India lures private equity investors

Everstone Capital highlights the strong investor appetite for the sub-continent with a new $550m fund

Investor appetite for Indian-focused private equity funds continues to rise with the news that private equity firm Everstone Capital Partners is about to close its £550m fund just 13 months after beginning fundraising.

The speed is in stark contrast to the 18 months it took the average private equity firm to raise funds in 2010, up from 16 months in 2008, according to data provider Preqin.
