ChrysCapital elevates three partners
Homegrown private equity firm ChrysCapital has elevated three of its executives to senior partner roles, reinforcing its leadership bench amid rising deal activity.
“Sanjiv Kaul, Ashley Menezes, and Gaurav Ahuja have been elevated to Senior Partners at ChrysCapital. Each of them has played a vital role in shaping the firm’s evolution over many years,” Kunal Shroff, Managing Partner at the firm, said in a LinkedIn post.
The move comes as the firm continues to expand its portfolio and capitalise on a sustained uptick in investment activity across sectors.
While Kaul and Ahuja have been with ChrysCapital since 2004, Menezes joined the firm in 2000.
Last week, ChrysCapital promoted Sanjay Kukreja to managing partner.
ChrysCapital is currently investing out of its tenth fund that was closed at a corpus of $2.2 billion in November last year.
