PG management software for Chennai owners.
Velachery to Thoraipakkam — Chennai’s professionals live in PGs close to the office. Homly automates rent, electricity splits, food billing and WhatsApp reminders so you can run more beds with less chasing.
Built for how Chennai PGs actually run.
Chennai’s PG demand hugs the OMR IT corridor from Guindy to Sholinganallur, with a parallel student market around Anna University and the city’s engineering colleges. Salaried tenants pay by UPI and live on WhatsApp. Homly reads their payment screenshots, marks rent paid automatically, splits every electricity bill per tenant and keeps a clean ledger — so month-end takes minutes, not evenings.

PG software questions from Chennai
Is Homly built for PG owners in Chennai?
Yes. Homly is PG management software made for Indian paying-guest owners, and it works anywhere in Chennai — whether your PG is in Velachery, Thoraipakkam, Sholinganallur or elsewhere in the city. It handles per-tenant rent, electricity billing, food/mess management, WhatsApp reminders and tenant documents from one dashboard.
How does rent collection work for a Chennai PG?
Homly sends automated WhatsApp reminders before and on the due date. Tenants pay by UPI and send a payment screenshot; Homly’s AI reads the screenshot and asks you to approve or reject in one tap. Every payment is tracked with a clean receipt and a full tenant ledger.
Can I split electricity bills between tenants?
Yes. Enter your meter readings and Homly calculates each tenant’s electricity share automatically, then adds an itemised line to their monthly dues. Tenants see the breakdown, which removes the usual month-end arguments.
Do my Chennai tenants need to download an app?
No. Tenants receive WhatsApp reminders automatically and view their dues, receipts and raise maintenance requests through a simple web link. Nothing to install on either side.
Is there a free plan for Chennai PG owners?
Yes. Homly’s free plan covers 1 property and up to 5 rooms and 5 tenants, with unlimited WhatsApp reminders and no credit card. Paid plans start at ₹49/month and scale as your PG grows.
