EVERY DOCUMENT IS the outcome of a negotiation. In the world of venture capital (VC) funding, the character of this negotiation changes with cycles. After a year of the breakneck pace of investing, which saw a record $35 billion of investor money flowing into Indian companies, the start-up ecosystem is staring at a dry spell.

What has led to this shift? For that, a bit of history first. What we saw in the 24 months leading up to 2022 was a massive influx of capital into India due to excessive money in the global markets. Some of that capital ended up with large investment funds and big capital allocators globally, who have a share earmarked for alternative assets and emerging markets.

Consequently, a percentage of it came to India, the third largest start-up ecosystem in the world. For this emerging market, that number was significant.
