Problem Statement
Most PG and co-living owners in India still rely on spreadsheets, paper records, WhatsApp, and manual follow-ups to manage their properties. As the number of tenants grows, tracking occupancy, rent collection, tenant records, and daily operations becomes increasingly difficult, leading to missed payments, operational inefficiencies, and poor tenant experiences. Existing property management solutions are often designed for apartments rather than bed-level PG management, making them unsuitable for the unique needs of PG businesses.

Designed HarGharPG, a comprehensive PG management platform that helps owners manage rooms, beds, tenants, rent collection, billing, and daily operations from a single dashboard. The platform simplifies property management through automation, real-time insights, and multi-language support, making it accessible to PG owners across India.
