May 27, 2024  |  10 Min Read
Former BharatPe executive Suhail Sameer's OTP Ventures is raising $50 million in its first fund and is hoping to mark its first close at 40-50% by next month. The CapTable got hold of OTP Venture's pitch deck that shows the firm’s plans for its maiden venture.

Key Takeaways

  • BharatPe’s Suhail Sameer is hoping to mark the first close of OTP Ventures Fund I at 40-50% of the total $50 million corpus by June

  • OTP Ventures will be investing in early-stage companies and will be the first institutional cheques for startups
  • Besides investing early, Sameer also wants to exit early for better risk-adjusted returns

Nearly a decade ago, Suhail Sameer and his college friends Kunal Suri and Saurabh Vashishtha created a WhatsApp group to chat about what to do outside office hours. The trio, colleagues at consulting heavyweight McKinsey at the time, named the group OTP, short for 'Office Time Pass.'
