How we do
Why we do
India’s growth story is being written by its small and mid-sized enterprises. They account for nearly a third of the nation’s GDP, generate millions of jobs, and are at the forefront of innovation. Yet, these businesses often face capital gaps that limit their potential. At Alpha AIF, we exist to bridge that gap. We invest where vision meets resilience, helping entrepreneurs turn promising ideas into enduring enterprises. By backing India’s SMEs, we’re not just seeking strong returns—we’re enabling the next generation of industry leaders.
Why we do
Our approach is built on discipline and depth. Using our proprietary LMVT framework, we identify businesses with sound fundamentals, scalable models, and sustainable moats. We enter early—often at the pre-IPO or IPO stage—positioning our investors at the start of the growth curve. Every opportunity is assessed with forensic diligence, blending quantitative analysis with qualitative insights to uncover hidden risks and protect capital. Through diversification, dynamic risk management, and sectoral foresight, we strike a balance between downside protection and the potential for outsized, long-term gains.
Alpha AIF is a SEBI-registered Category I Alternative Investment Fund with a dedicated focus on high-growth SMEs. The fund size is ₹250 crores, with a greenshoe option of ₹250 crores. We invest across sectors where strong execution, policy support, and structural tailwinds converge—such as clean energy, technology, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing. Our role goes beyond capital deployment; we partner with entrepreneurs to create long-term value, help them access larger markets, and prepare them for mainboard success. For our investors, we deliver curated exposure to the hidden alpha that India’s SME landscape offers.
AIF is seamless with our structured process.
