Tooler's Facebook and Twitter  pages continue to say that the startup is undergoing renovation and will resume operations after 15 February 2016. The message reads: The website, however, does not say anything on suspending or resuming operations.

Queries sent to the company did not elicit a response at the time of filing the report.

A YourStory report said it has closed down for good citing a text message from one of the founders.

Tooler was founded in June 2015 by Himanshu Arora, Vishal Gupta and Sukanth Srivastav and offers its services in Gurgaon, Delhi and Ghaziabad.

In November 2015, the startup raised an undisclosed amount in pre-Series A funding from CASHurDRIVE founder Raghu Khanna and former Paytm executive Samir Gupta.

In December 2015, on-demand home cleaning and laundry startup SBricks acquired facility management services company Melway for an undisclosed amount.
