About

Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
Operator Investor | Helping Seed to Series A+ Founders build Companies that Scale, not just Raise | CEO @ IncrementumX | Co-host, Building in India

I have spent the last 20+ years building businesses, helping companies grow, and working alongside founders through the highs and lows of scaling. Over the years, I've worked across India, Southeast Asia, Japan, and Europe in operating, business building, GTM, partnerships, and growth leadership. Every company, market, and founder taught me something different, but one thing has stayed constant: growth is never just about strategy. It's about execution. Today, I lead IncrementumX, where we help companies scale through better GTM, partnerships, people, and execution. I also work as an Operator Investor with Seed to Pre-Series A startups. I prefer getting involved early, when founders have built something promising and are looking for the right partner to help them grow. My role goes beyond investing, and I enjoy working closely with founders on GTM, market expansion, hiring, partnerships, and solving the challenges that come with building a business. I'm also the co-host of Building in India, where we have honest conversations with founders, operators, and investors about what it really takes to build great companies from India. If you're building a company and looking for an operator who has been through the journey, let's connect. ✓ Operator Investor for Seed to Pre-Series A startups ✓ Growth, GTM & Business Scaling across global markets ✓ CEO, IncrementumX ✓ Co-host, Building in India Podcast ✓ Angel Investor & Advisor to startups and growth-stage companies ✓ INSEAD MBA | B.Tech, CUSAT ✓ Experience across India, Southeast Asia, Japan & Europe Interests: Building companies • People • Reading • Travel • Golf • Sports If you’re a founder and you’re serious about building something meaningful (and scalable), we’ll get along.
