This was still 24% than the previous year, when USD 13.9B of investment was reported. Deal count for 2016 ended at 842, down 4% over the 881 deals counted in 2015.
Dec’16 total was boosted by a mega USD 1.6B investment by Canada’s Brookfield Asset Management in tower assets to Reliance Communications. This is the second billion dollar deal by Brookfield; it had purchased a portfolio of real estate assets from Mumbai’s Hiranandani Developers in Oct’16.
In fact, Canada’s funds seem to have gone big on India this year. Apart from Brookfield, Fairfax, Canadian Pension Plan Investment Board and CDPQ were active. Between then, these funds have contributed to almost 30% of PE investments reported in 2016.

Global Venture Capital / Private Equity deals in Healthcare / Lifescience sec...India Business Reports

Around 60% of investments, spread over 20 transactions, went into supporting R&D stage companies, while the remaining went into healthcare service companies, digital health companies and health-tech providers. In India only 2 deals happened – one in services and another in devices space.
The largest deal was China’s I Mab, which completed a Series C financing for $220 million, representing one of the largest amounts ever raised in Series C by an innovative biotech company in China. I Mab focusses on innovative biologics in therapeutic areas of immuno-oncology and immuno-inflammation.

The document analyzes tax collection trends in India. It finds that India's tax-to-GDP ratio has historically been lower than most advanced economies but has been rising in recent years. Total tax collections reached Rs. 26.5 trillion (USD 385 billion) in 2016-17, with the central government collecting around two-thirds. Direct tax collections have increased as a share of total taxes, growing from 16% in 1991 to 37% in 2017. The government aims to further increase tax collections through reducing evasion and improving compliance. Recent initiatives like demonetization and the GST have added many new taxpayers and increased tax revenues based on preliminary government assessments.
- 59 venture capital and private equity deals were reported in India in June 2017, with a total of USD 901 million invested. This was an increase from June 2016 and year-to-date 2017 was up 85% over the same period in 2016.
- The fintech sector saw a surge in deals due to increased interest from funds. The largest deal was Warburg Pincus' USD 360 million investment in Tata Technologies, followed by Fairfax India Holdings' USD 200 million investment in Bangalore International Airport.
Handicraft exports out of India is a high growth business. Handicrafts exports touched USD 3.66B in 2016-17, a growth of 11% over FY16 in USD terms. In Re terms exports grew 13.8% to Rs245B in FY17, as compared to Rs216B in FY16. These figures does not include export of carpets, which is another sizeable market by itself.
Over and above the handicraft exports, India exported around USD1.8B of carpets an floor coverings. A major portion of this is handmade.
Growth rates for both – handicrafts and carpets – are healthy. Over FY10-17, handicraft exports have grown at ~15% in USD terms. Over FY97-17, a 20 year period, handicraft exports have grown at 10.2% CAGR in Re terms. Growth rate of carpets is slower, but impressive nonetheless. Exports of carpets have grown at 5% in USD terms over the last 5 years, and 13% in INR terms
Most of the exports go to developed markets like USA, UK, Germany and Japan. UAE is also a key market. USA accounts for 26% of handicraft and 50% of carpet exports. UK, Germany, Japan and UAE all account for 5-10% each.
The healthy growth rate is a good sign for Indian artisans. This sector a large employment generator. According to a study commissioned by National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC), the sector employed as many 9.6m people. It has created over 2 million jobs in the last 3 years according to NSDC data. The sector accounts for 15-20% of India’s manufacturing employment. This includes supplies to domestic market, which though is a smaller and less attractive market compared to exports.
Despite the gains made in export growth, India’s share of global handicraft market remains miniscule. According to a media interview given by a senior official The Export Promotion Council for Handicrafts (EPCH), size of the global market is USD 235B. Of this, some is produced and consumed locally. For example USA itself produces USD44B of handicrafts locally, and most likely consumes that locally. It is estimated that global export market could be in excess of USD100B. China is believed to have more than 30% share of the global trade market.
One reason for the small share of Indian handicraft is the fragmented nature of supply chain. The trade is catered to by around 9000 exporter, with maybe not more than 50 companies with revenues of over Rs 1B (USD15m). Their mode of selling is largely through trade shows. The long tail market, or the small retailer in developed countries is not catered to by the Indian exporter.
The report gives a brief overview of the Indian handicraft export business, the key government agencies and private sector companies involved in the same. It also touched upon the global market and some online companies which are created digital marketplaces for handmades.
Deal activity remained robust with USD1.8B of reported investments in April’17. This lifted ytd2017 reported deal amount to USD5.9B, 67% more than the USD3.6B amount reported in Jan-Apr’16.
In terms of number of deals, Jan-Mar’17 lags the same period in 2016, due to drop in angel investments. Deal count so far is 246, down 20% over ytd’16. Angel/early stage deals reported in ytd’17 number 156, as compared to 216, in the same period last year, entirely accounting for the drop in overall deal count.
As many has 7 deals reported invested amount in excess of USD100m. Deal table was led by the USD275m buy out of a BPO called Aegis Limited by Capital Square Partners. Kedaara Capital led a big round in a micro finance firm, and Softbank doubled down on its 2 biggest India investments: taxi hailing business Ola, and hotel room aggregator Oyo.
While investors in India are not aware of this business, globally B2B services to dentistry is a big business. The main segments of this market are: clinic capex; consumables; education, training and exhibitions. The size of this market is around ~USD50B at global level.
The size of the US market is around a third of this, around USD16B. The size of the retail market of dentistry in the US is USD160B. This makes B2B distribution around 10% of the retail market.
In India, we find B2B distribution is around 15-20% of dental revenues (less for more high earning dentists). This makes the size of the dental distribution market between Rs 20-25B.
The US market has concentrated; the two top companies have around 30% market share. This suggests scope for emergence of a scale player in the fragmented Indian market.
After the surge of PE investment in Dec’16, things once again turned tepid in the VC/PE world. Reported investment was just USD 361m in Jan’17, from 29 deals. Total reported deals were 68, the rest did not disclose deal amounts.
Among the notable deals was Warburg Pincus picking up 14% stake in listed multiplex operator PVR Limited for USD120m. This was a secondary transaction, with the promoter and existing investor Multiples PE fund selling stakes.
There were couple of large deals in the healthcare space, with online doctor listing site Practo raising USD55m from Chinese firm Tencent, and nutraceuticals API maker Omniactive Health Technologies raising USD35m from Everstone Capital.
India is rapidly emerging as a key destination for foreign investment. Both foreign direct investment (FDI) and foreign portfolio investment (FPI) have seen robust growth.
FDI reached an all time high of US$ 56B in 2015-16, 6x more than the figure a decade ago.
Mauritius and Singapore are top FDI investors in India; this is due to tax regime. India has double tax avoidance treaties, and lower local tax rates in those countries mean that investors are routing FDI through them. Also, several investors prefer Singapore as a legal jurisdiction as well.
India has become an important destination for inbound FDI in a global context. In 2015, for ex, it was the seventh meaningful nation, behind the likes of USA, China, Brazil, Canada, UK and Germany. We are ignoring some of the other nations higher up on the list, like Ireland, Hong Kong, Switzerland etc, since these are routing destinations.
The report gives overview of trend in FDI, and the governing regime for FDI in India, including sectoral caps, procedure for setting up a company in India and so on.

Reported investment was boosted by 3 large deals. The top one was a USD1B transaction in real estate, where Brookfield Asset Management picked up a folio of commercial and retail properties from Mumbai’s Hiranandani Developers. TVS Logistics attracted USD155m of investment from Canada’s CPDQ, while garment maker Arvind Brands took in USD110m from domestic PE firm Multiples Alternate Asset Management.

Deal count has also seen a recovery compared to last 2 months. The month saw 70 reported transactions as compared to 49 in Jul’16 and 59 in Jun’16.
Both deal count and amount show a drop on a YoY basis. Cumulative ytd numbers continue to suffer. For ytd 2016 (Jan-Aug’16), cumulative investment was USD5.8B, 36% lower than ytd 2015.
Sectoral allocation of investments continues to show a sharply falling trend in Internet related businesses. For Aug’16, deal count in Internet was 22, as compared to 27 in Aug’15. The sector did see a big transaction, with messenger app Hike witnessing a USD175m investment from Foxconn Technology Group. Hike has seen its valuation rise to unicorn levels.
Warburg did an interesting transaction, when it backed the erstwhile CEO of Future Supply Chain with a hefty USD125m to start a new logistics company. Presumably the idea is to make a few acquisitions.
The real estate sector in India contributed approximately 6% to GDP in FY2016. The annual value added by the real estate sector was estimated to be USD 125 billion in FY2016, with an expected growth rate of 12% annually to USD 200 billion by FY2020. Approximately 30% of household savings in India are invested in real estate. The residential segment accounted for USD 90 billion of value added in FY2016, while the commercial segment accounted for USD 35 billion. Private equity investments in Indian real estate have increased since 2015, with many large international funds investing in major developers. However, the real estate investment trust (REIT) market is still in early stages in India, though new regulations have improved the potential for
Gross invested amount in Indian VC/PE space rebounded in April, with USD 1635m of capital commitment. This was more than the USD1.5B invested in April’15, and far more than the reported anount of USD 504m in Mar’16.
Total deals reported continued to show a falling trend, with 68 deals reported in April 16, as compared to 75 in Mar’16.
For ytd 2016 (Jan-Apr’16), cumulative investment is running 19% lower than ytd 2015. 34 deals did not disclose amount invested, hence reported amount is only for 34 transactions.
Sectoral allocation of investments is now clearly showing a sharply falling count in Internet related businesses. For Apr’16, deal count in Internet was only 17, as compared to 26 in Apr’15. Barely USD10m of investment amount was reported. This was partly depressed with 10 of the 17 transactions opting to not disclose, however, they were angel type transactions. Late stage transactions were conspicuously absent this month.
Blackstone Group made a big bet by acquiring listed IT company Mphasis in a transaction worth over USD830m. Blackstone will probably pony up more in an open offer. Canada’s Fairfax Corp continued to make big bets, putting down USD250m into chemical entity Sanmar Group.
Gross invested amount in Indian VC/PE space continued to show a weak trend, with March 2016 witnessing USD 504m of reported transaction. This was less than the ~USD 624m of investment reported in Feb’16 and also less than USD 735m reported in Mar’15. For ytd 2016 (Jan-Mar’16), cumulative investment is running 33% lower than ytd 2015. 43 deals did not disclose amount invested, hence reported amount is only for 32 transactions.
The deal count was dropped marginally to 75 for Mar’16, as compared to 78 for Feb’16. Deal count has been trending down over the last 7-8 months, though it does look much better on a yoy basis. Only 53 transactions were reported in Mar’15. In in with recent trend, there is a smart spurt in reported angel investments, leading to higher deal count.
Sectoral allocation of investments shows a spurt in education sector this year. In March, as many as 8 deals were from this sector, as against only 1 in Mar’15. In first 3 months of 2016, education has seen 18 transactions as against 2 in the same period last year. The sector witnessed a big transaction, with Byju’s, a supplementary education company, raising as much as USD75m from Belgian fund Sofina and existing investor Sequoia.

Biological E focuses on vaccine development and production and has expanded its product portfolio and manufacturing facilities. It supplies over 60% of India's pediatric vaccines and has grown significantly in recent years through large export contracts. However, ongoing family disputes and a commitment to fixed pricing could impact future financial performance.

Promoters
The key promoter is Seelam Rajshekar Reddy. In 1992,
Raj Seelam was working in an agricultural products
company, when he observed the alarming use and
spread of chemical usage on farms, and the deep
impact it had on rural indebtedness. Investment in
pesticides and synthetic fertilisers meant farmers had
to borrow money, which in turn was affecting the very
sustainability of the farmer’s life and standard of
living.
This sowed the seeds for Sresta. With a group of
inspired colleagues, he set out on a lifelong journey of
passion and commitment.
The two VC funds backing Sresta owned close to 70%
of common equity as on Mar’15.
Apart from the above, there were un-converted CCPS
share as following:
As of Mar’15
After Mar’15, VentureEast Life Fund III LLC put in
another tiny tranche of 91,028 CCPSs.
Accounting for their conversion, the fulling diluted
shareholding of Sresta could look like this currently:
The 2 funds will end up owned 76.1% at full
conversion, up from 70.7% as on 31.3.2015.
BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
Procurement
Sresta has a unique farming model: One which
ensures alignment with processes and allows for
round the year supervision.
The farming is currently organised into 30 or so
projects. Spread in a radius of 15- 20 kms, the farms
acreage could range from 200 to few thousand acres.
Typically for every 100 – 150 farmers it has a
Supervisor.
Sresta procures the crop from the farm. Procurement
Centres are set up at the sites and farmers are
contacted directly without any middlemen. In fact the
payments are all done through banks and online
transfers to ensure authenticity and transparency.
Sresta’s teams check out the farmer’s knowledge,
attitude and more importantly, whether he has an
adequate understanding of sustainable living.
Then comes the choice of the right soil – finding that
particular soil well suited for a particular crop. Sresta’s
people check the soil quality, cropping pattern,
prevalent crop rotation and the nutrient levels in the
soil. This determines the matching of the soil to the
crop. While doing this, it ensures the region has a
suitable weather and temperature.
Right land, right soil, right farmer and the right crop.
That done, the next steps, are the right seeds. This is
followed by the right farming and cultivation practices.
Natural solutions to control pests, locally nurtured
wisdom and an organic connect with the land, crop
and nature are all Sresta’s dynamics and efforts at
details. Storage is done through environment control
and effective storage techniques are a result of
homegrown wisdom, usage of local resources and
proven learnings accumulated over a period of time.
Processing and storage
Sresta’s central storage and processing facility is
located in Hyderabad with regional storage centers

Subsidiaries
FYVE Elements LLC
FYVE Elements LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company which was incorporated on November 30,
2012 under the laws of the State of
Maryland, USA. Their main business is Whole-sale
retail distribution of food products and related items,
covering whole of USA. During the year under review,
the Company has invested an amount of Rs. 13.9
Million.
Sresta Global FZE
Sresta Global FZE is a wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company which was incorporated on 3 rd October
2012 under the laws of the State of RAK, UAE. Their
main business is trading of food products and related
items. During the year under review, there is no
further investment made by the Company.
MANUFACTURING FACILITIES
Sresta has its manufacturing facility and storage
facilities in Hyderabad as described in the earlier
section. However, its gross block is much smaller
compared to say Morarka Organic Foods, which has an
asset base 10x bigger than Sresta.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Sresta has done extremely well on the revenue front,
posting a CAGR of 62% over FY10-15.
5. India-Organic Food-Unlisted Sresta Natural Bioproducts 18-April-16
www.indiabusinessreports.com 5
Around 50% of its revenue comes from the local
market, which shows that its efforts of building an
organic food brand could be paying off.
However, profitability is still poor. While it is not
making losses any more, net profit is almost negligible.
There appears to be marginal improvement in EBITDA
margin.
The company is well capitalized though, since PE funds
have been supporting it with regular fund infusions.
The company has negligible debt.
However, the company will continue to need external
funding support give negative operational cash flow.
The working capital cycle is quite large at around 125
days. Lets assume in FY16, the company added Rs 60
crore of sales. This would require Rs 20 crore of
working capital. Cash generation from P&L being
negligible, this needs to come from external funding
(either bank lines or equity or a mix).
Please Note: This appears in FY15 financial filing.
During the year a cyber fraud was committed on the
company by hacking the e-mail ID of an employee and
funds aggregating to USD 6,15,070 (equivalent to INR
3,74,75,213) payable by an overseas customer
(unrelated) to the company for direct supplies
(exports) made and supplies routed through the
wholly owned subsidiary, Siesta Global FZE, Dubai
were diverted to the bank accounts of unknown
entities. On reaching an out of court settlement the
company could realize a part of the funds so diverted
and the balance (INR 1,12,79,432) was agreed to be
foregone and was written off as a bad debt. Ref Note
No. 7 of Additional Notes on Accounts to the financial
statements.
FUTURE GROWTH PLANS
As part of the plans the company announced entry
into two new categories -- Ready to Drink and Ready
to Cook products, in Feb’16.
Five variants of the Ready to Drink -- Orange, Mango,
Berry, Apple and Lemon Green Tea flavours -- and four
variants of Ready to Cook breakfast options -- Millet
Dosa Mix, Ragi Idli Mix, Gojji Avalakki and Kanda Poha
-- have been launched
Over the next four years, the company, Mr. Seelam
said, wanted to increase the acreage under organic
farming, carried out on a group farming basis, to 5
lakh acres from the existing 1.5 lakh acres.
The expansion plans would see the headcount going
up from 250 at present to 800.
FUNDING
Sresta has raised several rounds of funding from the
two PE funds, aggregating over Rs 60 crore. The PE
funds have been invested for several years now, and
could be looking for an exit soon. As per their
Shareholders Agreement, the company needs to give
them an exit by Dec’15, or be prepared for drag along
etc.
We show below (see tables below) some the
investment rounds done, and the price per share
implied in them.
As per the last round of dilution, in Jun’15, the price
per share was Rs 125. Multiplying this by fully diluted
shares (1.76 crore), we get a valuation of Rs 220 crore.
This implies a valuation of around 2x trailing sales.
