• ⚑ Rebrand/name-history: formerly "Sequoia Capital India & SEA" — spun off and rebranded to Peak XV Partners in June 2023 (independent of US Sequoia and China's HongShan). Private firm (not a govt/DFI/university vehicle); LPs are largely endowments and foundations. Operates regionally across India + Southeast Asia/APAC (US, Singapore and UAE offices in addition to India). Note: was a past investor in Byju's (now distressed) — that earlier portfolio name was removed from the curated list and replaced with the better-documented exit Pine Labs.
