OTP Ventures

OTP Ventures is an India-focused early-stage venture firm led by operators-turned-investors Kunal Suri and Suhail Sameer. Suhail brings significant credibility in the Indian startup ecosystem as the former CEO of BharatPe, giving the firm a particularly sharp lens on FinTech, consumer internet, and high-growth B2B businesses. The partnership is built around the belief that the best support a VC can offer comes from having sat in the founder's seat. OTP Ventures writes cheques typically ranging from $500k to $5M across Seed, Pre-Series A, and Series A rounds, making it relevant for founders at the earliest meaningful institutional stages. The firm is sector-focused on SaaS, FinTech, Consumer, B2B, and AI, which maps well to where Indian technology entrepreneurship is most active today. Founders approaching OTP Ventures can expect investors who understand the operational realities of building in India, including distribution challenges, unit economics pressure, and the nuances of scaling across a complex market. If you are building a technology-first, scalable business and want investors who have navigated the Indian startup journey themselves, OTP Ventures is worth a direct conversation.
