Chaitanya Kumar Setti currently serves as Chief Financial Officer and Director of BHAV Acquisition Corp (NASDAQ: BHAV), a special purpose acquisition company incorporated in 2025 and headquartered at 255 Old New Brunswick Road, Suite N210, Piscataway, New Jersey 08854. BHAV Acquisition Corp was formed to pursue a business combination with one or more businesses, targeting sectors such as robotics, electric vehicles, drones, and fintech. The SPAC completed its initial public offering on March 19, 2026, raising $100 million through the sale of 10,000,000 units at $10.00 per unit, with each unit consisting of one Class A ordinary share and one right entitling the holder to receive one-fourth of one Class A ordinary share upon consummation of the initial business combination. Maxim Group LLC acted as the sole book-running manager for the offering. Setti was named alongside CEO and Director Giri Devanur as a leader of the company, and the two have worked together to guide BHAV's search for a suitable acquisition target. The company's board also includes independent directors Piyush Sadana, John Patrick O'Connell, Balaji Viswanathan Swaminathan, and Thomas I. Blinten.
Prior to his role at BHAV Acquisition Corp, Setti served as a Principal Consultant at Compunnel, a technology staffing and consulting firm. He has also been associated with Opelsoft, where he held the position of Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, and is based in Edison, New Jersey. Setti pursued a graduate program in Finance at Harvard, according to professional listings. He is also registered as a director with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs in India under Director Identification Number 07751050, indicating involvement in Indian corporate governance as well. His professional background reflects a blend of consulting, finance, and executive leadership experience that positioned him for his current SPAC leadership role.
Beyond his corporate roles, Setti has been active as an angel investor. His journey in the startup ecosystem began in 2023 through an investment in CloudTailor, an India-based consumer and retail company. He participated in CloudTailor's seed round on September 30, 2023, which raised approximately $818,000 alongside co-investors including Agility and Lead Angels, among others. His investment portfolio focuses primarily on the consumer and retail sectors, with geographic emphasis on India. As of the latest SEC filings, Setti's insider trading history at BHAV Acquisition Corp shows no reported purchases or sales of shares, and his mailing address is listed as Piscataway, New Jersey 08854. His Form 4 filings reflect his positions as CFO and Director of BHAV, with the company classified under SIC code 6770 for blank check entities in the finance, insurance, and real estate sector.
This record is keyed to SEC CIK 0002112047 — the identifier this person files under in their own name. Every vehicle above is a filing made under that CIK, so “the same person on two shells” is a fact about an SEC identifier rather than about a name that happens to match.
Roles are the strings the filings used, in the order they were filed. Nothing on this page ranks them, infers seniority, or offers a reason why any two of these names recur — a recurrence is a count, and the filings that produced it are linked beside every row. We also hold 11 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 8 distinct name strings, and none of them is counted across vehicles: that table has no CIK column, and matching holders by name would merge firms that are not the same firm.
