Crib, a property management app founded by Sunny Garg, Shaifali Jain, and Archit Chauhan in 2021, has unveiled its latest product, Crib Plus, a pro version of their current tool. Crib made an investment exceeding $1 million to develop Crib Plus. The new version will cater specifically to the needs of large-scale student housing and co-living brands. This strategic move comes as these segments are poised for exponential growth in the coming years. According to last estimates from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), India's residential rental market surpasses $20 billion, with urban areas accounting for 68% of this figure, equating to $13.5 billion. A December 2021 report by Colliers revealed that India's co-living market is on track to double by 2024. Additionally, a study conducted by Colliers India in June 2023 projected exponential growth in the student housing sector, driven by an anticipated influx of students reaching 31 million by 2036. The study underscored a significant gap between the existing supply of student beds (7.5 million) and the burgeoning demand, indicating substantial potential for growth in this sector. Crib's investment in Crib Plus underscores its commitment to addressing the evolving needs of the real estate market, particularly in the dynamic landscape of student housing and co-living.
