What is your average cheque size?▼
Our initial commitment ranges from INR 50 L to 2 Cr, with follow-on reserves for the winners.

How can I pitch Powai Lake Ventures?▼
Shoot a short email (no decks) to coffee@powailakeventures.com covering team, market, problem, solution and edge. We reply when intrigued.
Do you lead rounds?▼
We prefer to co-invest with friendly funds, but occasionally lead if the fit is perfect.
