Non-banking financial company Altico Capital India today said it has invested Rs 575 crore in three real estate developers in Mumbai, Pune and Bengaluru.
Altico entered into a multi-project financing arrangement with Marvel Developers, Pune. Additionally, it concluded its second transaction with Midcity group, a developer having brownfield projects focused on society redevelopments in prominent locations in Mumbai. The third was in Bengaluru financing Unishire against a portfolio of five projects, a company release said.
The company expects similar amount of disbursements of around Rs 600 crore in the next three months.
"Altico continues to focus on its core strategy and looks to build a stable business deploying Rs 2,500 crore in Tier 1 cities each year. We expect to close out similar amounts of disbursements of around Rs 600 crore in this upcoming quarter," Altico Capital CEO Sanjay Grewal said.
Going forward, Altico plans to gradually expand within its areas of expertise.
"This year we expanded our footprint from Mumbai, NCR and Chennai to Bengaluru and Pune. Next year we may add another city to our target markets. Outside of the core strategy, we will look to deploy incremental capital in the commercial real estate and infrastructure sectors should the right opportunities present themselves," Grewal said.
