This paper presents new empirical evidence on the certification role of venture capital firms in India, an economy characterized by a high degree of information asymmetry. We first present a detailed description of venture capital activity in India between 2000 and 2012. We then analyze the post-issue operating performance of firms that underwent initial public offering (IPO) firms. Results indicate that Indian IPO firms underperform relative to industry medians in the first three years after going public. Finally, we compare operating performance between venture capital (VC) backed IPO firms and non-VC backed IPO firms. Results indicate that VC backed IPO firms are associated with higher growth rates in sales and capital expenditures and a better performance in operating cash flows but are less profitable than non-VC backed IPO firms.

“An incisive history of the venture-capital industry.” —New Yorker “An excellent and original economic history of venture capital.” —Tyler Cowen, Marginal Revolution “A detailed, fact-filled account of America’s most celebrated moneymen.” —New Republic “Extremely interesting, readable, and informative...Tom Nicholas tells you most everything you ever wanted to know about the history of venture capital, from the financing of the whaling industry to the present multibillion-dollar venture funds.” —Arthur Rock “In principle, venture capital is where the ordinarily conservative, cynical domain of big money touches dreamy, long-shot enterprise. In practice, it has become the distinguishing big-business engine of our time...[A] first-rate history.” —New Yorker VC tells the riveting story of how the venture capital industry arose from America’s longstanding identification with entrepreneurship and risk-taking. Whether the venture is a whaling voyage setting sail from New Bedford or the latest Silicon Valley startup, VC is a state of mind as much as a way of doing business, exemplified by an appetite for seeking extreme financial rewards, a tolerance for failure and experimentation, and a faith in the promise of innovation to generate new wealth. Tom Nicholas’s authoritative history takes us on a roller coaster of entrepreneurial successes and setbacks. It describes how iconic firms like Kleiner Perkins and Sequoia invested in Genentech and Apple even as it tells the larger story of VC’s birth and evolution, revealing along the way why venture capital is such a quintessentially American institution—one that has proven difficult to recreate elsewhere.
This book studies diverse categories of venture capital (VC) firms in India based on their ownership type (domestic vs foreign), stage of investment (early vs growth stage) and VC investment team composition (entrepreneurial experience vs investing experience). For each category of VC firms, the nuances in their investment, portfolio involvement and exit strategies are separately analysed. Employing the framework of information asymmetry, the book studies how different categories of VC firms rely on distinct mechanisms such as deal syndication and domain specialization to address the ensuing adverse selection and agency risks. It also delves into the macro context by assessing whether the emergence of VC in India has been driven by 'pull' or 'push' factors. This is accomplished by analysing in depth the supply and demand of VC funds. Finally, it critically reviews the existing policies of entrepreneurial finance and arrives at recommendations for future directions of the same.

This useful guide walks venture capitalists through the principles of finance and the financial models that underlie venture capital decisions. It presents a new unified treatment of investment decision making and mark-to-market valuation. The discussions of risk-return and cost-of-capital calculations have been updated with the latest information. The most current industry data is included to demonstrate large changes in venture capital investments since 1999. The coverage of the real-options methodology has also been streamlined and includes new connections to venture capital valuation. In addition, venture capitalists will find revised information on the reality-check valuation model to allow for greater flexibility in growth assumptions.
The Indian venture capital market, despite positive developments, is still riddled with a high level of uncertainty, as well as serious institutional voids. This presents a number of challenges to foreign venture capital firms seeking to invest in Indian start-ups. Along with acquiring information, a venture capitalist is required to find the right fit between its information requirements and information processing capacity. This paper standardises the decision-making process for venture capitalists in India by developing a decision-making framework. Subsequently, forecasted market insights were generated via an online Delphi study, using the projections derived from the decision-making framework. The results highlight the difficulties that venture capitalists encounter with regard to the institutional environment, as well as selecting investments under higher levels of uncertainty. In the course of evaluating the results and by consulting existing literature, syndication of investments emerged as a potential solution to the issues faced by foreign venture capitalists in India.

Experiences of other countries in managing venture capital operations are also explained in the book.
