The founder, Sagar Hotwani belongs to a business family and has started learning about business since childhood. He has learned the skills of marketing and selling in childhood only.

He started doing job to support his family for sometime and realised that job is the not the way forward. Later he moved to pune from Indore and worked as a property consultant and started helping people to get flats on rent.
