Investor profile
Viansh Ventures (Poddar Family Office) is a Bangalore, India-based single-family office. Established in 2013, the firm invests and manages the wealth of the Poddar family, led by Vikas Poddar and Yash Poddar, whose fortune was primarily built through the scaling and eventual exit of Ashirvad Pipes, a global leader in CPVC manufacturing. The family office was formalized following the family's increased liquidity post-2018 exit and further institutionalized through the incorporation of Viansh Ventures as the primary investment vehicle.
