Testimonial

JSW Ventures has been an investor in Purplle since 2016. Last 5 years of partnership with Gaurav and Kunal have been immensely fulfilling. Apart from the capital, we have been able to use their services for fund raise - both external and internal, PR for Purplle, recruitment for Purplle and in general for personal development.

The best part of the relationship is that you can rely end-to-end for things they own and hence they act as the extended team of the founders. While they are custodians of the capital they deploy and fulfill their duties towards their LPs, they are truly "Founder First" and "Company First". In my opinion, JSW Ventures has an exceptional leadership team with high degree of empathy, IQ, diligence and ownership. I look forward to the next 5 years and hope to get the same support like they have extended in the first 5 years.
