Private equity is class of asset consisting of equity securities in operating companies that are not publicly traded on a stock exchange. We facilitate private equity investments between private equity firms, venture capital firms, or angel investors to growing and profitable Indian companies.

In view of India’s phenomenal industrial growth, Private equity (PE) has established itself as a recognized financial instrument over the past decade.
