Inflexor Ventures eyes first close of $150 Mn Fund III by Q2 FY26: Report Early-stage venture capital firm Inflexor Ventures is targeting the first close of its $150 million (Rs 1,250 crore) Fund III by the end of Q2 FY26. As per the ET report, the new fund will focus on emerging sectors such as healthcare devices, EV battery tech, and foundational large language models (LLMs), reflecting a pivot toward less crowded, high-tech verticals. Fund III will invest in 25–27 startups, largely at the pre-Series A to Series A stage, with average cheque sizes of $2.5–3 million for a ~15% stake. The firm’s current portfolio includes Atomberg, Bellatrix Aerospace, CredFlow, and Bioprime Agrisolutions. With this fund, Inflexor expects its total portfolio to cross 50 startups. Inflexor also announced the closure of its Rs 350 crore Opportunities Fund through the acquisition of its first fund’s portfolio (Parampara Capital), led by HDFC Asset Management Co., providing early liquidity to initial investors. Founded by Venkat Vallabhaneni, Jatin Desai, and Pratip Mazumdar, Inflexor Ventures has over $120 million AUM and has backed over 25 startups across deeptech, spacetech, cybersecurity, AI, and consumer tech.

Theia Ventures announces first close of maiden fund at $30 Mn Venture capital firm Theia Ventures has announced the first close of its maiden fund, securing $30 million (approx Rs 266.2 crore) toward its $30 million target. Theia will focus its Fund I investments on deeptech, energy transition, and decarbonisation, backing startups in areas like green mobility, sustainable materials, battery technologies, clean logistics, and industrial decarbonisation. To date, the firm has already locked in commitments exceeding 50% of the target. It is structured as a Category II Alternative Investment Fund (AIF) under SEBI regulations. Theia’s founders have also brought in British International Investment (BII) as an anchor investor, along with support from other global investors such as Allocator One (Germany), Cisco Foundation (US), and Vitality Capital Partners (Australia). Domestically, family offices and industrial groups including Anand Mahindra, Thermax’s Meher Pudumjee, JM Financial, Vimson Group, and Shivanand Salgaocar Group are backing Theia. The fund plans to make 18–20 early-stage investments, with individual cheque sizes typically between $500,000 to $1 million, and reserve roughly 50% of capital for follow-on rounds. Theia has already deployed capital in Sarla Aviation (aerospace) and Climitra Carbon (industrial biochar). It has also committed investments in startups working on precision fermentation and AI-based energy modeling. The final close is expected by the end of fiscal year 2026 (FY26).
