What happened? 1️⃣goSTOPS got a bunch of money from investors. This is called "funding." 2️⃣They got 35 crore rupees (which is about $4.2 million). Think of it like a big boost to help them grow. 3️⃣Many different groups of people who invest money, called "investors," gave them this money. Why did they get the money? 1️⃣goSTOPS wants to make their hostels even better. 2️⃣They'll use the money to improve their technology (like their website and apps), make their hostels more fun and social, and make sure everything runs smoothly. 3️⃣They also want to open a lot more hostels! They plan to go from having 2,500 beds to 10,000 beds in 100 different places in the next two years. That's a huge expansion. Why are hostels popular? 1️⃣A lot of young people (70%!) like staying in hostels more than regular hotels. 2️⃣Hostels are usually cheaper and they're great for meeting new people.

They got a lot of money to grow bigger and better, because more and more young people like staying in hostels when they travel.
