Amit Goenka, Managing Director and CEO of Nisus Finance, highlighted the strong demand for last-mile construction finance, as numerous real estate projects remain unfinished. To date, Nisus has invested INR 450 crore in four transactions through RESO-1, which Nisus BCD Advisors LLP manages, out of a total fund corpus of INR 700 crore.
Recent investments include INR 60 crore in listed non-convertible debentures for Bengaluru's Project High Cliff and INR 105 crore in Shapoorji Pallonji Real Estate's subsidiary, Suvita Real Estate. The investment targeted acquiring a 12.16-acre land parcel in Pune's Manjari-Budruk area, a key growth market.
The fund's primary objective is to invest in mid-income and affordable housing projects, as well as plotted development opportunities. RESO-1 focuses on special situation funds to unlock significant value by financing projects needing financial completion. The fund targets an internal rate of return (IRR) between 18% and 22% over a five-year horizon, with the potential to extend for an additional two years if necessary.
