Management
Mr. Samir Jasuja is a reputed name in real estate sector, he is panelist in many real estate shows and running real estate related shows on NDTV and CNBC for many years. One good interview that I have come across
Sources
AGM Recroding , questions from 17:30 onwards
Conclusion : Very small company in data Analytics, the only peer comparison is Latent View Analytics, which is into various sectors. We have to wait and see what kind of product that they come up with for retail customers. There is clear gap in real estate sector when it comes to finding out the ongoing price, most of the time we rely on brokers.
