In 2018, I started a Facebook page called Power of Being One. Not a company. Not a pitch deck. Just a conviction I couldn't let go of.

I had spent years building businesses — advertising, events, exports — sitting across tables from large organisations, watching how institutional buying power worked. And then I'd watch the same people, smart and hardworking, walk into a developer's office alone to buy their home — and get outmanoeuvred every single time. Not because they were less intelligent. Because they were alone and the other side wasn't.

The idea stayed on a back burner until the day I explained it to a close friend on a drive back from holiday. Before I'd finished, he reached into his pocket, pulled out ₹1,000, and said he was the first founding member.

No website. No prototype. Just a problem he recognised immediately — because he'd lived it — and a solution he trusted on the spot.

That was the moment POBO stopped being an idea and became something I had to build.

I want to be honest with you about where we are. We haven't closed our first collective yet. We built the legal framework first, the vetting process second, and the platform third — because we believe that anyone asking you to trust them with a ₹3 Cr decision should earn that trust before asking for it, not after.

Our founding collectives are now live and forming across NCR.

If you have ever felt alone negotiating the biggest purchase of your life — you belong here.

We would be honoured to have you among our first.
