Crafting Excellence
Together

PGfy was founded by Sai Jagadeesh Chitroju, a student entrepreneur from the International Institute of Information Technology Bangalore. Having experienced the challenges of student accommodation firsthand and interacted with numerous PG and hostel operators, he identified a common problem: accommodation management remained largely manual and fragmented.

What started as a simple idea to improve the PG experience evolved into PGfy—a platform designed to help property owners manage tenants, payments, occupancy, and operations digitally while providing residents with a better accommodation experience.
