Designer Masaba Gupta, creative head for the Satya Paul label for the last two years, is leaving homegrown fashion house Genesis Colors, which is the holding company for the label.

"The designer will launch her final collection for Satya Paul in November 2014, details of which will be shared shortly," the company said in a statement, adding Gupta's contract with Genesis Colors has come to an end.

Gupta, who is the daughter of noted Bollywood actress Neena Gupta, has been at the creative helm of the brand since 2012 and has been instrumental in adding a fresh twist to the Satya Paul label, it added.

"Under Masaba's young vision as the fashion director, the brand has become a strong contemporary reference in the Indian fashion industry," the statement said.

Commenting on the announcement, Genesis Colors Managing Director Sanjay Kapoor said: "Her distinctive approach to design and innovative spirit gave a newfound energy to Satya Paul that we will continue to take forward."

On her departure, Gupta said she was "grateful to Sanjay Kapoor for giving me the opportunity to become an integral part of the legendary label".
