About this record

⚑ Name/entity nuance: "Info Edge Ventures" (Temasek-backed early-stage AIF fund) is distinct from Info Edge (India) Ltd's own balance-sheet strategic investments (Zomato, Policybazaar) and from Redstart Labs (Info Edge's wholly-owned AI/deeptech/SaaS arm) — aggregators like Tracxn conflate these, so portfolio/founding-year (2008 vs 2019) and AUM figures vary by source. Corporate-backed (CVC) but PRIVATE; not a government/DFI/university vehicle. HQ in India (Gurugram, Haryana). Founding year reported inconsistently (2008/2019/2020 across entities); official site states 2019. Email domain (.com) differs from website domain (.in) but the email is published on the firm's own official site, so it is legitimate. Otherwise clean.
