With LP interest on the rise, PEI profiles four of the country's most notable private equity managers.

A larger proportion of the firm's latest flagship will go towards control investments, partners Gaurav Ahuja and Ashley Menezes tell PEI.

The Mumbai-based manager, which closed a $700m continuation fund in April, will begin fundraising for its 10th flagship this year, PEI understands.

More than 80 India focused funds collected around $16bn between them over the past two years, according to PEI data.

The India-focused manager raised $257m more than its previous vehicle after four months on the fundraising trail.

The India-focused firm has already made two deals from the fund: IT services company L&T Infotech and lending company Hero Fincorp.

The India-focused firm has already made two investments from its seventh vehicle, which is targeting $600m.

Less than a year since it began fundraising, the Mumbai-based buyout firm’s latest fund is on track to collect between a targeted $600m and $650m, up from the $510m it raised for its previous fund, ChrysCapital VI, which closed in 2012.
