Who are Livspace's major investors?

Major investors in Livspace include Goldman Sachs, Ingka Group (IKEA's parent company), KKR, Jungle Ventures, and various other venture capital and growth equity investors.

Is Livspace listed on BSE or NSE?

Does Livspace operate in Singapore?

How do I buy Livespace Interiors unlisted shares here?

Raise an enquiry on any company with the quantity you want. Our desk sources the shares and comes back with a firm price and allocation. You accept the allocation, transfer the funds to the desk's published bank account, and once we verify payment the shares are transferred into your demat.

Who am I actually transacting with?

You transact with the desk, not with an anonymous counterparty. When you buy, you buy from the desk; when you sell, you sell to the desk. Shares always route through the desk's own demat account, so there's one accountable party for the whole trade.

How do I pay, and is there a payment gateway?

Payment is by direct bank transfer to Prospire Network Private Limited's published account (CIN U82300UP2025PTC233622), shown to you in-app at the payment step. There is no card gateway and no escrow. Never pay to a personal account or to any account shared over phone, WhatsApp or email — even if the person claims to be from our team.

How long does settlement take?

After you accept an allocation, you have a short window to pay (typically 2 days). Once payment is verified, shares are usually credited to your demat within 2–3 business days, subject to depository timelines and any company-level restrictions. Timeframes are typical, not guaranteed.

There are no separate platform fee lines and no GST on the transfer — the desk's margin is built into the buy/sell price you're quoted. The only statutory add-on on a purchase is stamp duty on the consideration, shown transparently in your cost breakdown.

Is there a minimum ticket size for Livespace Interiors?

Minimums vary by company and depend on the lot the desk can source. Raise an enquiry and the desk will confirm the available quantity and the minimum for that name.

What KYC do I need, and do I need a demat account?

You'll share your demat details when you enquire so we can settle directly. Full KYC — PAN and a client-master / demat statement — is required before the transfer step, when shares actually change hands. Yes, you need an active demat account to hold unlisted shares.

Are there lock-ins on unlisted or pre-IPO shares?

Some shares carry statutory or company-imposed lock-ins — for example, a post-listing lock-in on pre-IPO stock — and transfers can be subject to the company's articles or approvals. Where a lock-in applies, we'll flag it before you commit.

How do I sell Livespace Interiors shares I already hold?

Raise a sell enquiry with the company, quantity and your target price. The desk confirms a buying price, you transfer your shares into the desk's demat, and once the credit is verified we pay you out by bank transfer to your registered account. The desk never pays out before your shares are received.

Unlisted shares are illiquid, may be hard or impossible to sell, and are not covered by exchange settlement guarantees or investor-protection funds. Pricing is indicative, not live. Read the full Risk Disclosure before you enquire, and invest only what you can afford to lock away.

Investment Thesis

Livspace is India's most prominent home interior design unicorn, backed by world-class investors including Goldman Sachs and IKEA's parent company. It has successfully built a technology-enabled marketplace model in a historically fragmented and unorganized sector. While the path to profitability and competition from local players remain key watchpoints, Livspace's scale, brand, and strategic partnerships position it as a strong long-term contender. An eventual IPO could be a transformative liquidity event.

Pros

India's leading end-to-end home interior design platform, recognised as a unicorn (valuation >$1 billion) with backing from top-tier global investors including Goldman Sachs, Ingka Group (IKEA), and KKR
Operates a unique marketplace model combining technology-enabled design, verified contractor network, and material procurement — providing a full-stack solution that competitors find difficult to replicate
Presence across India's top metropolitan markets (Bangalore, Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Hyderabad, Chennai, Pune) and international markets (Singapore, Dubai)
Partnership with Ingka Group (IKEA's parent retail group) validates the brand's quality standards and provides cross-sell opportunities with IKEA's product portfolio
India's home interior design market is estimated at $30+ billion and is highly fragmented, providing significant opportunity for an organised, technology-enabled player

Cons

Reported persistent losses: Livspace has consistently reported net losses as it invests heavily in expansion, technology, and brand building — profitability timeline remains uncertain
Home interior design projects are high-ticket and long-cycle, making revenue recognition lumpy and execution quality difficult to standardize at scale across thousands of contractors
The business faced significant headwinds during COVID-19 and has had to undertake workforce restructuring, raising concerns about operational efficiency
Highly competitive landscape with both organized players (HomeLane, Homelane, Design Cafe) and unorganized local interior designers competing on price and personal relationships
The registered Indian entity (Livespace Interiors Pvt Ltd, UP-based) may be a subsidiary of the Singapore-incorporated parent holding company, creating potential structural complexity for Indian shareholders

Business Segments

Modular Kitchen & Wardrobes

Design, manufacture, and installation of modular kitchen units and wardrobe furniture — the highest-value product category in home interiors with strong repeat potential across new home purchases.

Full Home Interior Design

End-to-end interior design and execution for entire apartments and villas including false ceiling, flooring, painting, electrical, and furniture — typically for new homebuyers.

Renovation & Allied Services

Renovation projects for existing homes including kitchen remodeling, bathroom upgrades, and partial room renovation services for established homeowners.

Revenue Model

Livspace generates revenue by acting as a full-stack interior services platform — earning margins on design services, material and product sales (furniture, fittings, tiles, paint), and project execution by contractor partners. Revenue is project-based and is recognized progressively through the project lifecycle (typically 45-90 days for full home projects). The marketplace model allows Livspace to earn on both the supply side (verified contractor commissions) and demand side (design package fees and material procurement margins).

Frequently Asked Questions

About Livespace Interiors

Livespace Interiors Private Limited is a Noida-based interior design and space planning company incorporated on 24 June 2016. Operating from Sector 45, Noida, Uttar Pradesh, the company provides interior design, renovation, and space transformation services primarily in the NCR (National Capital Region) market. The company has demonstrated strong financial momentum: in FY2024, its revenue grew by 102.23% year-on-year, reflecting robust demand for interior design services in the post-pandemic era where home improvement spending surged across urban India. Profitability saw an even more dramatic improvement, with profits rising 1,567.48% in the same period, indicating significant operating leverage as the business scaled. The Indian interior design market has been on an upswing, driven by rapid urbanization, rising disposable incomes, and the proliferation of real estate projects across Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities. Noida and the broader NCR region represent one of the most active residential and commercial real estate markets in India, making Livespace Interiors well-positioned geographically. The company has an authorized share capital of Rs 2.00 crore and a paid-up capital of Rs 1.68 crore, indicating it remains a small-to-mid scale enterprise. Its board of three directors — Anand Dhall, Vikas, and Saumyasanta Nayak — brings expertise in business development and project management. Livespace Interiors serves residential clients looking for complete home interior solutions as well as small-to-medium commercial clients for office fitouts. The company's rapid revenue doubling in FY2024 positions it as a fast-growing player in the fragmented Indian interior design sector.
