply about launching another clothing label. It is about applying technical learning to product development and turning an idea into an entrepreneurial venture.

Three Founders, Complementary Perspectives

At the heart of Barrister’s Choice is a founding team that combines textile knowledge with an engineering approach to manufacturing.

Twin brothers Er. Kushal Bansal and Er. Mudit Bansal hold Diplomas in Textile Technology from SASMIRA, Mumbai. Their education provides a technical foundation in fibres, yarns, fabrics and textile processes, helping them understand the material decisions behind a finished garment.

Er. Swapan Goyal brings a mechanical engineering background to the team. His perspective complements the textile expertise of the brothers, adding an understanding of machinery, processes and manufacturing systems.

Together, the founders bring different areas of knowledge to a common business objective: developing premium shirts with attention to material, construction and presentation.

Their collaboration reflects an important principle of entrepreneurship. Different technical perspectives can come together to create a stronger approach to product development.

Kushal and Mudit Bansal: Bringing Textile Education into Entrepreneurship

For Er. Kushal Bansal and Er. Mudit Bansal, the journey towards Barrister’s Choice represents an opportunity to apply their academic learning beyond the classroom.

Their Diploma in Textile Technology from SASMIRA, Mumbai, introduced them to the technical aspects of textile materials and production. Understanding how fibres, yarns and fabrics influence a garment provides a useful starting point for making informed product decisions.

At just 20 years of age, the twin brothers are translating this educational foundation into entrepreneurial ambition.

Their approach begins with the belief that even a classic product deserves careful consideration. A white shirt may appear simple, but its overall character depends on how its individual elements work together.

Fabric influences comfort and appearance. Collar construction affects the shirt's structure. Cuffs and proportions contribute to its visual identity, while stitching and finishing influence the overall presentation.

For the brothers, these details are not separate from the product. They are part of what defines it.

Swapan Goyal: Adding a Mechanical Engineering Perspective

Er. Swapan Goyal contributes a complementary perspective through his background in mechanical engineering.

While textile technology provides an understanding of fabrics and textile processes, mechanical engineering offers another way of looking at production, machinery and systems. This perspective can be valuable when considering how product ideas move from design concepts towards manufacturing.

As a co-founder, Swapan is part of the team working to bring technical thinking and creative ambition together under the Barrister’s Choice identity.

The combination of these backgrounds gives the founding team a broader foundation for approaching apparel development. Their shared objective is to build a brand where product decisions are guided by attention to detail and a clear understanding of the garment.

Why the White Shirt?

The white shirt is one of the most recognisable garments in professional dressing. It is worn across industries and professions, from legal practice and corporate leadership to entrepreneurship and institutional life.

Its simplicity, however, leaves little room for overlooking details.

When a garment uses a restrained colour palette and clean design, the quality of its fabric, proportions, construction and finishing becomes especially important.

This is the creative challenge that inspired Barrister’s Choice.

The brand draws inspiration from the discipline, dignity and credibility associated with the legal profession. The white shirt fits naturally within this setting, while also appealing to executives, entrepreneurs and other customers who value refined professional clothing.

The name Barrister’s Choice reflects this connection with professional identity and understated elegance.

Rather than relying on unnecessary visual complexity, the brand's direction centres on clean lines, considered proportions and a polished appearance.

Product Philosophy: Attention to the Details That Matter

Barrister’s Choice focuses on premium white and formal shirts for customers who value professional dressing.

The founding team's product philosophy brings together several considerations:

• Fabric selection: Attention to fabric composition, construction and feel.

• Collar design: Considering shape, structure and proportion.

• Cuff details: Maintaining a refined appearance through thoughtful design.

• Fit and comfort: Balancing professional presentation with ease of movement.

• Stitching and finishing: Giving attention to seams, construction and the final appearance.

• Product consistency: Working towards alignment between the intended design and the finished garment.

These elements collectively shape the identity of a shirt. The founders' aim is to build a product in which the quality and attention to detail support the brand's premium positioning.

For the team, the white shirt is not merely a basic wardrobe item. It is an opportunity to demonstrate how thoughtful product development can add value to a familiar essential.

Building an Indian Brand from Ludhiana

Barrister’s Choice is a brand of Celestia Corporation LLP, based in Ludhiana, Punjab.

Ludhiana provides the business with a regional base connected to India's apparel and manufacturing ecosystem. From this foundation, the founders are working towards establishing a distinct identity in the premium shirting segment.

The company behind the brand has been identified as a DPIIT-recognised startup and a registered MSME under Udyam, according to the information supplied by the founders.

These credentials form part of the company's entrepreneurial journey. More importantly, the creation of Barrister’s Choice represents an effort to apply technical education to a practical business venture.

For the founders, entrepreneurship offers an opportunity to move beyond studying how products are made and begin building a brand around their own product vision.

The Vision: Taking Indian Premium Shirting Beyond Borders

The long-term ambition of the three founders is to build Barrister’s Choice into an Indian premium shirting brand with international relevance.

Their vision includes reaching customers beyond India while continuing to develop the brand around Indian product development and craftsmanship.

International growth is an ambition they are working towards. Achieving it will require consistent product quality, a recognisable brand identity, customer trust and the ability to meet the expectations of different markets.

The founders see an opportunity to create a brand that combines technical understanding with contemporary professional style.

Their journey also reflects a wider possibility for young entrepreneurs: specialised education can become a starting point for building original businesses when combined with creativity, initiative and a willingness to take responsibility.

Three Young Minds, One Shared Entrepreneurial Direction

The journey of Er. Kushal Bansal, Er. Mudit Bansal and Er. Swapan Goyal demonstrates how different engineering backgrounds can contribute to a shared business idea.

Kushal and Mudit bring textile education and an understanding of fabrics and processes. Swapan adds a mechanical engineering perspective. Together, they are applying these complementary strengths to the development of Barrister’s Choice.

Their starting point is a simple but meaningful product: the white shirt.

What makes their story interesting is the thinking behind it. Instead of treating a familiar garment as an ordinary product, they are exploring how technical knowledge, attention to detail and creative direction can shape a distinctive brand.

As Barrister’s Choice develops, the founders' ambition is to establish a premium Indian apparel identity that reflects their shared belief in thoughtful product development.

For these three young entrepreneurs, the white shirt is only the beginning of a much larger vision.
