Investor Profile: Optiscape Network Holdings — Thesis, Cheque Size & How to Apply

Dubai-based investment group Optiscape Network Holdings led the ₹18.65 crore Series A of D2C cold-pressed oil brand Gramiyaa in October 2026, writing the round’s largest cheque of ₹9 crore at an estimated ₹110 crore valuation. For founders mapping Optiscape Network Holdings funding, this is the clearest signal yet of the group’s growing appetite for Indian consumer and retail-led businesses.

Who they are: a retail-focused investment group

Optiscape Network Holdings is a UAE-based investment group focused on retail and distribution investment, with a special focus on retail tech — the exact description used in its April 2024 joint-venture announcement with Omnisient, which set out to build the largest consumer-data ecosystem in the Middle East and North Africa, starting from 1.4 million consumer records across 40 merchants. The group was founded by Lekhu T Pagarani (also styled Lekhu Pagarani). A note on the name: some coverage renders it as “OptiScape Capital”, but the entity behind the investments is Optiscape Network Holdings — a private investment group, not a branded VC fund.

Track record in India: leading Series A rounds

The group’s India footprint is built on leading Series A rounds. In 2020 it led a seven-figure Series A in UAE deals platform Clip the Deal. In April 2026 it led a ₹5 crore tranche for coffee brand Sleepy Owl at a ₹172 crore post-money valuation. And in October 2026 came Gramiyaa’s ₹18.65 crore Series A, where Optiscape’s ₹9 crore anchored a round alongside Homegrown Ventures (₹4.5 crore), Campus Fund (₹4 crore), Sarya Global Holdings (₹90 lakh) and angel investor Rasagna Pulapaka (₹25 lakh) — all figures drawn from regulatory filings first reported in October 2026.

Cheque size and fund size

Neither the fund size nor the standard cheque size is publicly disclosed. What can be observed from 2026 deals is single tickets of ₹5 crore to ₹9 crore — but that is an observed range, not a stated policy.

How to apply for funding

There is no public application route — no official website, pitch form or contact email was found; this is a private investment group, not a venture firm with a deal desk. The honest playbook is warm introductions through founder Lekhu T Pagarani or via co-investor networks such as Homegrown Ventures and Campus Fund, ideally if you are building a retail, consumer or retail-tech business.
