Now leading Asia-focused investment firm Synergy Capital from Dubai, Maheshwari is directing renewed attention towards India’s steel sector. The fund maintains a strong strategic focus on India, with a committed investment of around $1 billion in private equity and credit across major groups such as GMR, Shapoorji Pallonji, and JSW Cement, Maheshwari told.
