Why Nia exists
The people who power India's industry had no system built around their lives.
Migration succeeds only when savings survive the corridor.
The journey
From fifty Nests to infrastructure.
2024, Founded in Bangalore.
The first 50 Nests, then the model proven across four industrial corridors. Elevar Equity leads the seed round.
2025, 7,000+ members across four corridors.
No longer an idea. It is infrastructure.
2026, Approaching EBITDA break-even.
On the path to one million members by 2031.
What we are building
Migration continuity infrastructure.
Built to increase what a member keeps after they leave home. A place where his income does not restart with every move, his savings survive the corridor, and the life he builds carries with him. We do not profit when members move, we earn when they stay, save and rise.
