About WestBridge Capital
WestBridge was founded in October 2000 and says it has invested for more than twenty years. Sumir Chadha and Sandeep Singhal are listed as co-founders and managing partners, and Rishit Desai is a partner. The firm reports $7.3 billion in assets under management as of December 2025 and a portfolio of more than 150 companies across private and public markets. Directories list offices in Silicon Valley, Bangalore and Mauritius. Other investors with similar names, including a London buyout firm and a San Mateo growth firm, are separate entities.
WestBridge describes its AI focus as vertical AI systems, AI-native infrastructure and agentic AI, across India and the US. Its portfolio page lists UnifyApps, an enterprise AI agent builder, and Yoodli, an AI communication and roleplay platform for sales and learning teams, both in 2025 Series B rounds. It also lists NextHop AI, which makes Ethernet switches for AI workloads, as a 2025 Series A investment. Its evergreen structure means it can hold companies for long periods, which its profile puts at five to 25 years.
The firm's site describes its investing as starting at Series A and continuing to IPO. A fund profile on f4.fund lists Series A, Series B, Series C and Growth, with checks of $10M to $500M. A separate investor directory gives a typical range of $10M to $80M, so figures differ by source. Its portfolio also includes two sector-agnostic pre-seed funds, Zeropearl and AJVC, which back Indian consumer, SaaS and AI startups.
