Founded by Raiyaan Shingati and Mohammed Shoeb Ali, the firm is positioned to address the 'missing middle' in venture capital by targeting engineering-led startups within India’s energy sector. The team is dedicated to fostering innovation in energy transition technologies, differentiating itself by backing companies in the electrification, energy storage, industrial decarbonisation, alternative fuels, and next-generation manufacturing spaces.

Transition VC invests in startups building infrastructure for India's energy transition, with typical check sizes ranging from $2-5 million. The firm specifically looks for projects with potential to impact the country's engineering and infrastructure landscape. With an initial fund closed at $77 million in 2025 and a second fund targeting $155 million, Transition VC collaborates with a diverse set of limited partners including institutional investors, corporates, and strategic industry leaders.

Some of the notable companies in Transition VC's portfolio include CIMware, Comminent, Matel, EMO, Hydgen, Dynolt, and Promethean. These ventures are engaged in developing pioneering solutions in sectors like electrification and alternative energy fuels. Despite challenges in the VC landscape in 2026, Transition VC remains committed to sustainable fund growth and impactful investments.
