    Feb 23 2026

    For our third episode, we are joined by Nikhil Choudhary, Founder & Partner at Nirman Ventures, a firm known for its operator-first lens and disciplined approach to investing.

    Joining him in conversation is Sriharsha Bandaluppi, Head of SIG Tattva. Together, they explore:

    • The Operator’s Edge — why operating experience shapes sharper investing
    • Venture capital across geographies — how India, US, and Europe truly differ
    • AI hype vs real conviction — separating signal from noise
    • Defensibility debate — agentic systems vs robotics-led approaches
    • India’s cap table problem and its long-term implications
    • Nirman’s investment thesis and approach to governance

    A grounded conversation on venture capital — focused less on momentum, and more on judgment, discipline, and building what lasts.

    Hosted by Team Tattva — because at Tattva, the pilot is the product.
