Gurgaon, 22nd Feb 2024: Spyre PropTech Venture fund, backed by Venture Catalysts and Neovon to launch the first phase of INR 400 Cr PropTech sectoral fund aimed at enabling major investments in over 30 Indian startups.

These investments will support innovative technology startups working towards propelling the real estate sector into the future. The fund has obtained an AIF Cat II license from SEBI, bolstered by an additional green-shoe option of INR 400 crore, enhancing its flexibility in the dynamic investment landscape.

CREDAI, the apex body of private Real Estate developers in India, is backing the first of its kind venture fund, to shape the largest PropTech fund in the country.

Boman Irani, President – CREDAI and MD – Rustomjee Group, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “As part of CREDAI’s vision, promoting technology in the Real Estate sector, nurturing change across business operations via adoption and integration of new-age technologies has been our priority. In sync with Hon’ble PM’s vision of promoting innovative technologies in the Housing & Real Estate sector, CREDAI has been hosting discussions on the important aspect of PropTech over the years and through this fund aims to convert these discussions into action.  To be a part of the next tech disruption, it is imperative to promptly participate in the evolutionary process. The ambit of technological advancements in the Real Estate sector is vast, and we are excited to witness Spyre PropTech’s emergence as the leader in this respect. We look forward to working with proptech startups, making it a win-win for all!”

Spyre has been anchored and co-founded by Neovon, a consortium of leading developers and has committed 20% of fund size as an anchor within the fund. Speaking on behalf of Neovon, the Co-Founder, Binitha Dalal said, “We are delighted to partner with the Spyre Proptech Fund along with Venture Catalysts, a strong partner with a focus on building and nurturing the proptech ecosystem. As a consortium of developers, we truly believe that the only way to find success is to build a win-win situation for proptech startups, and the industry as whole. Backed by the industry, this fund will have the perfect edge, leading to empowerment, innovation, and unprecedented growth.”

Venture Catalysts, India’s first multi-stage venture capital firm, is the seed investor and co-sponsor of Spyre. With a decade-long experience of supporting 250+ startups, they have consistently backed leading Proptech companies, establishing a diverse portfolio in India.

Anil Jain, General Partner, Spyre Proptech Venture Fund, emphasized the unique positioning of Spyre in the market, saying,PropTech is a whitespace we identified which offers tremendous opportunities for Indian entrepreneurs. India already has 6 unicorns in the segment yet we don’t have a focused fund for the sector.
