In April, private equity and venture capital investments dropped by 35% to USD 4.4 billion compared to USD 6.8 billion in the previous year, as per a report by EY and IVCA. Despite this decline, the number of deals rose by 56%, totaling 98. The caution among investors is attributed to global uncertainties and ongoing Indian general elections. Large deals above USD 100 million decreased by 48% to USD 3.1 billion across nine deals.
