The Wealth Company Asset Management Pvt Ltd, part of the Pantomath Group, has announced the launch of the Rs 2,000-crore Bharat Bhumi Fund.
This includes a Rs 1,000-crore Category II AIF with a Rs 1,000-crore greenshoe option, under its fifth Bharat Value Fund Series, focusing on investments in the real estate sector.
The fund is led by Rakesh Kumar, who brings experience from over 50,000 real estate transactions and has held senior roles at Shell, Walmart, and Reliance.
He is joined along with Bhavya Bagrecha, who has managed institutional real estate investments worth over ₹2,500 crore and is credited with introducing India’s first REIT-style structure under SEBI’s VCF regulations.

Peter Sharp, former head of Walmart's Asia real estate operations, has joined the team as an advisor. He brings over 35 years of global experience in the real estate sector, the company said.
The Bharat Bhoomi Fund will focus on ready-to-launch assets that can quickly transition from investment to value creation. With a strong pipeline of around 1,200 acres across six projects, the fund is well-equipped to deploy capital efficiently and strategically, the company said.
This launch marks an expansion of The Wealth Company's investment scope and offers a natural pathway to increase exposure to real assets, it added.
"As capital becomes more thoughtful, the demand for real assets with real outcomes has never been higher. Bharat Bhoomi Fund allows meeting that demand with discipline, data, and domain expertise. The wealth company's investment ethos is now extending into India's real estate space," Madhu Lunawat, Founder and Director of The Wealth Company Asset Management, said.
The fund will adopt a diversified capital allocation strategy, to invest in sectors like data centres, warehousing, hospitality and renewable energy parks—areas aligned with India’s infrastructure growth, digital transformation, and sustainability goals, the company said.
It noted rising investor interest in these emerging economic assets, driven by the country’s shift toward digitalization and green energy.
Additionally, the fund will invest in mid-to-premium residential, retail, plotted villas, and mixed-use developments across high-growth cities such as Mumbai (MMR), NCR, Pune, Bengaluru, Chennai, and Hyderabad.
