For Ritika Jain Ahuja, Founder of Queens Drive Club (QDC) and COO of Big Boy Toyz, supercars are about more than horsepower, design and performance. Over the years, they have also become a means of bringing women together, creating meaningful connections and, increasingly, using collective influence to support causes that extend beyond the automotive world.
QDC began as an automotive community and has evolved into a platform for camaraderie, leadership, entrepreneurship and purpose. Today, India’s first all-women supercar collective, QDC has grown into a community of more than 100 women from diverse walks of life, united by a shared passion for luxury automobiles and experiences, the evolution of which came into focus with QDC’s first Mumbai drive on September 6, 2026.
Flagged off by Chief Guest Amruta Fadnavis at Bastian Beach Club, Juhu, the purpose-led drive brought together more than 70 women and was dedicated to cancer awareness. In partnership with PATH Foundation and with the support of V Care Foundation, QDC contributed towards cancer treatment, chemotherapy, palliative care and meal support, while committing to sponsor one lakh chemotherapy treatments.

The initiative was designed to move beyond awareness and create a tangible impact. As part of the post-drive programme, cancer survivors Chhavi Mittal and Tannishtha Chatterjee joined a panel discussion, bringing personal experiences of cancer into the conversation, alongside medical perspectives from doctors. By placing lived experiences at the centre of the event, QDC sought to make conversations around cancer more personal, relatable and accessible.
For Ritika, choosing cancer awareness for QDC’s Mumbai debut also reflects the changing role of communities built around luxury and privilege. A collective with visibility, resources and an engaged network can use those advantages to amplify important conversations and support people who need it. QDC’s contribution towards chemotherapy, treatment and palliative care demonstrates an attempt to turn that influence into action.
The initiative also brought together two of QDC’s core priorities — women’s leadership and community building. FICCI FLO Mumbai joined as Community Partner, further strengthening the focus on the ability of women-led networks to create meaningful social impact. QDC itself was founded on the idea of creating space for women in an industry traditionally perceived as male-dominated. Today, its members are not merely automotive enthusiasts; they are entrepreneurs, professionals, leaders and individuals building connections through a shared passion.

That sense of community is central to Ritika’s vision. The cars may provide the initial point of connection, but the relationships and conversations that emerge around them have allowed QDC to become something much larger. Its Mumbai debut illustrates how a luxury lifestyle platform can evolve into a vehicle for advocacy, philanthropy and social change without losing the passion that brought its members together in the first place.
As QDC continues to grow, its journey reflects a broader shift in the meaning of luxury communities. The experience is no longer defined solely by access, exclusivity or extraordinary automobiles, but by how that access can be channelled towards something meaningful.
