IDFC Alternatives, the private equity (PE) arm of IDFC has finally exited from its proprietary India Office Fund with an IRR of 22%. It had seeded the fund with investments in two office parks - Galaxy IT Park, Noida & BlueRidge SEZ, Pune acquired at an enterprise value of approximately Rs 9 billion (US$ 150 million). The Fund has sold these assets to real estate funds managed by Blackstone.
IDFC Alternatives, which has a dedicated real estate team, was one of the earlier fund managers to pursue a strategy to acquire complete control of ready office assets in India. It acquired Galaxy IT park admeasuring about 1.3 million sq. ft. in December 2011 and BlueRidge SEZ admeasuring about 1.5 million sq. ft. in March 2013.
IDFC Alternatives created value by leasing, maintaining and actively managing these office assets. With this exit, IDFC Alternatives has successfully completed the full investment cycle and proven its ability to identify emerging investment opportunities at attractive valuations.
IDFC is the country’s leading integrated infrastructure finance player providing end to end infrastructure financing and project implementation services.
