Points to weigh, drawn from the offer document and the figures on the other tabs
The company has more than 17 years of investment experience and operates as one of the leading alternatives platforms in India, managing long-term patient capital across real assets and private credit.
The platform offers a diversified range of alternative investment strategies focused primarily on income and yield, providing stability and predictability across different market cycles.
As of June 30, 2026, the company managed 11,009 client relationships globally and domestically, with repeat clients contributing 77% of total AUM.
Through its subsidiary Sekura, the company maintains in-house operational capabilities to oversee assets on the ground, manage risks, and drive efficiency and turnaround across portfolio investments.
The company uses proprietary in-house and integrated technology systems to automate deal pipelines, client onboarding, risk tracking, and fund accounting, enhancing scalability and efficiency.
Variable Additional Return constituted 30.14% of Total Income in FY26 and 32.41% for the three months ended June 30, 2026; however, actual cash realisations depend on exits and underlying fund distributions, causing volatility and divergence between accounting profit and operating cash flow.
The company experienced negative net cash flows from operating activities in FY24 (₹132.70 million) and FY25 (₹1,201.69 million), largely due to the timing difference between accrual and cash receipt of Variable Additional Return.
Most investments held by the funds are illiquid privately negotiated instruments with no readily ascertainable market prices, making valuations subject to estimates and assumptions that may not be fully realized upon exit.
As of June 30, 2026, the company's top 10 clients contributed 26.20% of Fee-Paying AUM, exposing the business to potential disruptions if key clients fail to meet capital calls or alter their investment behavior.
The company does not have directly comparable Indian listed peers due to differences in business operations within alternative asset management, which may impact investor perception and valuation benchmarking.
