Our thoughts
.“The PE/VC juggernaut continues to roll, propelling both investments and exits to life-time highswithin the first eight months of the year. Till date in 2021, PE/VC investments have recordedUS$47.3 billion, almost at par with the previous high recorded in 2020 and exits have recordedUS$30.7 billion, 13.7% higher than the previous high recorded in 2018. August recorded US$10.7billion in PE/VC investments over 137 deals (US$2.2 billion, 83 deals in Aug 2020 and US$9.7billion, 77 deals in July 2021).
This rally has been driven by surging deal activity in the start-up space that recorded YTDinvestment value of US$15.3 billion, 31% higher than the previous all-time high recorded in 2019 anda sharp rebound in buyout investments which recorded US$13.7 billion after a subdued performancelast year. Further, deal activity has been dominated by pure play PE/VC investments, that accountedfor 85% of all PE/VC investments in YTD 2021. This is unlike earlier years which had witnessedsignificant investments in real estate and infrastructure asset classes as well.
While e-commerce sector has dominated investor interest in 2021, recording US$11 billion andaccounting for 23% of all investments in YTD 2021, financial services has quickly caught-up after alull post the pandemic to emerge as the top sector in August 2021, recording US$2.2 billion vs.US$1.2 billion recorded in August 2020 and US$435 million in July 2021. Technology sector wasnext in line recording US$1.6 billion vs. US$33 million in August 2020 and US$1.1 billion in July2021. Education is another sector that saw strong investor interest in August 2021, recording US$1.2billion vs. US$308 million in August 2020 and US$358 million in July 2021.
PE/VC exits too have eclipsed the previous all-time high to record US$30.7 billion in YTD 2021. YTD2021 has recorded 22 IPOs, second highest monthly number ever with many more in the pipeline.ReNew Power’s SPAC listing in August 2021, the first for an Indian company, potentially opens upnew exit avenues for investors. August recorded US$7.3 billion in PE/VC exits over 38 no. of deals(US$67 million, 17 deals in Aug 2020 and US$1.2 billion, 25 deals in July 2021).
As the percentage of vaccinated population rises, hopes of economic activity returning to pre-pandemic levels have increased. However, downside risks include a possible pandemic resurgencedue to new virus variants, inflation and any hawkish action by the US Federal Reserve to contain itand a potential spike in commodity prices (especially oil).
The better the question. The better the answer�.The better the world works.

Spotlight: key trends in PE-backed IPOs
► 2021 has been a good year for PE-backed IPOs in India, with 22 PE/VC backed IPO’s year-to-date (highestnumber in over a decade). YTD 2021, PE/VC backed IPOs have raised US$6.5 billion, second highest valueof IPO proceeds in a decade (after the US$11.6 billion high raised in 2017).
► Financial services and consumer sectors remain the top sectors for PE/VC-backed listings. In 2021,consumer sector is at the top with five IPOs followed by financial services and automotive with three IPOseach. A novelty among this year’s listings were two IPOs from the start-up e-commerce space and oneoverseas listing via the SPAC route. The successful response to these IPOs is expected to further catalyseother category leaders in the Indian start-up ecosystem to bulk-up and go the IPO/SPAC route as it has thepotential for providing higher valuations as well as liquidity.
► With the likes of Nykaa, Grofers, Flipkart, Pepperfry and other unicorns looking to go public, the pipeline ofIPO bound start-ups is quite strong. If equity markets remain buoyant, 2021 is expected to be a pathbreaking year for Indian start-ups.
► ReNew Power listed on the NASDAQ in August 2021 through a merger with RMG Acquisition Corp. II, ablank cheque SPAC, the first ever SPAC listing by an Indian company. This potentially opens up a newfundraising route for Indian companies as well as an additional exit avenue for early investors.
► Among PE/VC funds, Sequoia had the maximum number of portfolio companies that IPO’d (4 IPOs) whichinclude Indigo Paints, Stove Craft, Craftsman Automation and Zomato, followed by Temasek with threePortCo IPOs and Warburg and IFC which had two each.
