FAQ

Is Indian proptech a winnable market?

Niche-by-niche. Rental discovery (NoBroker model) works at scale. Buying remains complicated by brokers, documentation, and trust. Most successful proptech companies pick one slice (rentals, co-living, short-stay, plots) rather than trying to solve all of real estate. Horizontal plays struggle.
