Backing Bharat’s Next Chapter - Launch of Hegdinvst

Hegd Investment Management Private Limited (“Hegdinvst”) officially launches today with a bold mission: to back Bharat’s resilient entrepreneurs who are building real, scalable businesses and shaping India’s growth story beyond the spotlight of hype-driven investing.

Founded by Aditya Bhandari, Hegdinvst was born out of a simple belief - that India’s future will be written by founders solving real problems for real people. By combining sharp financial discipline with a strong ESG commitment, Hegdinvst seeks to partner with such founders, helping them scale sustainably while generating long-term value for investors.

The firm’s headquarters in Chennai reflects this vision. Built inside a one-of-its-kind green corporate office, Hegdinvst signals its intent to lead by example on sustainability and responsible investing.

 “We see a generational opportunity in Bharat’s founders who are building resilient businesses outside of the spotlight. Hegdinvst is committed to supporting such entrepreneurs, institutionalizing their growth journey, and generating long-term value for investors.” said Aditya Bhandari, Founder & Managing Partner.

The launch comes at an inflection point for India’s private equity ecosystem, where investors are increasingly seeking transparent managers with proven conviction and long-term focus. Hegdinvst positions itself at the crossroads of capital, sustainability, and nation-building.

Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas & Co are our legal advisors.
