About 3one4 Capital

3one4 Capital is an Indian venture capital firm that partners with early-stage companies. Its site describes it as transformative capital for the new Indian economy, aimed at mission-oriented companies that set new standards for inclusive value creation and sustainable growth. Its funds are registered as Category I alternative investment funds of the venture capital type. This is an investor, not a grant or an incubator, so there is no application window or fixed programme to join.

What it invests in

The firm names five focus areas. SaaS covers new frameworks and automated workflows that help with decisions and productivity. Consumer internet is about reaching young, digitally native consumers directly. Fintech is about helping people earn, spend, save and grow wealth with accessible products. Digital health covers health technology that delivers outcomes digitally to a wide base of users in India. Enterprise and SMB digitisation is about automating workflows for businesses going digital. Its portfolio page lists entry stages such as Seed, Pre Series A, Series A and Series B, with Seed the most common.

How the firm works with founders

The site says it works from the first cheque to IPO, with in-house finance, research, platform, governance and business integrity, and growth and capital development teams. It describes a deep-involvement model in which it helps founders remove constraints on the path to market leadership. The home page reports 5 unicorns in the portfolio, and the portfolio page names companies such as Licious, Darwinbox, Scimplify, Jupiter, Dozee, Eka.Care, Fasal, Exponent Energy and Raise, some active and some exited.

Platform and events for portfolio founders

The firm runs a perks platform for its portfolio, with credits and discounts from partners including AWS, HubSpot and Google, reached through a founder login. That platform is for companies it has invested in, not for outside applicants. It also runs sessions such as The Record, a video series with industry leaders, Closed Circuit, a community for leaders, and an annual Founders Conclave. The 3one4 Summit has been held in 2022, 2024, 2025 and 2026 according to its pages.

How to approach it

The home page and portfolio page carry a Pitch To Us button that opens an online form. The contact page also has a form that asks for the founder count, company name, industry, website, a video link, team size, location, a short description and an optional pitch deck upload. The contact page marks that form as for general queries only. The site states no minimum traction, no cheque size and no response time, so treat a pitch as a cold approach to an investor.

Who runs it

The site lists Pranav Pai and Siddarth Pai as Founding Partners and Anurag Ramdasan as a Partner, with a team of directors, principals and vice presidents. The firm is described elsewhere in the candidate record as based in Bengaluru, and the site publishes no street address on the pages we read. It also publishes research reports on the Indian economy and the Bengaluru startup ecosystem.
