Mumbai (Maharashtra) (India), September 11: Arka Investment Advisory Services Private Limited (AIASPL) has launched its second alternative investment fund – Arka Hreem Real Estate Opportunities Fund (the “Fund”). Rohan Builders, a leading player in the real estate and EPC space, joins as the Operating Partner of the Fund through its financial services arm, Hreem. The Fund’s first programme – Arka Hreem Real Estate Opportunities Fund I (Arka Hreem Fund) has a target size of INR 500 crores and a green shoe of INR 250 crores with a focus on equity investments in residential real estate across India. This launch comes after the successful final close of Arka’s first private credit fund.

Arka Hreem Fund is strategically designed to attract equity investment into the Indian housing sector with good quality counterparties in metro cities that are starved of institutional capital despite the recovery in recent years due to better corporate governance, sector consolidation and high growth potential. The fund will focus on Tier 1 cities and invest with Grade A development partners. It is managed by AIASPL and sponsored by Arka Financial Holdings Pvt Ltd – a financial services platform backed by Kirloskar Oil Engines Limited. The unique structure with Rohan Builders as a partner provides a combination of deep industry knowledge and solid investment acumen.

“We are proud to introduce Arka Hreem Real Estate Opportunities Fund as a strategic investment opportunity that aligns with our commitment to delivering exceptional value to all our stakeholders,” said Sonit Singh, Chief Business Officer – Real Estate, Asset Management & Advisory. “Our association with Rohan Builders and support of Kirloskar Group are an example of our commitment to addressing market needs and achieving higher returns for our investors.”

“Our engagement with Arka Investment Advisory in Arka Hreem Fund is a strategic move to leverage our deep industry knowledge, strong execution capability and extensive network in the real estate sector. We are excited about the potential this fund has for the sector as it is not dedicated to Rohan or its projects but rather to the market and we are confident that it will provide significant value to both developers and investors,” said Suhas Lunkad, Chairman and Managing Director, Rohan Builders.

The first fund, Arka Credit Fund I, performed well with investments in sectors such as transportation, real estate, financial services, steel production and waste management, demonstrating its ability to support companies across sectors and at different stages of development.
