Alt Carbon

Alt Carbon is a deeptech science and data company, building agri infrastructure for climate action. We aim to make South Asia a hub for Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) through technology pathways like Enhanced Rock Weathering. We work with farmers and scientists in the Global South, to turn underutilized land into carbon sinks. Our flagship initiative, the Darjeeling Revival Project (DRP), is a first-of-its-kind effort to unite climate action with cultural and ecological restoration — by reviving degraded soils, restoring livelihoods, and rebuilding ecosystems. We’re rooted in science, powered by community, and driven by the belief that revivals require ambitious people and audacious bets. Our mission is to remove 5 million metric tons of CO₂ by 2030.

Mygate

Mygate is India’s largest & most comprehensive community management and accounting ERP platform, built ground up for gated communities. Founded in 2016 by Vijay Arisetty, Abhishek Kumar, and Shreyans Daga, the company began with a simple idea to address the nagging problems of everyday gated community life. Today, Mygate is used by over 5 million residents & 27,000+ housing societies across India, making it the most widely adopted platform in the space. What started with a visitor management module has evolved into a 250+ feature ERP suite, covering everything a management committee needs to run a society efficiently and transparently. The platform includes a robust finance and accounting module, trusted by thousands of treasurers and auditors for its depth and reliability. It handles invoicing, collections, TDS, GST, reconciliation, budgeting, audit logs, and vendor payments, all tailored specifically for the needs of residential societies. Unlike generic accounting software, Mygate’s system understands the nuances of gated community finances from corpus tracking to penalty logic to compliance-ready reporting. Alongside accounting, the app enables facility bookings, communication, complaints tracking, document sharing, polling, staff attendance, vehicle databases, asset tracking, and much more. All features are modular, mobile-first, and built with a deep understanding of how gated communities function on the ground. Rated highest on both Google Play and the App Store, Mygate continues to lead on product depth, adoption, and ease of use. In 2024, the company also launched Mygate Locks, a line of smart door locks that integrates directly with the app part of a broader push to create a connected, seamless living experience across digital and physical infrastructure. What sets Mygate apart is its singular focus on building a full-stack ERP for communities. Where others offer partial solutions, Mygate is the only player delivering scale, depth & innovation.
