The category II AIF, Bharat Bhoomi Fund, to be raised under the group’s fifth Bharat Value Fund series, will focus on execution-ready projects across high-opportunity corridors and core cities. The total target fund size includes a green shoe option worth Rs 1000 crore.
The fund will follow a diversified capital allocation strategy by investing in data centers, warehousing, hospitality, and renewable parks, sectors aligned with India’s evolving infrastructure, digital transformation, and sustainability priorities.
“As capital becomes more thoughtful, the demand for real assets with real outcomes has never been higher. Bharat Bhoomi Fund allows meeting that demand with discipline, data, and domain expertise,” said Madhu Lunawat, Founder and Director of The Wealth Company Asset Management.
The investments from this fund will target mid-to-premium residential, retail, plotted villas, and mixed-use developments across high-growth cities including Mumbai region, NCR, Pune, Bengaluru, Chennai, and Hyderabad. The fund will also focus on infrastructure-led corridors and plotted developments benefiting from upcoming connectivity and urban expansion.

The fund’s investment approach is designed to identify projects with clear land titles, regulatory readiness, and early exit visibility. It will target ready-to-launch assets that can move swiftly from investment to value creation.“With a robust pipeline of around 1,200 acres across six projects, Bharat Bhoomi Fund is well-positioned to deploy capital with speed, prudence, and precision,” Lunwat said.Investor demand for these new economic assets is growing, driven by India’s digital and green energy transition. These segments go beyond traditional real estate and represent economic infrastructure, reflecting the fund’s strategic focus.
The fund will be managed by Rakesh Kumar, who has overseen more than 50,000 real estate transactions and held leadership positions at Shell, Walmart, and Reliance.
He will be joined by Bhavya Bagrecha, who has executed institutional realty investments worth over Rs 2,500 crore and implemented India’s first REIT-style structure under SEBI’s VCF framework. Peter Sharp, former head of Walmart’s real estate operations in Asia with 35 years of experience in international real estate, will serve as an advisor.
