Saptarang — सप्तरंग — is the seven colours of the spectrum. One beam of white light goes into a prism and a whole spectrum comes out of it. That is the shape of this company: a single Indian entity, incorporated in Nashik, behind four independent online ventures that share nothing with each other except the discipline that built them.
Four businesses, four audiences, four brands. Each keeps its own colour — the swatch on every card is the venture's real one, taken from its own site, not assigned to it here.
A free global classifieds marketplace — community, housing, jobs, for sale, services, gigs, résumés and an agri-market. Listings carry their own currency and expire honestly rather than lingering after the thing has sold.
Visit caio.ltd →Free hugs. Some days you could do with one, some days you have one to give. The two rules that make it safe — you can only hug somebody who asked, and nobody can message you until you both said yes — are enforced by the code itself, not by moderation after the fact.
Visit freehug.me →Book world-class performance artists for events — singers, musicians, dancers and more — connecting artists directly with the people who want to hire them, without the layers that usually sit in between.
Visit idlidu.com →Buy and sell nanomaterials, nanotechnology equipment and lab supplies — carbon nanotubes, graphene, quantum dots. A research group should be able to read a specification before it spends a grant on it.
Visit nanoMani.com →Four separate products, and deliberately not four separate companies.
One incorporation, one PAN, one bank account, one set of books. A customer of any venture is contracting with the same registered Indian company, and can find out exactly which one from any page of any of the four sites.
The ventures are built on a common stack and deployed the same way, so a lesson paid for once — about payments, about deliverability, about data protection — is not paid for again on the next site.
Statutory filings, tax, payment-gateway onboarding and data-protection obligations are handled once at the parent rather than four times over, which is most of the reason a holding company exists at all.
The name promises seven and four are running. The company's remit is consumer and scientific marketplaces on the open web, built small, launched properly, and kept honest about what they are — and there is room in the spectrum for three more.
