Elara Securities, Inc.

Elara Capital Plc’s journey in the global financial markets began in 2002 when Raj Bhatt and a clutch of finance professionals teamed up to set up a firm with an entrepreneurial DNA and a strong value system. The strategic intent was clearly to serve the growing needs of capital-hungry Indian companies and fulfill their quest to reach out to global markets. The beginning of Elara’s operations thus coincided with the upturn in the global economy and the recognition of emerging markets like India as a separate investment class by the international investor community. After a decade in business now, Elara has emerged as one of the leading investment banks for Indian companies looking at overseas fund raising, and was ranked amongst the top investment banks in the Bloomberg league tables. Since the first deal in 2003, Elara has successfully completed over 60 fund raising assignments. Being sector agnostic Elara has helped raise money for companies from various sectors such as aviation, auto components, construction & infrastructure, hospitality, information technology, logistics, media, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals and industrials.
