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.
Nisus Finance's focus on addressing the financing gap for real estate projects is vital, particularly for developments in the affordable housing segment. By providing critical last-mile financing, Nisus is playing a pivotal role in helping these projects move from the development phase to completion, ensuring that they reach the market on time and meet growing housing demand.
