Our Strategy Background

Our Strategy

India's manufacturing sector is set to rise from 16% to 25% of a future $25T GDP, yet it receives only 6% of private equity capital today. This structural disconnect represents one of the country's largest investment opportunities. Global South Capital is built to bridge this gap by directing focused, on-the-ground capital into India's industrial backbone.

OUR STRATEGY

Core Focus

We focus on mid-sized, B2B manufacturing companies at the heart of India's industrial growth. Our mandate targets businesses with strong fundamentals and scalable operating models.

Thematic Shifts

We invest behind India's major structural shifts: domestic demand, import substitution, exports, and China+N supply-chain realignments. These themes anchor our long-term investment conviction.

OUR STRATEGY

Target Profile

We partner with mid-sized, privately held, profitable companies ready for the next phase of growth. Typical holding periods are 3–5 years, with exits through IPOs, M&A, or global strategic acquirers.
