NEW DELHI: Within a week of CEO Rahul Yadav's exit from the online realty startup, Housing.com's website has been hacked. However, no one has claimed responsibility for the hack as of now.



The Housing.com home page has been defaced, showing the message below; the phrase 'Chief Architect' seems to refer to Yadav, with the message as a call for his reinstatement as the chief executive.





Yadav, who was sacked after tiffs with investors as well as the media, wrote on his Facebook profile that he is not involved with the hack.







An IIT-Bombay dropout, Yadav has had a tumultuous relationship with the investors, whom he once called "intellectually capable enough to have any sensible discussion anymore" in his resignation letter, though he still remained with the company after he apologized to them. Soon thereafter, he gave away his shares worth Rs 200 crore to Housing.com employees.



He has even gone out of his way to bait CEOs of Ola Cabs and Zomato, who only rebuffed him. The Housing.com co-founder even tried to poke fun at Infosys CEO Vishal Sikka through a Facebook post.



Here are a few reactions on the Housing.com hacking by Twitter users:
