Canonicus Capital Secures ₹200 Crore for NCR Real Estate Investments
Canonicus Capital, under the leadership of Rajan Gupta, has announced the successful closure of its private equity fund with committed capital of ₹200 crore. The fund is dedicated to investing in high-impact, high-potential real estate opportunities across the National Capital Region (NCR).
The fund will primarily focus on opportunities offering strong downside protection, secure structures, and high-return visibility. Investment priorities include last-mile completion financing and short-term bridge funding structured as pre-launch debt segments where capital plays a critical role in enabling timely project delivery.
Speaking on the fund strategy, Rajan Gupta, Director of Canonicus Capital, said, “Private equity comes with high hurdle-rate expectations. To deliver those returns responsibly, we intend to back projects where capital acts as a catalyst for timely delivery and value unlocking.”
Canonicus Capital is open to acquiring marquee under-development assets that can ultimately be sold to REITs, given the evolving appetite of global institutional investors. Pension funds are still cautious about development risk but continue to pay a premium for fully developed, rental-yielding assets. That creates a strong opportunity for sponsors who can take projects from mid-stage to completion, further added Gupta.
With this fund closure, Canonicus Capital positions itself among the few private equity platforms in India with a focused strategy on structured credit, operational turnaround, and value creation within the real estate sector. This strategic move is expected to drive significant growth and enhance the company's presence in the competitive real estate market.
Canonicus Capital is a leading investment firm that specializes in real estate investments, focusing on structured credit, operational turnaround, and value creation. The company has a strong track record of delivering exceptional returns and is committed to responsible investing practices. Under the leadership of Rajan Gupta, Canonicus Capital aims to capitalize on the growing opportunities in the NCR real estate market and deliver high-value returns to its investors.
