    SRF Capital Studio across India

    A decade of building alongside founders and operators, now working from four cities. Each one leads on the sectors and the capital its region actually has.

    What we do

    Strategy. Capital. Execution.

    Three disciplines that only compound when they are run together. Most firms sell one of them; we run all three under one roof, for the same company, at the same time.

    Forty-three capabilities, across the five things you can do with capital.

    Our latest thinking.

    Venture engagement

    We work with the people who back founders.

    Alongside our direct work, SRF runs engagement programmes for ecosystem partners and funds — including cohorts with the Wadhwani Foundation, where selected startups get a growth-sprint model rather than a one-off session.

    Cohort advisory
    Startups selected into a partner cohort get a growth-sprint engagement: a monthly call, a working agenda, and someone accountable for what moves between calls.
    Masterclasses and webinars
    Sessions run for a partner's portfolio on the things founders get wrong first — reporting, runway, and what an investor actually reads.
    Grants, schemes and public support
    The non-dilutive layer most portfolios under-use: what a company qualifies for, what it takes to apply, and whether it is worth the paperwork.
