Mahansaria Group
Mahansaria Group was founded in 1982 by Ashok Mahansaria and later joined by his son Yogesh. Their wealth originated in off-highway tyres, culminating in the 2016 sale of Alliance Tire Group. The family maintains operating control through Mahansaria Tyres Private Limited and Reise Mitas Tires LLP. The office allocates across direct co-investments, SPVs and fund-of-funds commitments. Asset classes include manufacturing, venture capital and real assets. Investment stages run from seed to Series B. Confirmed geographies cover Asia, Europe and North America. Operating subsidiaries such as Mahansaria Tyres execute manufacturing strategy while separate venture vehicles pursue technology exposure. Team size and total deployment remain undisclosed. The group maintains its headquarters in Mumbai with manufacturing facilities in Gujarat. Yogesh Mahansaria belongs to the Mumbai chapter of YPO. In March 2024 he discussed founder journeys in an interview with Mint. Philanthropic vehicles include the Lifeline Rotary Ashok Sushila Mahansaria Dialysis Centre. The structure ties investment decisions directly to the principals who continue to operate manufacturing businesses. This operating-company relationship supplies sourcing advantages and governance continuity that separate the office from pure financial vehicles.
