T.V. Mohandas Pai, Chairman of Manipal Global Education said about Chenraj Roychand,"He is the Indian version of an angel investor with a lot of mentoring and support, where you treat it as a family business and the entrepreneur becomes part of the family. It is not like the Western model of high growth and high return. Here, the person who is mentoring is more important than the investment."
