Quikr is a free classifieds and online marketplace that helps users to sell, buy, rent, or discover anything across India. Community members can come to their site to find an apartment to live in, sell their old car, bike ,music system, laptop or furniture, promote their small business, find a tuition class or get a break as a model or actor, join a salsa class, get an audience for a local event, buy any item that they might want or have to offer and make new friends while doing all of the above.

Their aim is to empower every person in the country to independently connect with buyers and sellers online. Their idea is to consistently keep adding something game-changing and worthwhile to your Quikr experience - whether it is QuikrNXT, the freedom to buy or sell without risking your privacy, or the missed call service, to give Quikr access to the masses who aren’t online today but would have internet access in the near future.
