GrowthCap Ventures is an early-stage venture capital firm based in Mumbai. It describes itself as an operator-led, SEBI-registered Category II AIF backing pre-seed and seed founders in fintech, AI and deep tech. Its thesis page gives the target stage as Pre-Seed to Pre-Series A, and the geography as India.

In fintech it lists payments infrastructure, lending platforms, credit underwriting, banking-as-a-service, insurance technology, and financial data infrastructure. Under deep tech it lists climate technology, the EV ecosystem (battery analytics, charging, resale), AI/ML applications, and hardware-software integration plays. Under AI it lists AI for underserved industries, horizontal enterprise tools, supply chain intelligence, and compliance/regulatory technology. Its portfolio page names companies such as Spense, RePut.ai, TrusTerra, Navanc, Mylapay, Integra Robotics, LogiXair and Advance Mobility.

On what it looks for, the firm says it backs founders who have lived in the problem space, in large markets that are shifting for regulatory, technology or behavioural reasons. It says it does not require revenue, but wants evidence that customers care, such as LOIs, pilot engagement, waitlists or organic adoption signals, and a capital-efficient path to milestones. After investing it says it helps with hiring, go-to-market strategy and sales, fundraising preparation, and access to NBFC and banking partners. Its founder and general partner is Pratekk Agarwaal, who it describes as a former CBO at BharatPe.

To reach the firm, the site has a 'Pitch to Us' button that opens an online pitch form, and a general inbox, hello@growthcap.vc. The site does not state an intake window, deadline or response time, so treat it as a conventional investor conversation and not a grant or a cohort programme.
