Homigo founded by three IIT Kanpur graduates – Nikunj Batheja (CEO), Jatin Mitruka (COO) and Aakash Verma (CTO) started their operations in July 2015 and within short span of 3 months they have marked their presence.

Homigo provides tenants fully furnished space at an extremely low security deposit and also saves them from brokerage, security deposit. Homigo takes up houses on rent from owners and turns them into ‘Homigo Houses’ by furnishing, providing electrical appliances, household objects like cutlery, utensils etc., and services like electricity, Internet and others, to make it convenient for people.

“We are choosy when it comes to selecting houses. If you see our current houses you will notice a lot of good societies where there all the amenities like gym, pool and a well-maintained club house. Most of the upcoming Homigo houses that you will see will be in societies where bachelors find it difficult to get a house. All in all, Homigo is not just a company, it’s a solution; a solution for owners as well as tenants,” says Nikunj (CEO, Homigo)

The company plans to reach around 10,000 areas in the coming one year spread across Bangalore, Hyderabad, Pune and Chennai, including 500 only in Bengaluru by this funding.
