Gurgaon Founder Explains Choosing Rs 30 Lakh Rent Over Living Rent-Free With ParentsPreviousNext

Rohan Dhawan, a Gurgaon-based founder, chooses to pay Rs 30 lakh annually in rent for his own flat despite having a rent-free option in his parents' four-story Delhi home. He explains this decision as an investment in personal space, a healthier marriage, and improved family relationships, noting that living separately has strengthened his bond with his parents through regular weekend visits.
