Pratithi Investments

Kris Gopalakrishnan co-founded Infosys in 1981. He launched Pratithi Investments in 2015 as the dedicated vehicle for his family’s private capital. The office sits alongside separate entities that handle real-estate holdings and philanthropic programs. Pratithi commits to venture and private-equity funds across stages and makes direct investments in growth companies. It favors late-stage debt and equity alongside selected seed and Series A positions. Confirmed holdings include more than one hundred Indian startups. The portfolio spans PropTech, AgriTech & FoodTech, Digital Health, Mobility & Transportation, and Industrial Tech. Activity remains centered in India with limited exposure elsewhere in Asia. The firm co-invests with institutional partners and maintains LP commitments in external funds. KC Ganesh serves as President. Sheeba D’Mello and Saumya Jain manage the private-equity and direct-investment books. The team also includes a compliance officer and finance staff. Adjacent vehicles include the SGK Trust for real-estate assets and Pratiksha for scientific-research grants. No new operational announcements have appeared in the last twenty-four months. Pratithi operates through Prayog Advisors LLP, the registered investment manager of its Category II AIF. This structure separates investment activity from the family’s philanthropic vehicles and real-estate holdings, allowing distinct governance and regulatory treatment for each pool of capital.
