What She Capital does

She Capital is a New Delhi-based, SEBI-registered early-stage venture capital firm founded in 2018 by Anisha Singh (previously founder of MyDala), focused exclusively on backing women-led and women-centric startups in India. The firm operates two Category II Alternative Investment Funds — She Capital Fund (IN/AIF2/17-18/0525) managed by She Capital LLP, and SC Founders Fund (IN/AIF2/23-24/1382) managed by She Capital Venture Private Limited — and has deployed capital across 14 portfolio companies spanning D2C homeware, social commerce, transit retail, artisanal food, neuroscience AI, hair care, lingerie, edtech, sports, jewellery, metaverse, and hospitality training.

She Capital does not develop proprietary technology; its core product is venture capital allocation combined with a community platform built around its flagship annual 'Together' conference (now in its fourth edition, held in Goa) and a stated network of 10,000+ female founders, supported by a lean team of 8 professionals. Revenue follows conventional VC mechanics: management fees on committed fund capital plus carried interest from exits, with one material exit to date — portfolio company Clovia was acquired by Reliance Retail for Rs 950 crore.

The go-to-market model is community-led and event-driven: deal sourcing relies on direct outreach to early-stage female founders, the Together event series, and ecosystem partnerships with AWS, Google, HT Media Group, Shardul Amarchand Mangaldas, Kotak Private, Indifi Capital, and IDFC First Bank. Limited partners are not publicly disclosed, consistent with standard AIF confidentiality, and She Capital's customer base is bifurcated into portfolio companies (the invested-in entities) and the LPs funding the two AIF vehicles.
