10. Disruptive Startups
from India
A lot of startups in India have entered the industry either unearthing an entirely new
market or through gaps in existing markets or product lines. Although there are many
successful startups, here are five, that are growing rapidly and changing how an existing
industry works in the process. Namely :
Between 2010 and 2014, the infusion of VC and
PE increased from $13 million to $1,818 million.
Angel investment too has multiplied almost 8
times from $4.2 million to $32.2 million
Housing.com - They’re growing intelligently
and rapidly and surpassed all competition
within two years of launch. They recently
acquired Delhi-based Realty Business
Intelligence for an estimated USD 2-4
million. Realty BI tracks real estate trends
and creates collateral risk management tools
through the use of technology. Though,
recently, Housing itself has been in the news
for more reasons than they probably wanted.

13. Disruptive Startups
from India (Cont’d…)
Redbus - It’s incomprehensible to imagine
now that there was nothing like RedBus for
a long time despite the thriving existence of
MakeMyTrip and Yatra. When an increasing
number of consumers were booking tickets
online for trains and flights, why were
buses left out? This compelling question
gave birth to RedBus, now acquired by the
ibibo Group for $138 Million.
