This is a catchall company for the doers, the thinkers, and the innovators.

We partner with founders really early to help build startups that are building from India and building for India.

Lightbox is a Mumbai based venture capital firm. We invest in consumer businesses that are shaping how India consumes. Our portfolio comprises brands that have a deep understanding of consumer needs and a strong grasp of how to use technology to effectively meet these needs. We manage $400 million and have a portfolio of differentiated businesses with a cumulative value of $3 billion. Lightbox has a stellar track record building market leading companies. The team, led by Sandeep Murthy, has been investing in India since 2005, having backed 27 companies which include InMobi, Info Edge, Cleartrip, Rebel Foods, Bombay Shirt Company, Furlenco, Nua, Zeno Health and Cityflo. Lightbox follows an invest-and-build strategy which involves deep operational engagement to help scale our portfolio companies into sustainable businesses. We work closely with a few handpicked entrepreneurs who we believe are building unique solutions to organise India’s large, unorganised consumption markets. We make concentrated investments in business models with sizable ownership in each of these companies on the back of compelling macroeconomic shifts at play. This focused approach combined with deep operational knowledge, gained over the past 20 years of investing and operating, positions us to drive significant value accretion across our investments. In a world defined by change, the destination may be years away. Hence to navigate it, you need a partner who has seen these moments before. We partner with our companies beyond capital and walk this path alongside them.
