8 angel networks in Delhi. An angel network is a group of individual investors who screen startups together and invest alongside each other, which makes it a way to meet many angels through one application. Look at how each network sources deals, how often it meets, and whether you apply through a form or need an introduction.

Delhi Angels
Delhi angel investment network for early-stage startups. Apply through its online form; the process runs from evaluation to due diligence.
An angel network brings individual investors together to review startups as a group. You apply once and may be seen by many angels, which is far less work than approaching each person. The investors usually decide individually whether to put money in, so a good pitch to the network does not guarantee a round, and a round can come together in parts.
Networks differ in how they work. Some hold regular pitch sessions and publish a calendar, some screen applications for a time and then invite a few teams to present, and some take only warm introductions. Some charge founders nothing, some charge a fee for the screening, and some invest through a pooled vehicle. Read how each network in Delhi describes its process before you apply.
Angels bring more than money when they are a good fit: sector experience, customers and introductions to later investors. When you meet a network, find out who the active members are, what they have invested in before, and how they behave after investing.
We list 8 angel networks in Delhi, out of 221 startup support organisations we list there. The count updates as profiles are added and verified.
Start from the profile of each one: confirm it backs your stage and sector, find how it takes pitches (an online form, a named contact or a warm introduction), and send a short note with what you build, who it is for and what you have achieved so far. A focused note to a few good-fit investors does more than a mass mail to all of them.
Practice differs by network. Some take no fee, some charge for screening or for a pitch slot, and some earn from the investors. The terms are set by each network and should be on its own page, so confirm them before you apply.
