Private Balance Sheet
We deploy our own capital. No LP fund clocks, no artificial exit pressures.
Four Anchor Platforms
High-conviction investments in Kineco, CORE Energy, AirLife Gases, and Agnikul.
10+ Year Horizon
Patient partnership for businesses with complex engineering and long qualification cycles.
OUR THESIS
India’s next generation of companies will not be built only in software.
For years, Indian venture capital was largely understood through consumer internet, fintech, and software services. That era laid vital digital foundations, but India is ready for something substantially broader.
The defining businesses of the next thirty years will be forged in workshops, precision machining bays, engineering centres, and launch facilities.
These businesses take years to build. They solve technically hard problems and require founders willing to build before the market makes it obvious.
OUR COMMITMENT
India has no shortage of important problems to solve. We want to back the people choosing to solve them.
If you’re building in advanced manufacturing, deeptech, energy, or space, we’d love to hear what you’re working on.
For profit. For good. For India.
PORTFOLIO
Companies We Have Backed
Every investment begins with conviction in a company, its founders, and what they are setting out to build.
AEROSPACE & DEFENCE
Kineco
Advanced Composites for Aerospace, Defence & Rail
Kineco designs and manufactures critical composite assemblies that must withstand extreme environments. Developing these capabilities requires years of domain expertise, stringent quality certifications, and capital discipline.
NUCLEAR ENERGY · HEAVY ENGINEERING
CORE Energy
Engineering for India's Nuclear Power Future
Providing specialised engineering and equipment manufacturing across nuclear energy and defence. In a sector with high barriers to entry and long qualification cycles, CORE sits at the intersection of rising baseload power demand and domestic manufacturing.
SPECIALTY GASES · INFRASTRUCTURE
AirLife Gases
Critical High-Purity Gas Supply Chains
Supplying helium and ultra-high-purity specialty gases required by semiconductor fabrication, medical MRI imaging, and aerospace. AirLife is building the domestic distribution footprint to protect vital industries from supply interruptions.
SPACE TECHNOLOGY · LAUNCH VEHICLES
Agnikul Cosmos
Flexible Orbital Launch Powered by 3D Printing
Developing customizable small-satellite launch vehicles powered by patented, single-piece 3D-printed rocket engines. Agnikul successfully flight-tested its semi-cryogenic engine from India’s first privately developed launchpad.
OUR UNDERWRITING
What Earns Our Conviction
We care less about buzzwords or market trends, and more about whether you are solving an authentic, hard problem that creates lasting value.
Founders who know the problem inside out
We look for teams who have lived the friction firsthand. They understand customer constraints and know exactly why earlier solutions failed.
Something genuinely difficult to replicate
We favor companies whose core capability cannot be duplicated with capital alone—whether protected by proprietary tech, manufacturing depth, or certifications.
A real, urgent customer requirement
The product must solve a critical pain point. We want to see why customers cannot operate without your solution today.
Tangible evidence that the market cares
Validation can take many shapes: pilot programs, repeat purchase orders, technical qualification benchmarks, or customer prepayment.
Room to become meaningfully larger
We invest in companies riding multi-decade macro tailwinds—domestic supply security, industrialization, and global supply chain rebalancing.
Thoughtful use of capital
Capital should unlock concrete milestones. We back founders who know what they need to prove next and treat every rupee with respect.
