Early capital. Long-term partnership. Deep engagement.
Gokul first reached out in Jan 2024 as a happy customer on LinkedIn and soon became an integral partner in our early journey. It was refreshing to see a VC engage as a genuine product fan and simply say, “let’s chat.”
We got on a call and hit it off instantly. Over the next few months, he took the time to truly understand the business. Soon after, Veltis became our first institutional backer.
Gokul has a way of making you feel comfortable — “do what you think is best as a founder, we’ve got your back.” He has consistently shown up during critical moments and been a sounding board as we build.

Veltis makes early, independent investment bets. Not based on trends or who else is investing, but based on the founders and the fundamentals of the business.
We value Veltis’ unwavering support for Troovy. It’s refreshing to speak to their team, every time. They constantly help us discover new tools and vendors to improve business processes, make connections to ecosystem partners, and act as a sounding board for strategic decisions.
Another thing that strikes me about the Veltis team is their authenticity. They are fun people to know and hang out with.

Gokul has been one of the most helpful investors for SuperK. He takes the time to deeply understand the business and consistently returns with high signal feedback that sharpens our thinking and execution.
He has also been hands on in practical ways, opening doors with a top FMCG company, connecting us to a strong recruitment partner, and introducing us to multiple investors, helping build early momentum in our last fundraise.
Overall, Gokul behaves more like a partner than an investor, rolling up his sleeves to help founders think and execute better. Any founder would be lucky to have Veltis.

I learnt from Gokul and Veltis Capital that an Investor must be like a Founder’s best friend. I can openly discuss any confusion, obstacles, anxieties, or even share whatever happy news that comes my way as a founder building my startup.
Gokul listens calmly to my problems, helps me with solutions and give me the assurance that I’m not alone in the battlefield - that’s the best a founder can ever expect from his / her investor. I’ll always be a lifelong fan and family of Veltis Capital!

In my 13 years of startup career, I’ve never seen any VC move as fast as Gokul. We wrapped up a 90-min call at 12:30 pm, Gokul boarded a 3:30 pm flight from Mumbai to Delhi and visited our only store by evening. We had further conversations to know each other and soon the deal was done. That’s not just speed that’s genuine love for the role as an investor and unconditional belief in the category and sheer respect for the founders.
How can any founder say no to such a gem of a personality? To have such people early on our cap table is a dream come true; we feel blessed and grateful.

It has been a pleasure and privilege to have Veltis Capital as our investor. Veltis’ sense of purpose, business grounding and long-term perspective instils confidence to us in our journey.
Gokul goes above and beyond in helping us connect with relevant industry experts as well as sharing his acumen while evaluating business metrics.
We look forward to make this a long-term and mutually beneficial relationship.
