About Rebalance Angel Community
Rebalance Angel Community is the angel network of Rebalance, an accelerator based in Gurugram, India. Aishwarya Malhi and Vikas Kumar co-founded Rebalance in 2019. It describes itself as India's first accelerator and angel community focused on women and diverse founders.
According to YourStory (April 2026), Rebalance has supported more than 200 founders across 10 cohorts from India, Singapore, Hong Kong, Canada and Berlin. The community is about 60% women and 35% first-time investors. Malhi and Kumar choose founders from the accelerator cohorts to invest in through the community.
YourStory reports that the community has made 30 investments, 26 of them currently active. Of the 26, 19 are women-led (76%) and 10 are in deeptech (38%). Reported co-investors include Blume, 3one4 Capital, Antler, Pi Ventures, Y Combinator and B Capital.
Rebalance's Instagram bio says its investments have moved $50M. The community can join or lead rounds. One example is a $250K pre-seed round in VECROS, which it led, announced on LinkedIn by co-founder Aishwarya Malhi.
AI is one of several sectors in the portfolio. Reported AI-related companies include BrainSight AI, which does AI neuropsychiatric screening, and Pinky Promise, which works on women's health AI. Investment years for these companies are not stated in the sources I found.
YourStory reports that the network invests across all stages. Cheques go up to $200,000 (Rs 3.5 crore to 4 crore), and the community can join or lead rounds on flexible terms. Rebalance's own pages also describe investments of up to $200K.
Reported sectors include energy storage, healthcare, AI, climate, fintech and proptech. The program centres on women founders. Investments are not limited to them, and founders who don't meet the program's criteria can pitch Rebalance directly. Rebalance is based in India, and its cohorts have included founders from other countries.
