ADIA anchored the fund with a commitment exceeding $675 million, marking its sixth consecutive investment in Kotak Alts' real estate platform. The relationship between the two organisations spans more than a decade and multiple fund vintages.

ADIA's sixth consecutive commitment to our platform is a testament to the trust earned over a decade of consistent delivery."
