South Korea’s private equity fund STIC Investment recently invested $10 million in Ninjacart, India’s No.1 grocery wholesale platform that allows users to trade agricultural produce via mobile application, according to sources from the investment banking industry. The Indian company pulled $45 million worth funds in total during the latest fundraising.
The Indian government launched ‘Make in India’ initiative to encourage foreign firms to enter the market in return for incentives. The Korea International Trade Association predicted India would be leading global economic recovery in the post Covid-19 era.
An IB industry official also said that PEFs that stockpiled a record high amount of dry powder, or cash reserves available to deploy when an attractive investment opportunity arises, are expected to pour their money into India once the Covid-19 crisis eases.
