About Helium
Helium is a PropTech startup based in Bengaluru, India that has raised $0.6M in venture capital across 1 funding round since 2025. The company reached Seed stage in April 2026 with a $0.6M round led by institutional investors.
Helium is a full-stack residential rental management platform focused on premium gated community apartments in Bengaluru. The company leases homes directly from property owners — guaranteeing rental income — and re-rents them to verified tenants. Its flagship 'Deposit Saver' product lets creditworthy tenants move in with deposits as low as one month's rent, with the remainder financed through NBFC partner Fintree (RBI-registered), linked to the tenant's credit profile. The platform eliminates traditional broker-led processes with verified live listings, optimized property tours, and end-to-end rental lifecycle management. Helium focuses on the Whitefield IT corridor in Bengaluru and has onboarded 170+ homes from developer partners including Prestige Group, Brigade Group, Godrej Properties, and Sobha Limited, targeting a 14-day average rental cycle. Founded in January 2025 by Sahil Ludhani and Ashutosh Tandon (both former Zomato), the company raised Rs 5 crore (~$600K) in an angel seed round in April 2026 from prominent tech founders including Kunal Shah (CRED), Albinder Dhindsa (Blinkit), and multiple Zomato co-founders.
