Investor Perspectives
Funds double down as India takes center stage
Leading global/regional funds are planning to ramp up capital allocation to India, earmarking substantial capital for India.
Domestic PE funds have become an increasingly key part of India’s PE-VC landscape, announcing their largest fund -raises to date and substantially increase their share of PE investments (growing their relative share 2.5 times over 2019-23)
This trend has been accompanied by a significant expansion of India-based teams by PE funds growing roughly twofold over 2019-23, spanning both investing and operating professionals.
As India’s PE-VC landscape matures India-focused funds are actively diversifying into new sectors and asset classes:
Sectors: Healthcare, manufacturing, new-age tech, and Saas are focus areas for funds, while govt-linked investors in particular have continued to diversify their focus as they scale their India investments.
Asset Classes: The global focus on private credit has extended to India, with numerous India funds launching credit strategies, while other have expanded into growth, infra and impact investing
