It is expected to cross Rs 4,500 crore of debt capital invested within the next 12 months. The fund, which was founded in 2016, is now in its seventh year and has delivered consistent returns on a quarterly basis.

Trifecta Capital currently invested more than Rs 3,100 crore of credit in 101 startups across Fund-I, Fund-II, and Fund-III.
