360 ONE Wealth and VCCEDGE Release the 8th Edition of India Invests Report for FY 2024-25
VMPL Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 13: 360 ONE Wealth, in association with VCCEDGE, has unveiled the eighth edition of the India Invests (i2) Report for FY 2024-25. The comprehensive report offers a deep dive into India's private equity (PE), venture capital (VC), startup, M & A, and exit landscape, uncovering trends, sectoral shifts, and investor sentiment across the ecosystem. Despite macroeconomic headwinds, India's investment activity displayed remarkable resilience. FY 2024-25 saw a resurgence in private equity deals, with a 10% rise in value and stable deal volumes. This growth was driven by a clear preference for scalable B2B business models, especially in the healthcare and industrial sectors. Startups also saw a strong rebound, with VC deal value jumping 35% and a significant uptick in late-stage funding. Notably, Zepto's $1.3 bn+ fundraise and Access Healthcare's $1.4 bn deal were among the standout transactions. B2B-led startups continued to attract larger cheques, reflecting sustained confidence in enterprise-focused innovations. In M & A, India witnessed a sharp 40% rise in deal volume, supported by domestic consolidation and a 53% increase in outbound deal activity, reflecting Indian corporates' global ambitions. Utilities led the charge in deal value, while the IT sector retained the top spot in deal count. However, private equity exits witnessed a steep decline--exit volumes halved and value fell 67%. Open Market routes dominated, although the rising share of M & A exits indicated investors pivot toward more stable exit avenues amidst market volatility. Yatin Shah, Co-founder of 360 ONE & CEO of 360 ONE Wealth, said, "India's investment ecosystem is undergoing a healthy recalibration. Domestic flows into the Alternatives space have picked up meaningfully. Family offices, UHNIs and HNIs are steadily increasing allocations to private market strategies--signalling a broader acceptance of these as core portfolio holdings. FY25 was a year of quiet conviction. Investors were selective, strategic, and focused on long-term value. The building blocks for a strong vintage are already in place, and we believe FY26 will carry forward the momentum with greater clarity and purpose. This edition of India Invests offers a deeper perspective on the direction of private capital in India."
