What Is Private Placement?

Private placement is the process of raising capital from a select group of investors, without going through a public offering. For most Indian mid-market companies, it is the most practical, cost-effective, and speed-efficient way to raise growth capital.

The challenge is access and execution. Most founders don't know where to find the right investors, how to structure the deal compliantly, or how to negotiate terms that protect long-term ownership while securing the capital they need.

Asset Light Ventures runs this entire process. We source the investors, structure the instrument, prepare the documentation, manage the legal and regulatory workstream, and sit across the table in negotiations, so you can focus on running the business.

Instruments We Place

Compulsorily Convertible Debentures
CCDs, hybrid debt-to-equity for growth rounds
Equity Shares (CCPS / CPS)
Preference shares with investor protections
Non-Convertible Debentures (NCDs)
Fixed-income debt for cash-generative businesses
Optionally Convertible Debentures
OCDs, flexibility for investor and founder
The Process

From Mandate to Close

We manage every step, reducing the founder's transaction burden while maximising outcome quality.

Mandate & Structuring

We agree the mandate scope, instrument type, target quantum, and investor criteria. We build the pitch book and financial model together.

Investor Targeting

We identify and approach the right investors from our network, HNIs, family offices, GCC investors, and institutional funds aligned with your sector and stage.

Negotiation & DD

We manage the term sheet negotiation, due diligence process, and investor Q&A, protecting your interests while keeping the deal on track.

Regulatory Close

We coordinate the legal documentation, filings, and SEBI-compliant closing, with LawCrust handling all transaction legal work within the group.

Why It Matters

What This Does For Your Business

Access to the Right Capital

Not all capital is equal. We match you with investors whose return expectations, involvement style, and sector knowledge align with your growth trajectory, not just whoever responds first.

Founder Protection

We negotiate instrument terms that protect your ownership, governance rights, and future fundraising flexibility, avoiding the investor-friendly provisions that founders regret years later.

Speed to Close

A well-run placement process closes faster than a self-managed one. We eliminate delays by anticipating investor objections, managing documentation in parallel, and maintaining deal momentum.

SEBI Compliance Built In

India's private placement regulations are complex and evolving. Our process is built around SEBI compliance from day one, avoiding the filing errors and structural missteps that can unwind a deal post-close.

Legal-Finance Integration

Because LawCrust sits within our group, the transaction legal work is handled by the same team that built the deal structure, eliminating the information gaps that typically slow down external legal coordination.

Repeat Relationship

We build relationships designed to outlast the first transaction. Many of our clients return for Series B, debt refinancing, and M&A advisory, because they know we understand their business deeply.
