We’ve been operators and entrepreneurs ourselves. We’ve helped build and run India’s largest new-age businesses, and know, first-hand, the challenges CEOs face as they grow their businesses. Having walked a mile in their shoes, we’re able to provide founders we’ve invested in with practical inputs. Our deep, localized understanding—as operators, investors and advisors—across a spectrum of sectors, from retail and fintech, to media and SaaS, enables us to bring a unique edge to growth investing in India.

We invest in propositions that have demonstrated product-market fit and favourable unit-economics, while targeting large TAMs. Businesses that are at an inflexion point, beyond which they can scale rapidly. We understand that capital—while important—is only table stakes in these situations. We’ve scaled a business from inception to a billion dollars in one year, and know the planning, leadership, and relentless multi-pronged execution that is required. We use this experience to support our portfolio founders as they launch products, enter new channels and markets, hire senior leaders, and execute acquisitions and alliances, all without losing day-to-day operating momentum.

We helped build one of the foundational pillars of digital India. And we have built, and invested in, multiple businesses—from retail and media, to finance and education—that ride on this backbone. We understand the transformational impact that technology can have on consumption and business models in India: Digital India 1.0 has only scratched the surface—Digital India 2.0 will empower a billion consumers and 60 million entrepreneurs. We work with founders who share this vision, and who will become the next generation of leaders of India Inc.

We are selective, data-driven investors - we make high-conviction investments in companies that we believe can achieve breakout growth with our help. As patient investors, we commit to supporting our portfolio companies through their growth journeys, bringing to bear our experience as advisors on growth, organization and performance. We understand that the entrepreneurial road is often lonely. Having walked that path ourselves, we provide guidance where needed.
