On-demand home services marketplace, Timesaverz has raised Series-A funding of Rs 15 crore from Ronnie Screwvala's Unilazer Ventures.

The company said it will use the funds to expand into new markets and launch new services. 

Founded by Debadutta Upadhyaya and Lovnish Bhatia, Timesaverz has been extending its service portfolio over the past few months to a numberof cities and now operates in five key metros. 

"Since the launch of its new interface both on the web and mobile, Timesaverz has been witnessing 3X growth in visits and 80% of the traffic is through mobile. The recent round of funding is aimed at bolstering our technology solutions and strengthening our product portfolio," said Upadhyaya.
