- Sasha Mirchandani: Managing Director and Founder
Vidushi Kamani: Operating PartnerPast Role: Kae Capital, Venture Partner
Kae Capital is India's pioneering early-stage venture capital firm, founded in 2012 by Sasha Mirchandani in Mumbai. Kae is typically the first institutional capital into a company, writing cheques of $1M–$3M at the pre-seed to pre-Series A stage.
Over 12 years and four funds, Kae has backed 90+ companies including three unicorns (Porter,
Zetwerk, InMobi), two IPOs (Fractal Analytics, Nazara Technologies). Combined portfolio value exceeds $7.7 billion, with $2B+ in follow-on capital catalyzed.
Kae's investment thesis focuses on sectors that global and mainstream Indian VCs systematically undervalue: India's commerce infrastructure (SMBs, B2B supply chains, kirana networks), manufacturing and industrialization, trust and verification rails for India's informal economy, AI applied to Indian business contexts, and fintech reaching semi-urban and rural India.
