Mint Mumbai
|March 03, 2025
Junior VC (AJVC), a fund launched by former Venture Highway—now acquired by General Catalyst—executive Aviral Bhatnagar in August 2024, has been oversubscribed by investors and is likely to tap the greenshoe option.
Bhatnagar, who previously led investments in software-as-a-service, consumer and AI sectors at a VC firm until April last year, had launched the firm in August, aiming to raise a corpus of nearly ₹100 crore.
"We're oversubscribed and we are very actively considering exercising our green shoe option," Bhatnagar said.
