Peak XV Partners: Leadership Change
Three senior partners (Ashish Agrawal, Ishaan Mittal, Tejeshwi Sharma) departed Peak XV Partners following successful exits including Groww IPO. They have since launched Mettle Capital. Multiple other partner exits from Peak XV and other tier-1 VC firms (Z47, Elevation Capital) indicate broader talent flight driven by carry share disputes and autonomy issues.
