Client Associates
Client Associates was founded in 2002 by Rohit Sarin and Himanshu Kohli, both former private bankers. The firm operates as India's largest multi-family office by number of families served. It advises entrepreneurial families on integrated wealth management without product conflicts. The firm allocates across private equity, real estate, private credit and infrastructure. It maintains a direct co-investments program and runs an in-house alternate fund vehicle. Confirmed positions include Miraggio, where it led a Series A round in May 2025, and co-investments in Salad Days and WanderOn. Activity centers on India with additional reach into Middle East and Central Asia. Client Associates employs professionals across its Gurugram headquarters and regional offices. It maintains philanthropic ties through support for Ashoka University and Vidya School. In August 2025 Joseph Thomas joined as Managing Partner and Co-Chief Operating Officer to oversee operations, finance and technology. The firm combines a wealth-management mandate with an active investment-banking vertical. This structure allows it to source proprietary deals for client families while maintaining separation between advisory and proprietary capital.
