About Leena Tewari

The media-shy heir of a pharma fortune, Leena Tewari chairs privately held USV India, which her late father Vithal Gandhi set up with Revlon in 1961.

USV specializes in diabetic and cardiovascular drugs, with a portfolio that spans biosimilar drugs, injectables and active pharmaceutical ingredients.

The $511 million (revenue) company is run by her husband, Prashant, an Indian Institute of Technology grad and mechanical engineer from Cornell.

In 2018, USV acquired German generics firm Juta Pharma for an undisclosed sum.

Daughter Aneesha Gandhi Tewari, who has a Ph.D. in molecular biology from MIT, was appointed to USV's board in August 2022.
