Venture capital provides long-term funding for growing companies in exchange for equity. Venture capitalists seek high-growth companies led by experienced management teams. To attract venture capital, a business plan must demonstrate a large market opportunity, competitive advantage, strong financial projections, and validation. Raising venture capital is a selective process that can take several months and requires understanding the investors' evaluation criteria.

In recent years, the real estate market in India has shown tremendous growth driven by factors such as infrastructure development, urbanization, and increasing disposable income. More and more retail investors are drawing towards the lucrative real estate sector. A notable shift in redefining this sector is the introduction of Small and Medium Real Estate Investment Trusts (SM REITs) with lower asset size of INR 50 crores which would unlock more avenues to monetise real estate assets.
According to Mr. Pankaj Jain, Founder of EaseProp, “SM REITs is expanding retail investor participation with minimum requirement of 200 investors and helping low ticket size investors with investment amount as low as INR 10 lacs, to bet on high-value assets. He also adds that SEBI’s move to ensure enhanced investor protection will further boost investor confidence and promote accountability and transparency within the real estate sector.”
His company, EaseProp in association with Global Realty Institute (GRI) as its knowledge partner, presents the latest knowledge report on SM REITs, offering invaluable insights into the real estate sector. The report outlines Global context of REITs and the regulatory framework for SM REITs in India. It also details out study on the investment outlook for investors in SM REITs in India to help them navigate this opportunity.
There is an interesting section in the knowledge report that showcases the success stories of Indian REITs. The report delves deeper into the intricacies of REITs and analyses market trends and the impact of digital technologies in reshaping the real estate industry.
Mr. Pankaj Jain says, “Our knowledge report is backed by extensive analysis to empower investors with actionable intelligence that can not only help them to make informed decisions but also to maximize their returns on investment.”

Venture Capital provides long-term, committed share

and succeed. If you are looking to start up or

5. Would your company be attractive
for Venture Capital?
Many companies are “life-style” businesses whose
main purpose is to provide a good standard of living
and job satisfaction for their owners. These businesses
are not generally suitable for venture capital
investment, as they are unlikely to provide the
potential financial returns to make them of interest to
an external investor.
5
6. Would your company be attractive
for Venture capital? Contd..
Venture Capital firms are interested in “Entrepreneurial”
businesses which can be distinguished from others by
their aspirations and potential for growth, rather than
by their current size. Such businesses are aiming to
grow rapidly to a significant size. Venture capital
investors are only interested in companies with high
growth prospects, which are managed by experienced
and ambitious teams who are capable of turning their
business plan into reality.
6
7. What venture capital investors look for?
The expertise and track record of the founders and
management
The features and growth potential of the market
The synergy between the management, business
opportunity and the investors’ skills and investment
preferences
The financial commitment of the entrepreneur
The exit avenues
7
8. How do venture capital firms evaluate?
Is the product or service commercially viable?
Does the company have potential for sustained
growth?
Does management have the ability to exploit this
potential and control the company through the
growth phases?
Does the possible reward justify the risk?
Does the potential financial return on the investment
meet their investment criteria?
8
9. Critical factors for venture capital?
Reliable Idea: What makes an idea compelling to an
investor is that it reflects a deep understanding of a big
problem and offers a viable solution.
Market Opportunity: You should be targeting a sector
that is not already crowded and there is a significant
problem that needs to be solved, or an opportunity that
has not been exploited
9
10. Critical factors for venture capital? Contd..
Competitive Advantage: Competition is not just about
direct competitors; it includes alternatives and other
better solutions.
Team: The promoters must have the ability to launch
the company and attract the good talent that is
needed to execute the idea successfully.
10
11. Critical factors for venture capital? Contd..
Financial Projections: Your projections must tell your
story in figures—what drives your business growth,
what drives your profit, and how your company will
evolve over the next few years.
Validation: Is there any evidence that your solution will
be interesting for your target customers? Do you have
an advisory board of reliable industry experts?
11
12. How to fine tune business plan?
A business plan should show potential investors that if
they invest in your business, you and your team will
give them a unique opportunity to participate in making
an excellent return.
It should be considered an essential document for
owners and management to formally assess market
needs and the competition; review the business’
strengths and weaknesses; and to identify its critical
success factors and what must be done to achieve
profitable growth.

• Understand Process
• Allot enough time to raise funds (6-8 mos)
• Timing and appropriateness of VC investment
• Stage investments to get maximum valuation
• Know limits of negotiation

16. Useful tips
Be prepared that private equity investment is a highly
selective process – VC typically invest in only 2% to
5% of the opportunities they see, and they see a lot of
proposals. The proposals selected should have
potential for high growth in sales, profits and
shareholder value and have the management team to
achieve that growth.
VC are usually investing other people’s money and
that they are highly regulated to do their job properly.
They will need to have a detailed understanding of you
and your business before they invest – this takes time,
so you must need a lot of patience. The process of
raising venture capital will typically take 3 to 6
months.
16
17. Useful tips contd..
Always keep in mind that VC back teams – rather than
individuals – so make sure you cover the entire key
management functions relevant to your business: e.g.
general management, marketing, sales, finance,
development, production, fulfillment etc. PE will be
looking for both breadth and depth of experience.
Don’t assume that VC know your products, sector or
industry, so keep it simple and avoid - or at least be
prepared to explain – any jargon. Don’t be afraid to go
right back to first principles if necessary.
17
18. Useful tips contd..
Remember that you are selling a stake in your
company, so treat VC the same way you’d treat any
potential customer or commercial partner.
Be prepared to answer very detailed questions about
projected sales and their related direct costs, market
drivers, products, actual and potential customers,
pricing, volumes, sales and marketing strategy,
competition etc. – this is the heart of your proposal.
Get advice from a firm that understands venture
capital – in the long run it could save you time,
money and heartache.
