The company plans to add at least 1,000 beds in the National Capital Region (NCR) alone.

"We sell beds in a price range of Rs 11,000-18,000 per month, depending on city to city, location and available facilities. About 80-90 per cent of our occupants are working professionals between the age group of 25-35 years," he added.
