Private equity (PE) investments in India reached $30.89 billion between January and November 2024, marking a 22.7% increase from the same period in 2023. This growth was accompanied by a rise in deal count, with 1,022 deals compared to 863 in the previous year. A notable trend in 2024 was the prominence of IPO exits, which became mainstream for the Indian PE industry. Experts highlighted that these exits were crucial for investor confidence and were not limited to minority stakes but included control positions. Despite global macroeconomic challenges, domestic capital has gained traction in the Indian PE landscape https://lnkd.in/gmm6-cMa

Increased investor interest and innovative financial strategies are driving the PE’s market maturity in India, positioning the nation as a key player in the global investment landscape. In a conversation with Katrina Lau of PEI, Ashley Menezes, Partner and COO at ChrysCapital, and Chairperson, Indian Venture and Alternate Capital Association (IVCA), and Gaurav Ahuja, Partner, ChrysCapital, explored the current PE landscape in India. Ashley Menezes noted that most institutional LPs in India still need further education on the asset class before they are ready to invest: “People are not very accustomed to investing in – first of all – equities, it's still a small portion of the investible funds, and alternate investments have an even lower proportion.”  He also emphasised the need for domestic capital: “We believe as an industry, it is important to have a domestic LP ecosystem which can provide an arbitrage, you don't want to be overly dependent on overseas capital because there could be other factors that are not within your control.” Gaurav Ahuja observed that structural changes, such as socioeconomic tailwinds and rising exit values, have heightened LP appetites for India. He shared that ChrysCapital expects to deploy 40–50% of its ninth flagship in control deals, as Indian businesses have become open to the idea of selling control stakes. “If you look at the Indian private equity market 10 years ago, control deals were only 10-12 percent of the overall private equity market – today it is close to 30 percent. We have done well investing in minority deals, but if all else is equal, control stakes may even offer a better risk-reward profile,” said Gaurav Ahuja.

In today’s dynamic investment landscape, the Fundraising (FR) and Investor Relations (IR) function has become a critical driver for the success of both Private Equity (PE) and Venture Capital (VC) funds. This is especially true for global, domestic and 1st time funds focused on raising India-dedicated capital as well as foreign capital. With India's rapidly evolving market and its position as a global growth hub, the demand for professionals adept in this space has surged. As funds look to attract diverse pools of capital – whether it’s from domestic institutional investors or global players – having an experienced and strategic IR function is crucial for building trust, managing investor relationships, and successfully securing commitments. The landscape is rapidly changing, and a tailored, thoughtful approach to fundraising and investor communications has never been more important. In last 2 moths, Michael Page has been mandated over a dozen + roles in FR/IR space and we have successfully closed multiple VP/Director+ searches in last 6 months [India Geography only] For funds looking to understand this space or learn more about the potential and top talent pool, feel free to reach out to me on tanaysrivastava@michaelpage.co.in. #Fundraising #InvestorRelations #PrivateEquity #VentureCapital #IndiaCapital #GlobalCapital #InvestmentProfessionals Anshul Lodha FRM Nikita Yadav Rohit Gadekar Rupali Taluja Vinaya Jhangiani

Around 2021, many alternative investment platforms like P2P, asset leasing, co-owned real estate, etc., were growing rapidly. However, now the majority of these companies are struggling to attract even a single customer. As Indian investors are becoming more educated, these companies’ businesses are becoming more difficult. This is because investors are now thoroughly reading offers before investing, which wasn’t the case earlier. Sometimes, it feels good to see this change.
