Meenakshi Group Raises up to Rs 700 Crore for Real Estate Investment Fund
Real Estate Pune:Mumbai, June 2 (PTI) Hyderabad-based Meenakshi Group has announced its plans to raise up to Rs 700 crore for a real estate-focused alternate investment fund (AIF). The real estate group has committed 20% of the corpus size as sponsor capital for the fund, which aims to invest in up to eight deals over a period of six years, as per a statement.

The Meenakshi Group, known for its robust presence in the real estate sector, is poised to make significant strides with this new AIF. The fund will focus on investing in a variety of real estate projects, ranging from residential to commercial developments. This move is expected to bolster the group's portfolio and enhance its market position.

The initiative is part of the group's broader strategy to capitalize on the growing demand for quality real estate in India. The fund will leverage the experience and expertise of the Meenakshi Group to identify and invest in high-potential projects that offer attractive returns to investors.

In a related development, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) and the Investor Education and Protection Fund Authority (IEPFA) conducted the maiden 'Niveshak Shivir' in Pune. The investor outreach camp, held on Sunday, aimed to assist shareholders in reclaiming unpaid dividends and unclaimed shares.

Meanwhile, Saraf Furnitures, an omnichannel brand, announced its plans to hire 500 people from the LGBTQI community. The company aims to open 50 new offline retail stores over the next three years. This initiative aligns with the pride month and underlines the company's commitment to diversity and inclusion.
