Anish Maheshwari, VSURE Investment Affairs ke MD aur CEO, 14 Sep 2026 ko Mint journalist Nishant Kumar ne interview kiya. Conversation mein six themes cover hue jinmein VSURE long-term potential dekhta hai: AI aur data infrastructure, manufacturing, healthcare, logistics aur supply chains, fintech, aur technology-enabled traditional businesses.
Maheshwari ne insist kiya ki technology alone moat nahi hota — real value commercial application, defensible economics aur execution at scale mein hai. VSURE ka Anvex AI portfolio company 45X return de chuka hai, portfolio valuation ₹300 crore cross kar chuki hai.
Usne fundability ko four pillars pe define kiya: credible numbers, scalable economics, governance discipline, aur har rupee capital kaise value create karega yeh clarity. Capital requirement starts a conversation. Capital readiness earns investor conviction, Maheshwari ne kaha.

Firm targeting hai ₹500 crore+ capital facilitation, 12+ strategic investments aur 10 SME IPO mandates annually — Singapore, Dubai, Bahrain aur GCC corridors mein expansion.

Maheshwari says VSURE sees substantial long-term potential across six themes: AI and data infrastructure, manufacturing, healthcare, logistics and supply chains, fintech, and technology-enabled traditional businesses.
India does not have a shortage of businesses or capital; the real gap is capital readiness. Across VSURE's work with 40+ startups and SMEs, promising businesses struggle to raise because financial architecture, governance, valuation logic or capital deployment plan is not institutional-grade.
Maheshwari defines fundability as four things: credible numbers, scalable economics, governance discipline, and clarity on how every rupee of capital will create value. 'Capital requirement starts a conversation. Capital readiness earns investor conviction.'
Anvex AI has delivered VSURE's highest stated investment return at 45X; portfolio valuation exposure has crossed ₹300 crore across 40+ startups and SMEs; Hurrey Tech valuation ₹1,000+ crore, Hoora Technologies ₹200+ crore.
Anish Maheshwari served as CFO of Navkar Corporation from 2007 to August 2023 (16 years 8 months), raised ₹2,500 crore on group level, and executed the ₹1,050 crore sale of Navkar's Vapi unit to Adani Ports before founding VSURE in August 2023.
