About
Kio Cap
Kio Cap invests Indian capital in the world's leading companies, in US dollars. Its first fund, Kio Growth, is regulated by IFSCA in GIFT City.



We invest for Indian families, founders and companies in the companies we believe will lead the next decade — most of them listed in the United States.
Kio Growth is registered with IFSCA as Artha Bharat Multi Asset Global Capital Fund, a Category III AIF (IFSC/AIF3/2026-27/0406). Its GIFT City feeder invests through a Mauritius master fund, so tax arises at fund level, not on each trade.
The fund operates on the Artha Bharat platform. Choice Group is the lead anchor investor. Cyril Amarchand Mangaldas, Deloitte and PwC are counsel, auditor and tax adviser.
Karan Sood, Investment Director, spent a decade on Wall Street at Citi, UBS and GE Ventures. Offices in Bengaluru, GIFT City and New York.
Meet the people

Our purpose is to give Indian families a regulated, dollar-denominated route to the companies we believe will lead the next decade — and the patience to hold them.
