Peak XV Secures $1.3B for Top India, APAC Founders
Peak XV Partners announced today the closing of $1.3 billion in new capital across its India Seed, India Venture, and APAC funds. With substantial uninvested capital still in its existing Growth fund, the firm is set to partner with standout founders building game-changing companies from early stages right through
to IPOs and beyond, spanning India, APAC, and further afield.This move signals strong ongoing trust from Peak XV's global Limited Partners, including major endowments and foundations. It highlights their long-term faith in the region's vibrant founder ecosystem. The team at Peak XV remains one of the largest investors in its own funds, ensuring tight alignment with both founders and LPs. Focus stays on core areas like AI, FinTech, and Consumer, while branching into emerging fields such as DeepTech.
“We are immensely grateful for the steadfast commitment from our Limited Partners. We recognize that every fundraise represents a responsibility to both our LPs and to the founder ecosystem, and we remain deeply committed to serving them,” said Shailendra Singh, Managing Director, Peak XV.
It's a thrilling era for tech innovation in India and APAC right now. The massive opportunities, deep talent pools, and rising global ambitions of founders make this one of the most exciting times yet. Peak XV stands ready to team up with those blending vision, grit, and sharp execution to create lasting companies.
“This is an extraordinary time for technology innovation across India and APAC. The scale of opportunity, depth of talent, and growing global ambition among founders makes this one of the most exciting periods we have seen. We are here to partner with founders who combine vision, resilience and execution as they build enduring companies,” Singh added.
For two decades, Peak XV—formerly Sequoia Capital India & SEA—has stuck to its mission of supporting founders who redefine industries and serve customers at massive scale. Over 20 years, they've managed over $10 billion across 16 funds, investing in more than 450 companies. Their portfolio boasts over 35 IPOs and numerous big M&As already.
These fresh funds supercharge Peak XV's firepower in a market where funding has been cautious lately. It's a huge lift for India's startup scene, especially in hot sectors like AI and FinTech. With a large, battle-tested team, they're primed to spot and back winners. This isn't just cash—it's a committed partnership for the long haul.
Experts see this as one of the year's biggest VC moves in APAC. It opens doors for smaller founders too. Peak XV's track record includes giants like Flipkart and Byju's. Expect breakthroughs ahead in DeepTech, from quantum to biotech. Check www.peakxv.com for more details.
