Housing.co.in Raises Second Round From Haresh Chawla


Bangalore: Mumbai based Housing.co.in raised its second round of funding in less than a month of its previous investment from former Network 18 CEO, Mr. Haresh Chawla. However, the details on the funding are yet to be disclosed.

Incorporated in 2012, Housing.co.in is a location based rental property listing portal which also has its own mobile site for cell phone users. Currently the company focuses only on Mumbai and its suburb areas.

Advitiya Sharma, Co-Founder Housing.co.in said, “Having just raised our first round some time back, we weren’t looking to raise money this early. But Haresh expressed his interest in our product and was really impressed with the team. He liked the speed at which we execute and by the end of the dinner, we had closed on our second round of funding.”

Advitiya further shared that the investment has done the team’s confidence a great deal of good. He says, “the manner in which the investment happened and moreso, the person who’s behind the investment has really got everyone in the team pumped up. Haresh has done quite a lot through his career and we’re really excited about the prospect of working with him.”
