The site expanded its coverage of Indian business to a larger audience[5] of entrepreneurs, corporate executives, investors, legal professionals and bankers.[6] VCCircle offers insight[7] and opinion[8] on various business happenings. Since its acquisition by HT Media Limited, VCCircle started working alongside Mint, the second largest business daily in India. The company routinely publishes exclusive articles on the venture capital and the private equity community on its website. Some of these articles are also published in the Mint.

In May 2012, VCCircle.com introduced a paywall.[9] It is the first business news website in India to introduce a paywall. VCCircle announced an award in 2012 which recognised the best performing PE/VC-backed companies in various sectors and also law firms and investment banks who have done the maximum number of deals in a given year.[10]

The second edition of awards was held in February 2013.[11] VCCircle Network got the DEMO conference to start an event in India. The event was held on 20 and 21 March 2013 in Bengaluru.[12]

The third edition of VCCircle Awards[13] was held in February 2014.
