About this record
- ⚑ Growth-equity / late-stage fund, not an early-stage seed VC — better fit for scale-up than seed. Linked to the TVS family / Shriram group via the TVS Shriram Growth Fund, but the manager is a private SEBI-registered AIF (not a government or DFI vehicle). The lookalike domain 'tvscapitalfunds.com' is NOT the official site; the correct live official domain is tvscapital.in.
