Aurum Proptech Q2 2026: Solid Revenue Growth as Net Losses Trimmed

October 21, 2025

Aurum Proptech, the parent company of India-based real estate marketplaces NestAway, PropTiger, and HelloWorld, among other businesses, has released its second-quarter financial results for the 2026 financial year.

Highlights include:

  • Revenues hit INR 8.7 billion (USD 9.5 million), up 29% year-on-year
  • Net losses were INR 84 million (USD 0.95 million), down 30% year-on-year
  • EBITDA Margin was 30%, up from 22% in the same period last year
  • Adjusted EBITDA margin is 3%, down slightly from 4% in the same period last year

NestAway is a leading rentals platform in India, and Aurum Proptech's Rentals segment reflects this. Revenues hit INR 541 million (USD 6.1 million), up 25% year-on-year, but it came at a cost, as losses for the segment tripled to INR 36.3 million (USD 412k) year-on-year.

NestAway also launched in the UAE under the name Nestr this quarter, while profits from the company's Distribution segment saw Aurum trim its after-tax losses by 30.7% y-o-y to INR84.1 million.

Onkar Shetye, executive director at Aurum Proptech, said:

"Aurum PropTech delivered a profitable Q2 FY26 performance, reflecting resilience and disciplined growth across all verticals. The Distribution business grew 62% Y-o-Y through AI-led product innovation in Sell.do and Aurum Analytica’s expanding footprint. The Rental business achieved 25% Y-o-Y growth, driven by HelloWorld’s scale and NestAway’s fourfold rise in monthly revenue run rate, alongside the U.A.E. launch of ‘Nestr’.

"On the capital side, we continued to take a cautious and strategic approach before launching our first small-and-medium real estate investment trust asset, ensuring readiness and regulatory alignment."

Earlier this year, Aurum unexpectedly acquired the real estate marketplace PropTiger from REA India, taking total control of the business as it expands into sales. REA India took a 5.5% equity shareholder in Aurum as part of the USD 9.97 million deal.

HelloWorld, a coliving and student hostels operator, added 19 buildings with over 1,100 additional units under management this quarter, with an average of 73% occupancy nationwide.
