Investments for a better future
We seek to create value through thoughtful, long-term investments
​
“Taking a long-term lens and playing a game with a different time horizon than others, and with patience, is a competitive advantage.”
Anantya Capital is a Family Office focused on partnering with businesses for the long-term. When we back companies, we don’t base our decision on timing or likelihood of a potential exit. On the contrary, we think of ourselves as “hold-to-maturity” investors. Anantya means Infinite and Endless in Sanskrit, and this defines the nature of our commitment to the enterprises we back.

We partner for the Long Term
Enterprises realize their true potential over the long-term, spanning a few business cycles most of the times. We are a constant partner in that build out.
Get to Know Us
We are a Family Office that concentrates on identifying and investing in small to mid-sized companies that are leaders in their respective niches. We look at a mix of control and minority transactions with orientation as business owners or partners. We are broadly sector agnostic and evaluate all fundamentally strong capital efficient businesses which we believe can be long-term market leaders in their respective industries. Some of the sectors we particularly like are Consumption, Pharma & Healthcare, Technology, Financial Services and Specialized Manufacturing. We also invest in startups in the 3D Printing and SaaS (Software as a service) spaces.
Anantya Capital is backed by the Ved Family and the fund is principally managed by Saurabh Ved, who has a rich and extensive experience of over 15 years across industries.

We embrace the value investment principles of Benjamin Graham, Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. We aim to achieve superior returns by being long-term owners of high quality companies with substantial “economic moat”, great growth potential, and run by trust-worthy people. Some of our holdings date back to twenty years ago.

OUR INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY
We Think Long Term. Always Long Term.
We manage a pool of very long-term patient capital and look to partner entrepreneurs and own businesses matching our mindset of long-term compounding of capital. Accordingly, our core criteria of investing in businesses is centered around long- term growth potential of businesses.
We Are Driven By Fundamentals
We get excited by meeting passionate entrepreneurs and evaluating interesting businesses, but we get convinced only by fundamental strength of businesses, irrespective of the noise around a certain business or industry. This is especially true in current times where momentum behind a certain trend can be the chief investment driver; for us the key investment driver continues to be underlying economics.
We Engage Deeply
We engage with our entrepreneur partners deeply on various aspects of business. Specifically, we work as part of extended corporate team of portfolio companies on areas of strategic planning, business development and fund-raising/M&A. We aim to keep the number of active investments to a low number to ensure optimum allocation of our bandwidth to portfolio companies. We aim to do value addition in portfolio companies by being “passively active”.
We Are Diverse
We invest across sectors and evolution stages. Our portfolio includes early-stage growth-focused companies, pre-IPO companies, and listed companies. We complete thorough research and leverage our extensive market knowledge to identify companies with significant growth potential.
