Apax joins TPG for first investment in India

UK private equity firm Apax Partners, which opened an office in Mumbai last year, is set to make its first acquisition in India, investing alongside US buyout house TPG Capital.

Apax set up an office in Mumbai in November. The proposed acquisition of a 29% stake in Patni Computer Systems, an IT services company being sold by founders Gajendra and Ashok Patni, will be a first for Apax in the region.
