ACCELERATION AND GROWTH

The company’s co-founders may never have imagined such a steady growth of their company in a short span of time. They had registered the company name in 2013, and their excellent idea and impressive business model soon got them ample funding of 11 million dollars in 2014. It worked in stealth mode until 2016, when it raised $16 million in funding from Draper Fisher Jurvetson (DFJ).

Years of relentless hard work helped the company witness a paramount increase in its success graph. From just one office in Mumbai to having 34 offices Pan-India, the company has had substantial growth. This is due to customer satisfaction and integrity in their approach over the years.
