Suresh Rangarajan is the founder and CEO of CoLife. His Eureka moment came when he discovered that there was a huge gap between demand and supply in India. On one end, developers were struggling with excess inventory, and on the other end, millennials were suffering with lack of supply of quality homes. This presented a huge opportunity in trying to bridge this large gap.
