6 January, 2016, Mumbai: Housing.com has hit the news once again and this time it is not because of their ex-CEO Rahul Yadav. As per its recent financial report, the company has suffered a loss of INR 279 Cr. The financial data suggests that the company has generated a total revenue of Rs 12.7 Cr in the fiscal year 2014-2015. It has generated Rs 5.5 Cr revenue from operations only.
