Business Overview
Confirmed- Kiwi India Private Limited is the Bengaluru-based Indian entity of "Kiwi, Inc." (parent company headquartered in Santa Monica, California, US)
- Kiwi, Inc. is a mobile-entertainment company that built social/live-gaming apps

- MCA business classification for the Indian entity is "other computer-related activities" (software/website/multimedia services), consistent with it functioning as the Indian dev/ops arm rather than a revenue-generating consumer-facing entity in India
