Subhash Choudhary, co-founder and CTO of Dukaan, sold his Mumbai house bought for Rs 1.8 crore in 2018 to purchase a Ducati XDiavel motorcycle. After moving to Bengaluru post-2020 to build his startup, he continued paying over Rs 1 lakh monthly EMIs on the unused Mumbai property. Choudhary described the sale as a conscious choice to prioritize living in the present over long-term investment, citing the pressures and anxieties of startup life as factors in his decision.
