The original idea

Students were moving from Tier 2 & Tier 3 cities to Tier 1 cities for their education.

Move to a new city
Find a flat
Avoid brokerage

So we started helping students find flats without brokerage.
02

Then we noticed a bigger problem

Rent was expensive. Furniture was worse.

50–60%

of a student's monthly budget goes into rent + furniture.

😧Too expensive. Not sustainable.

The turning point

Why buy everything when you're probably going to move again?

RENT IT.

That's when the idea for Gharbar took shape.

Gharbar was born – 2023

In 2023, we launched Gharbar. A furniture rental company built specifically around the needs of college students.

Peace of mind

A flat is just four walls.

A Ghar needs a BAR.

BAR=Basic Amenities on Rent

We believe you don't need to own everything to make a place feel like home. You just need the basics that help you live, study and thrive.

OUR MISSION

To make basic student living affordable, accessible, and dignified.

OUR VISION

Every student has access to basic living standards to live, study, and thrive, regardless of their budget.

A new city is already overwhelming.

Your furniture shouldn't be.

Gharbar

Live easy. Move freely.
