Corpus (as reported)
~US$53M cumulative AUM across 3 funds, reported as valued at ~US$1.2bn (May 2025, per firm/indexed official site). Fund I (Angel Fund, 2012): ~INR 90 cr / ~US$14M; Fund II (2017, final close Jan 2020): ~INR 215 cr / ~US$30M; Fund III (Innovative Products VC Fund III, anchored by NIIF): ~US$69-75M target, with US$15M from NIIF. NOTE: the original record's "US$153M cumulative AUM" is INCORRECT — official sources consistently state US$53M cumulative; even the per-fund sum (~US$113M) does not support US$153M.

About this record

  • Manager is PRIVATE (YourNest Capital Advisors Pvt Ltd, CIN ...PTC... = Private Limited). PUBLIC/DFI LINKAGE AT LP LEVEL ONLY: Fund III has India's sovereign fund NIIF (National Investment & Infrastructure Fund) as anchor LP (US$15M via its Fund of Funds) — limited-partner level only, not in the manager's ownership; does not make the firm a government investor. HQ is in Gurugram, Haryana (OUTSIDE UP). AUM ERROR CORRECTED: original "US$153M" was wrong; official figure is ~US$53M cumulative. Email caution: a personal-style address ([contact on file]) appears only on third-party registry/scraper sites (ZaubaCorp, RocketReach, etc.) and is NOT used — only [contact on file] (ESG/portfolio inbox) and [contact on file] (general) are published on the official contact page.
