A named accredited-investor fund with a stated public-equity launch mandate
Nimida Capital describes itself as the global investment office of Shruti Shibulal and Gaurav Manchanda. A separate company-authored launch announcement identifies Nimida Growth AIF I as a Large Value Category III open-ended Alternative Investment Fund for Accredited Investors and names Nimida Capital Private Limited as its manager. This is a specific accredited-investor fund-management route alongside the wider principal-office context.
The retained announcement is displayed as “1 year ago” without an exact publication date. It reports SEBI approval of the launch and says the initial mandate is public equities, with an intention to broaden over time into private equities, debt instruments and fund-of-fund strategies. These are attributed historical launch and strategy statements, not an independent regulator check, proof that every proposed strategy is now implemented, or a guarantee that subscriptions are currently accepted.
The named fund, Nimida Capital Private Limited as manager, its sponsors and the wider investment office have distinct responsibilities. Obtain the current governing documents and confirm the legal counterparty, applicable accredited-investor requirements and any large-value-fund conditions for the actual investor. The category and open-ended label do not establish current eligibility or unrestricted liquidity.
The company describes a sector-agnostic approach based on market opportunity, valuation discipline, management quality and business execution. It says portfolio construction considers diversification across geographies, sectors and stages and aims for low correlations and lower volatility. These are stated process objectives, not guarantees that positions will diversify in a stressed market, preserve capital or deliver a particular return.
The overview gives the office an asset base of US$1 billion. The retained pages do not define its measurement date or distinguish family assets, gross exposures, fund assets and discretionary third-party AUM. The figure therefore does not establish current assets in Nimida Growth AIF I or an audited fund size. Likewise, earlier portfolio amounts in a professional's biography are career context, not assets managed by Nimida.
No current minimum subscription, management fee, performance fee, hurdle, expenses, leverage limits, valuation timetable or accepted-investor schedule is established in this subset. The open-end description does not establish daily dealing, immediate redemption, a notice period, gates, suspension rights or an exit-charge schedule. Obtain the current PPM, subscription agreement and written dealing terms before relying on any liquidity assumption.
Ask who can invest, which residency and legal-entity conditions apply, whether new subscriptions are open, how capital is valued and reported, and how conflicts and related-party exposures are addressed. For a Category III strategy, assess the actual instruments and leverage permissions, concentration, market and counterparty risk, liquidity mismatch and potential losses rather than assuming the category determines the portfolio.
The team page labels Aeka Advisors as Tax Advisor, Bombay Law Chambers as Legal Advisor, Kotak Mahindra Bank as Custodian and KPFS under Compliance. These are the website's named service-provider descriptions, not independently verified appointments for every entity or the current fund, nor endorsements of the products. Confirm the parties and responsibilities in the governing documents.
The own undated team page names Vinayan Nambiar as Chief Investment Officer and Vinod Joseph and Shyam Madhusoodanan as Principals. The overview identifies Shruti Shibulal and Gaurav Manchanda as fund sponsors, separately stating her Tamara and philanthropic capacities and his Nimida Group role. A sponsor is not automatically an employee or the legal investment manager, and the Nimida Group's other operating ventures are not all the same fund counterparty.
The existing professional record reports Shyam Madhusoodanan as Principal - Investments at Nimida Capital from July 2025 and retains his earlier Vice President - Investments role at Landmark Family Investment Office from May 2018 to June 2025. The own page's shorter Principal label and that reported career are separately qualified; no appointment date or exclusive-employment certificate is inferred from the listing.
No registered office, subscription email, telephone, dedicated grievance desk or service response deadline is established in the retained sources. The team page's corporate LinkedIn link is a company route, not a personal profile for each named professional. Confirm secure document handling and the appropriate investor contact before sending financial information.
No. It is the office's self-reported asset-base figure without a clear date or accounting definition.
No dealing or redemption schedule is established here. Current documents must specify the relevant conditions.
No. Verify the fund, manager, sponsor and service-provider roles separately.
The additional company-authored fund launch announcement supplies the accredited-investor audience, named manager and initial strategy. Its retained relative publication label does not establish a precise date or present subscription availability.
