Worst VCs in India

Who are some of the worst VCs in India? Here's my list:
Vaibhav Domkundwar: has NEVER responded to any email I sent to him
Prime Ventures: Same as above and also think they are God's gift to entrepreneurship (despite a meh portfolio)
Chiratae : Again very low on responsiveness and approachability
Lightbox VC: The absolute worst portfolio amongst all VC funds (and hence in the process of winding down)
Matrix Partners: Intellectually lazy / nepotistic / blindly fund repeat entrepreneurs without too much thought even if their ideas suck

Honorable mentions:
Lightspeed: Poor quality portfolio for a fund of their size
Peak XV: Far cry from being Sequoia quality (no wonder were kicked out from the parent). Have also heard grapevine stories of underhand dealings & kickbacks (though no first hand evidence of the same)
