About PrivateCircle

Reimagining Private Markets
With Data

Since 2015, we've been building India's most comprehensive private market intelligence platform — trusted by 300+ top institutional funds, lenders and corporates.

Our Mission

Making private market data accessible, reliable and actionable

India's private market is vast — with millions of companies, thousands of funds and a rapidly evolving regulatory landscape. Yet reliable, structured data has remained scarce and fragmented.

We set out to change that. PrivateCircle aggregates data from 100% credible government sources — MCA, stock exchanges, GST, EPFO, RoC, NCLT, IBBI, ITAT and more — to deliver intelligence that professionals can trust without revalidation.

2.6M+ MCA Companies Covered
4L+ HNIs & Directors
3,000+ Funds Tracked
5L+ Transactions Mapped
300+ Institutional Clients
500+ Data Dimensions
Our Story

From a gap in the market to India's leading platform

Founded in 2015 in Bengaluru, PrivateCircle started with a simple observation: India's private market was growing rapidly, but the data infrastructure to support it simply didn't exist.

We began by mapping MCA filings and building structured company profiles. Over the years, we expanded into fund tracking, transaction intelligence, compliance monitoring and contact databases — becoming the trusted source for professionals who need to make decisions on Indian private companies.

Today, our platform serves 300+ institutional clients — from top-tier VC/PE funds and investment banks to corporates, banks and consulting firms — all relying on PrivateCircle to power their research, diligence and deal flow.
