PE firm Multiples closes $430 Mn continuation fund
Medial

Private equity firm Multiples Alternate Asset Management has raised $430 million for a continuation fund to extend its investment in three portfolio companies — Vastu Housing Finance, Quantiphi, and APAC Financial Services. The transaction allows investors in Multiples Fund II to monetize their investments while enabling the firm to continue holding on to high-performing assets, according to a press release. The continuation fund, which was oversubscribed, is backed by four global investors — HarbourVest Partners, Hamilton Lane, LGT Capital Partners, and TPG NewQuest. Some existing Fund II investors have also rolled over their commitments into the new vehicle. Vastu Housing Finance is focused on affordable housing credit, Quantiphi provides AI and digital engineering solutions, and APAC Financial Services is an emerging financial platform with a growing nationwide presence. The fund also includes additional capital for follow-on investments in these companies. Renuka Ramnath-led Multiples has backed more than 35 companies and seen exits across IPOs, strategic sales, and secondary transactions.

The firm plans to invest the capital in established companies across consumer, healthcare, financial services, enterprise technology, and industrial sectors. ChrysCapital has now raised around $8.5 billion across ten private equity funds, a continuation vehicle, and a public markets fund since 1999. It has deployed over $5.5 billion across 110 portfolio companies and realised $7.8 billion across 80 exits with a reported 3.0x ROI. Its past investments include Intas Pharmaceuticals, Mankind Pharma, GeBBS Healthcare, Infogain, NSE, and Awfis. Fund X added over 30 new global investors, including pension funds, insurers, asset managers, and family offices from Japan, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Europe, and the US. For the first time, ChrysCapital also raised capital from Indian institutional investors and large family offices. The fund reached its final close within six months of its first close. The firm plans to deploy Fund X over the next 3–4 years and has several transactions in progress. The strategy continues to focus on majority and minority investments in businesses with strong governance, clear growth levers, and defined exit visibility. ChrysCapital competes with PE firms active in India such as TPG, Bain Capital, KKR, Blackstone, Carlyle, Warburg Pincus, and Multiples.
