VENTURE CAPITAL
 The provision of funding for a start-up. For example, suppose a company with little access to
capital is attempting to open a new market or access an old one with a better product. It
may not be able to receive loans, either because of an unproven track record or because it
is already significantly in debt, and it may have exhausted financing from family and friends.
Venture capital allows this company to begin and build upon its operations by providing
necessary funding. Usually, the provider of venture capital takes equity in the company in
exchange for the money. Venture capital firms may also provide needed expertise in how to
run a business than can help the start-up become successful.

PIRAMAL GROUP
 The family office of Ajay Piramal is stepping into venture capital investing
to get a slice of the fast-growing entrepreneurial ecosystem in the country.
Known as being one of the savviest value investors in India Inc, Piramal is
backing the newly floated Montane Ventures, an early-stage fund, as its
anchor investor, a first such move by an Indian business conglomerate.
 Piramal's family office, sources said, is ploughing as much as $50 million
into Montane Ventures, which plans to raise up to $150 million with
participation from external investors, going forward. The Piramal group,
however, did not disclose how much the family office has invested in the
fund.
 Celebrated as an ace dealmaker, having reaped windfall gains by selling
stake in telecoms major Vodafone, Piramal, whose diversified group has
interests across pharmaceutical, finance and private equity, would stand
out as one of the first Indian business leaders to propel a pure-play
venture capital fund.

MICRO VENTURE CAPITAL (MICRO VC)
• Micro venture capital is money invested to seed early-stage emerging companies with
amounts of finance that is typically less than that of traditional venture capital. In contrast
to traditional venture capital which is money used to invest in companies looking to fund
growth (also referred to as a Series A round of funding), micro venture capital consists of
smaller seed investments, typically between 50 lacs to 1.5Cr., in companies that have yet
to gain traction. In India the number of micro venture capital firms have continued to rise
rapidly over the last 5/6 years, and have become an important source of finance for start-
up companies.
• Characteristics Of Micro VC’s
A. Initial investment at the seed stage
B. Investment on behalf of 3rd party Limited Partners
C. Most commonly have fund sizes that are less than around 100 Cr.
• Most micro venture capital firms pursue start-ups that are at their seed stage because of
their lower initial cost basis. Though there is a high probability that the majority of these
start-ups will not survive long enough to reach a Series-A round of funding, micro venture
capital firms are willing to make the investment because start-ups generally do not require
large sums of capital to bring a product to market, and because they believe that it
requires only a few successful companies for them to see profitable returns.
• Normally big VC funds have very small investing teams & that limit the domain knowledge. In
early stage you need to know wide range of domain expertise.
• Normally such investments are less than a VC investment but more than a wealthy individuals
or angel funds.
Example : Kroc Flint & Candler launched 100 Cr. Fund & have invested in 2/30 start-ups where
the investment was ranging from 0.7 Cr. To 1.5Cr.
• The Micro VC help companies grow their ideas into viable business models
• The risk is high but if the bet goes well then returns are really very rich. 20 to 30 times the
investment.
Example : Utilis, Unicorn ventures & Endiya partners meet the crucial needs of the companies
making the first institutional investment in a start-up just about when it figures out that the
product is market fit.
• Presently there are 12 Micro VCs are operating in India. These Micro VC’s keep the flow alive
which allows the bigger players like SAIF partners etc. to invest in Series-A deals in matured
start-ups.
• The big players have also started to form Micro VC’s with an idea of scooping up a huge &
successful start-up.
• Professional from VC funds have started quitting their jobs & are showing inclination towards
micro VC’s
• Challenges
1. Such investor will face fewer Series-A deals as the same will go to bigger VC’s & the
important deals will never come to Micro VC’s.
2. Most of Micro VC’s are equipped with professionals & who neither have entrepreneurial
background nor thorough understanding of how VC works.
