RentoMojo's journey is a story of conviction in a business model that challenged traditional notions of ownership and helped establish India's rental economy. At the Chiratae Pride of India Awards 2026, we recognised RentoMojo with the Successful Exit Award, celebrating an important milestone in the company's journey and value creation for its investors. Today, through its technology-driven rental platform and expanding offline presence, RentoMojo continues to offer consumers greater flexibility, convenience and choice in how they furnish their homes. youtu.be/T_GxEhKEHEk #PrideOfIndiaAwards2026 #ChirataePortfolio @rentomojo @GeetanshBamania @venkypeddi @chandra444 @amanvoid @_TanviD

Quantum computing has moved beyond proving that it works. The next milestone is making it work at scale. At Chiratae Ventures, our investment conviction in Quanfluence rests on two beliefs: Photonics offers one of the most promising paths to scalable quantum computing, and India must build and own foundational quantum capabilities rather than depend on technology developed elsewhere. Founded by a team of semiconductor entrepreneurs and researchers, Bengaluru-based Quanfluence is building a photonic quantum computer designed to operate largely at room temperature. Aman Raj and Venkatesh Peddi share the technology, the opportunity and the conviction behind our investment. chiratae.com/investing-in-quโ€ฆ

Quanfluence has raised $10 million to push Indiaโ€™s photonic quantum computing ambitions forward. Led by @ChirataeVC, with participation from Rainmatter by Zerodha and existing investor Pi Ventures, the round will fund Quanfluenceโ€™s next quantum computing prototypes and technology development. Founded by Sujoy Chakravarty, Ravi Mehta, Biman Chattopadhyay, Anil Prabhakar, Aditi Vaidya and Sandeep Goyal, the Bengaluru startup is targeting a 100-qubit prototype by 2029, with applications across logistics, workforce planning, risk management and more. From room-temperature quantum systems to real-world optimisation, Indiaโ€™s quantum tech ecosystem is accelerating.

We're excited to lead Quanfluence's $10M round, alongside Rainmatter by Zerodha and existing investor pi Ventures. Sujoy Chakravarty and team are building a full-stack photonic quantum computer in India, from indigenously designed photonic chips to control electronics and software, with the long-term goal of a fault-tolerant, general-purpose quantum computer. The founding team brings rare depth across photonics, semiconductors and quantum research, the combination this problem demands. We believe Quanfluence can help strengthen Indiaโ€™s position in the global quantum computing landscape. @amanvoid @venkypeddi @_TanviD @Inc42 inc42.com/buzz/quanfluence-rโ€ฆ

20 years. Many companies. Thousands of conversations. And a belief that the right connections can shape what comes next. As Chiratae Spotlight 2026 draws closer, we look forward to bringing together our portfolio companies and the investor community for another day of discovery, conversations and connections. Over the last two decades, weโ€™ve had the privilege of backing audacious entrepreneurs across generations of technology and innovation. This week, we bring many of those journeys- and the ones still being written- together at Spotlight 2026. @amishdedhia @_TanviD @sudhirksethi @tcmsundaram youtube.com/watch?v=UQo_zQs2โ€ฆ

Super super proud of @rokrsa and the whole @tm2space team today as MOI-1a reaches orbit aboard the orbital transfer vehicle on @SpaceX. It gets deployed in the next few days, and from thereon it forever changes how space-data compute happens !! ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿš€@ranjith_menon @ChirataeVC
Genuinely big day for India's private space sector. SpaceX's Transporter 18 is carrying two Indian satellites and an Indian hosted payload into orbit, all authorised by IN-SPACe. Among them, @satleolabs TAPAS-1, India's first commercial thermal imaging payload built by a private company. Thermal sensing picks up what ordinary optical cameras cannot, from crop stress to forest fires to urban heat. A new layer of Earth intelligence, now opened up by Indian industry. Alongside it, @tm2space's MOI-1A brings AI computing to orbit, running models on the satellite itself, and @DhruvaSpace's LEAP-2 flies four payloads, demonstrating its platform for hosting others in space. Orbital computing, thermal intelligence, and a homegrown hosting platform, all on a single flight. This is the range and ambition of India's private space ecosystem today. Congratulations to all three teams. Wishing you a clean deployment and a long innings in orbit. @isro @INSPACeIND @PMOIndia
