Targeting execution-ready real estate projects, the fund will focus on sectors such as data centres, warehousing, hospitality, renewable energy parks, mid-to-premium housing, and plotted developments. Its investment strategy will prioritise high-growth regions like Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), NCR, Pune, Bengaluru, Chennai, and Hyderabad.

The Bharat Bhoomi Fund will pursue a diversified capital allocation strategy, investing in projects with clear land titles, regulatory approvals, and early exit visibility. The Wealth Company has already identified a pipeline of approximately 1,200 acres across six projects.

The fund will be led by Rakesh Kumar, who has overseen more than 50,000 real estate transactions, and Bhavya Bagrecha, who has executed institutional investments worth over Rs 25 billion. Peter Sharp, former head of Asia real estate at Walmart, has joined the fund as an advisor.

Madhu Lunawat, Founder and Director at The Wealth Company, noted that the fund is aimed at capturing rising demand for real assets in India. “Bharat Bhoomi Fund allows meeting that demand with discipline, data, and domain expertise,” she said.

The Wealth Company manages a portfolio of alternative investment products under the India Inflection Opportunity Trust. Its Bharat Value Fund series targets growth-stage Indian enterprises and real assets aligned with the ‘Made in India’ vision.
