Narayanan (Nari)
Founding Partner · CA, ICWA, B.Com
Our founder
Built from inside the industry
Narayanan (Nari) spent nearly a decade as Finance Controller at Sequoia India (2008 to 2017), and earlier at Infosys (2000 to 2008). Across those years he saw how much of a fund's success rests on the unglamorous work behind the scenes, and how poorly that work was served for smaller managers.
He founded Vishwaksena Consulting LLP in late 2017 as a single destination for investment funds: comprehensive GCRT support for the GPs of small and midsize firms, delivered with the rigour of a large institution and the attentiveness of an internal team.
“A91 Partners has worked with the Vishwaksena team since the inception of our firm, and we have been delighted to do so. The Vishwaksena team is trustworthy, reliable and understands the nuances of finance and compliance for fund management and investment firms in India. We'd recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable partner.”
