Sanjeev Bikhchandani - the man who made the most successful investment in Indian startup history Sanjeev Bikhchandani is the founder of Infoedge and has been one of the boldest investor in Indian startup ecosystem Snajeev first invested in Zomato back in 2010 and has since put in around $17.5 million, which is today worth around $3.7 billion giving a return of 217x on investment Sanjeev has also bet on another company Policy bazaar a company he has back since 2007. His investment of $69 million is now worth $1.02 billion His mantra turns out to be "Patience". A typical VC firm has a fund cycle of 10 years which means they have to exist before that but the Indian market takes longer period to give big returns almost 15 years in these two cases Because of this reason other VC firms like Sequoia and softbank existed Zomato soon after its IPO and could not make big returns Thank You
