NoBrokerHood, the integrated visitor, community and payment management app by NoBroker.com on Monday said it has filed an FIR on June 28, 2020, against MyGate, to report that the latter has stolen its proprietary customer database. The Bengaluru-based firm also alleged that MyGate contacted NoBrokerHood customers to sell them their services.

Later the firm, which is also based in Bengaluru, filed an FIR against NoBroker on June 19. Business Standard has seen copies of both FIRs.
