Founder, MumbaiProperties Consulting & RealtyTechGuru

With 31 years in Mumbai commercial real estate, Ramprasad Padhi decided experience alone was not enough — so he added AI, then digital, then influence, and packaged everything he learned into RealtyTechGuru, a platform that turns invisible brokers into new-age realtors, one cohort at a time. Founder of MumbaiProperties Consulting, he runs a zero-kickbacks advisory firm serving corporates and CXOs across Mumbai's prime office corridors, while also running WhatsApp-delivered AI bootcamps, building Google My Business cohorts, and creating Hinglish content that realtors share without being asked. His creativity is his signature — from a Siberian Husky mascot named Bhalu that has taught more realtors about personal branding than most training programmes, to the Hayabusa named Despoine he rides, because a man who lives beyond brokerage also lives beyond ordinary. He is Chairperson of Member Training at NAR India and holds CIPS, TRC and e-PRO® designations as an NAR USA International Member, among other credentials. A Founder Member of AREA Mumbai and its President from 2016–2018, his vision is the digital transformation of the realtor industry.
