Overview

The Tata Opportunities Fund (TOF) is a third party private equity fund which invests in select Tata group entities as well as other independent Indian businesses. TOF's investees benefit both from its capital as well as from access to the Tata group's global reach and wide ranging long established industry presence. The fund is sector and stage agnostic and invests in both minority and control deals. TOF completed the final close of its latest fund in 2013 with commitments of ~US$ 600 million from a select list of marquee global investors.

The Fund - which has a medium to long term investment horizon and is backed by a team of professionals with a mix of investment and operational experience, can invest through a mix of growth capital and buy-out strategies with typical deals in the range of US$ 30 - 200 million. For larger deals, the Fund has the capability to mobilise larger amounts by way of co-investments from its investors.

The Fund seeks to draw on Tata's strong track record of generating substantial returns for its shareholders, which is perhaps unmatched in the Indian context.
