About
Edelweiss Private Equity is the private equity arm of the Edelweiss Group, an Indian diversified financial services company.
APAC secondaries activity
Edelweiss PE was reported alongside Motilal Oswal PE as a party in discussions for a Zepto secondary sale in 2025 β two of India's most active domestic private equity investors circling the same deal.
What a transaction here looks like
An Indian alternatives manager sits on both sides of this market: raising vehicles that provide liquidity to other investors, and holding positions of its own that eventually need an exit. India's growing base of domestic institutional capital is what makes locally-raised secondary vehicles possible at all β previously that capital came almost entirely from abroad.
Who sits on the other side
Counterparties include domestic funds and family offices seeking liquidity, and international buyers looking for Indian exposure without underwriting individual companies. The growth of a domestic buyer base is the structural change worth tracking, because it determines whether Indian sellers must wait for foreign capital to arrive.
