Private equity fund-raising in India hit a new low in the third quarter of 2009 at $1.1 billion compared to $1.3 billion in the same period the previous year.
Contrast this to Q3 2007 when India-specific private equity vehicles posted a record fund-raising of $4 billion, a figure that remains unbeaten in the last 18 quarters. The Q3 2007 numbers also coincide with the market peak followed by steady decline with Q1 2009 suffering a free fall to $0.7 million, reminiscent of the pre-2005 days.
According to data from Preqin, a London-based research firm that tracks private equity fund-mopup activity globally, PE fund-raising dropped to its lowest level in five years in Q3 2009. Globally, the $38-billion in aggregate capital raised by funds holding a final close in Q3 2009 represents a significant drop from earlier this year with Q3 figures equivalent to just 45% of the $84-billion raised in Q2 2009. Even now with economy being stable and is on a recovery path
Why do you think guys there was low funding that we saw in the the 3rd quarter of 2009?
