Founder - Burn Inves...ย โ€ขย 3m

Housing.com - A Startup That Could Have Been So Much More Housing.com was one of the most talked startups back in 2014/15 started by a group of IIT Bombay students it had a fresh idea make house hunting in India easy, clean, and online. Investors loved it the product looked great they even ran huge billboard ads across Indian cities with the line โ€œLook Upโ€ But inside the company things were a mess. The CEO Rahul Yadav was smart but unpredictable he fought with investors sent angry emails and even gave away all his shares to employees just to make a point he didnโ€™t want anyone questioning him not even the board. Eventually the investors had no choice but to remove him the company didnโ€™t shut down but it lost momentum. It merged with PropTiger and has stayed alive but never became the game changer it once promised to be.
