Ankith Reddy

Bengaluru

He was a journalist before he was a founder.

He has been building since he was nineteen.

Proptech, mediatech, edtech, deeptech.

Multiple companies, all his own.

A decade of building, and more than seven awards. Founder, entrepreneur, journalist, author.

Who he is

Ankith Reddy is an Indian entrepreneur based in Bengaluru. Since the age of nineteen he has built companies across proptech, mediatech, edtech and deeptech, and runs them alongside work as an author and in film.

He was born in Kadapa, in Andhra Pradesh, and came to Bengaluru for the work. He read business administration at Bangalore University and journalism and mass communication at IGNOU, and started in a newsroom before he started in business. His work has since been recognised with more than seven awards.

The companies have little in common with each other. A property platform, a media house, a realty practice, a schools app and an aerospace workshop are not a strategy so much as a habit. What connects them is that he tends to start the thing rather than wait for it.

The ten year arc

  1. Nineteen

    The first business, in interiors and renovation. Everything since has been a version of starting one.

  2. The newsroom

    Vijaya Chronicle, reporting local news in the local language. The training that shows in all of it.

  3. Property

    Ankith Realtors. Two lakh customers and more, a hundred of them names you would know, and a close look at what brokerage really costs people.

  4. Classrooms

    Langford Academy. Training people for the work that actually exists, rather than the work the syllabus remembers.

  5. Aerospace

    Puneeth Rajkumar Research and Development. Aerospace, defence and prosthetics, and the least expected turn of all of them.

  6. 2025

    HomePage. Zero brokerage on both sides, and the reason most people arrive at his name at all.

The companies

HomePage

Zero brokerage, on both sides of the deal.

Property platform, Bengaluru, 2025. Legal paperwork, painting, plumbing and interiors handled in the same place as the listing.

homepage.homes

Vijaya Chronicle

Local news, in the local language.

Media house, Bengaluru, 2022. He is still its editor-in-chief. Civic reporting and investigative work, and the company that taught him to ask before he builds.

Company profile

Ankith Realtors

2 lakh+ customers, and 100+ names you would know.

Consulting out of Indiranagar since 2015: high-end transactions, luxury interiors, whole-property renovations. Celebrities and politicians on one side, families on the other, and a close view of what brokerage really costs people. The practice that became the argument for HomePage.

Langford Academy

The gap between what is taught and what is hired.

A skilling academy in Bengaluru: advanced training and practical programmes across creative and technical fields. He was on the founding team.

Puneeth Rajkumar R&D

Aerospace, defence, robotics, prosthetics.

He is chief executive here. Precision components to defence tolerances, electronics and PCBs, and myoelectric prosthetics. The least likely thing on this list, and the one he is least often asked about.
