‘We want to be the operating system for homes” that’s the aspiration that the Co-Founders of Urban Company have for Asia’s largest Home tech platform.The New Kid on Dalal Street, Urban company got off to a solid start, listing at a 57% premium. The three Co-founders, Abhiraj Bhal, Varun Khaitan and Raghav Chandra tell me the listing felt surreal! “An emotional moment but one that comes with huge responsibility”“People ask us who is the global equivalent for Urban Company? The answer is there isn’t one!” While UC decided to go global in 2018, it intends to double down on the 3 international markets it currently operates in before foraying into more.Like their peers Eternal and Swiggy, Urban Company is pivoting to new streams of business to grow but they tell me investments will not come at the cost of profitability.“We want to be a company India is proud of. We want to be known as a company that does the right thing” that’s an audacious aspiration for a company that started in a 100 sq ft office in Delhi 11 years ago.
