• Rs 2,000 crore Bharat Bhoomi Fund initiated to invest in real estate and infrastructure assets in India.
• Launch-ready plots, data centres, warehousing, and green assets in metro cities and growth corridors focus.
• Headed by experienced professionals from Walmart, Shell, and Reliance, supported by a global advisory board.

While India's infrastructure pace picks up and real estate becomes popular among institutional players, Mumbai headquartered Pantomath Group's asset management business The Wealth Company has introduced the Bharat Bhoomi Fund, a  Rs 2,000 crore scheme with high-potential physical assets.

Organized under Category II Alternative Investment Fund (AIF), Bharat Bhoomi Fund has a minimum corpus of  Rs 1,000 crore and an incremental  Rs 1,000 crore in greenshoe option. This is a part of the overall Bharat Value Fund (BVF) series and represents The Wealth Company's entry into real estate investing, providing institutional and family office investors access to yield-generating infrastructure and land-based opportunities.

As opposed to other BVF funds that focused on pre-IPO businesses under the India Inflection Opportunity Trust (IIOT), this fund focuses on real, physical assets. It matches the move of India towards infrastructure, sustainability, and digitalization.

Led by Rakesh Kumar, a real estate veteran with 50,000+ transactions and leadership roles at Shell, Walmart, and Reliance, the fund team also includes Bhavya Bagrecha, known for executing institutional real estate deals over  Rs 2,500 crore and launching India’s first REIT-style vehicle under SEBI’s VCF norms. An experienced global advisory board supports them, including Peter Sharp, ex-Walmart Asia real estate head.

The fund has a launch-ready pipeline of about 1,200 acres over six projects already. It concentrates on assets with clear titles and regulatory approvals for quick deployment and exit options. The sectors in focus are data centres, warehousing, renewable energy parks, and hospitality corridors, along with plotted developments and residential projects such as villas, mid-premium housing, and mixed-use projects in India's major metros Mumbai, NCR, Pune, Bengaluru, Chennai, and Hyderabad.

It will also draw from peri-urban and infrastructure-led growth corridors, as part of India's accelerating transportation upgrades and smart urbanization.

"Our entry into real estate via the Bharat Bhoomi Fund is driven by demand for physical assets that generate real results," stated Madhu Lunawat, Founder and Director, The Wealth Company Asset Management. "This fund illustrates our conviction in India's next growth cycle fuelled by data, discipline, and domain expertise."
