360 ONE Asset has moved swiftly to capitalise on growing investor interest in real assets, raising nearly Rs. 2,300 crore in just four months through its Category II Alternative Investment Fund. The rapid fundraising and fast-paced deployment underline the rising appeal of infrastructure and income-generating commercial assets among high-net-worth investors looking for steady returns and long-term value.
Announced on December 15, 2025, the fund is focused on opportunities across infrastructure and commercial real estate, with an emphasis on assets that can generate stable cash flows while also offering scope for capital appreciation over time. In a market marked by volatility across traditional asset classes, real assets are increasingly being seen as a dependable and inflation-resistant option.
What stands out is the speed at which the fund has put money to work. A large portion of the committed capital has already been deployed, with the remaining amount expected to be invested over the coming months. This early deployment reflects both strong deal availability and the platform’s ability to execute transactions efficiently.
Key investments include deals with Knowledge Realty Trust, Vertis Infra Trust, Maple Infrastructure Trust and Brookfield’s Bluegrass Business Park. These transactions highlight the fund’s focus on institutional-quality assets and partnerships with some of the world’s most respected asset managers, including Brookfield, Blackstone and CDPQ. Such collaborations lend credibility and scale to the platform’s investment strategy.
According to the company, the fund’s approach blends cash-yielding core assets with late-stage development projects. This mix is designed to balance regular income with opportunities for higher upside, creating a diversified portfolio that can perform across different market cycles. The idea is not just to chase growth, but to do so with discipline and a clear eye on risk-adjusted returns.
The real assets platform also draws strength from 360 ONE Asset’s broader investor network. Alongside the AIF, additional capital has been mobilised from ultra-high-net-worth individuals and select family offices across India. As of September 2025, the platform’s assets under management stand at around Rs. 10,000 crore, reflecting its growing footprint in the alternatives space.
Niraj Murarka, Chief Investment Officer for Real Assets at 360 ONE Asset, said the strong investor response points to rising confidence in real assets as a long-term allocation. He noted that early deployments with top-tier partners demonstrate the depth of the platform’s sourcing network and its focus on disciplined execution.
As infrastructure development and demand for quality commercial assets continue to grow in India, platforms that can combine scale, speed and strong partnerships are likely to stay in demand. For investors seeking income, stability and measured growth, real assets appear to be firmly back in focus.
