What Zoominfo says about the firm

As per Zoominfo, the company has 19 employees and a revenue of USD 5 million. A Whois lookup, however, revealed that the company website was registered in 2015 by United Land Bank, headquartered at Sivan Chetty Gardens in Karnataka.

The website gave the address of Landomus Realty Ventures Inc as Secaucus, New Jersey, USA.

Zoominfo, which provides a database of companies, said "Landomus Realty Ventures Inc was formed for the purpose of acquiring land parcels and creating land banks in India".

An email sent to the email address listed on the company website remained unanswered. The email sought information about the firm, its source of funding, information on promoters and its backers, revenues and purpose of issuing the advertisement remained answered.

Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman had announced the NIP in December 2019. Under the NIP, the Centre has projected a total infrastructure investment worth 111 lakh crore during FY20-25.
