Rentomojo is targeting an occupancy rate of 80-83%, said Geetansh Bamania, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of the company, while speaking to NDTV Profit on Monday.

Bamania said the company does not want to operate at either a very high or very low occupancy rate, with 80-83% being the level it aims to maintain.

“There is an occupancy risk in the company's business,” he said, adding that the company is focused on finding the right balance rather than maximising occupancy.

Bamania said Rentomojo is currently an operation-heavy company and has around 11 touchpoints available for consumers.

The CEO noted that in FY26, the company purchased "close to about Rs 175 crore worth of inventory altogether". That also means "every year we have to go outside and raise a bunch of debt and manage that break even consumption", he added.

Refurbishing remains a key part of the company's business model. “Refurbishing is the soul of our business,” Bamania said.

Around 56-60% of Rentomojo's operations are currently generating revenue, according to Bamania. He also said the company's current attrition rate is around 22-23%.
