The funds will be used by the company for increasing sales of tickets, expanding into major cities across the country, as well as for product development.

The company was founded last year by the duo of Sachin Sharma and Sanchit Malik. Prior to starting Townscript, Sharma had co-founded a mobile app development company in the content and utility domain, while Malik was working with a travel startup.
