ORU STAYS PRIVATE LIMITED

What ORU STAYS PRIVATE LIMITED does

ORU STAYS PRIVATE LIMITED trades as Oru Villas and operates a curated, direct-to-consumer luxury private-villa rental portfolio across Udaipur (Rajasthan), Goa, and Thailand. Founded in 2018 by Chetan R Jain — previously a physics teacher — the company began as a swimming-pool booking platform before pivoting into private-villa hospitality, and now runs or markets roughly 21 named villas ranging from a 2BHK couple's retreat (BR Villa) at ₹14,000/night to an 11BHK group property (Ghudshal Viola) at ₹60,000/night. The portfolio is organized under a unified brand with two sub-lines: the mainstream Oru Villas collection and the premium Oru Luxe tier, supplemented by an events B2B unit (Oru Ventures) and a Property Partner Program that allows third-party owners to onboard inventory.

The product surface comprises fully serviced private villas with private chef, housekeeping, and curated experiences (floating breakfasts, aqua sound healing, sky beds, foam parties, kayaking, horse riding). There is no proprietary technology platform in evidence; bookings flow predominantly through a WhatsApp Business deep-link, with parallel listings on MakeMyTrip, Booking.com, and Airbnb for broader acquisition and a content blog driving top-of-funnel traffic. The GTM motion is DTC-first, targeting family/group travelers, couples, corporate clients, and event hosts at ₹12,500–₹60,000 per night with ancillary revenue from meal packages, private chef services, activities, and event decoration add-ons.

The operating entity is a private limited company incorporated in Rajasthan, India (GSTIN 08BURPJ9795B1ZX), owned and operated by the parent Oru Rentals, with no disclosed institutional funding, no published revenue, and a single named enterprise customer (IIT Gandhinagar) for corporate hospitality. The revenue model is fundamentally a per-night vacation rental (one-time license equivalent) augmented by professional services revenue from add-ons and event packages, with concentration risk diffused across a long-tail of individual leisure bookers.
