Chief Investment Officer
Leads Altirra's investment strategy and portfolio construction across India and Southeast Asia.
Early-stage venture capital · India & Southeast Asia
Altirra partners with relentless founders across India and Southeast Asia at the earliest stages — writing the first institutional cheque and staying close through the messy, magical years that follow.
India and Southeast Asia are no longer markets to be discounted. They are launchpads. Deep talent, billions of newly-connected consumers, and a generation of operators who have seen scale up close are converging into a once-in-a-generation window.
We invest with conviction, not consensus. We come in early, concentrate, and roll up our sleeves — because the difference between a good company and a generational one is made in the first 1,000 days.
Where we invest
Portfolio
Founders across India and Southeast Asia. We lead and co-lead at Seed and Pre-Series A. Select any company to read more.
How we partner
We keep our portfolio deliberately small so every founder gets the bandwidth they deserve. When you take our cheque, you get the whole firm.
We move fast and decide with clarity. No committees of strangers, no months of limbo — a clear yes or a clear no, usually within two weeks.
Your first ten hires define the company. We open our network of operators, engineers and leaders to help you land the people who change everything.
From first customers to enterprise motion, we plug you into the design partners, distribution and pricing playbooks that compress your learning curve.
We craft the narrative, warm the intros and stand beside you in the room — so your Series A is a formality, not a fire drill.
