SILA Solutions Pvt. Ltd, a property and project management company, has raised Rs 56 crore ($7.84 million) from multi-stage investment firm Norwest Venture Partners.
The company will use the funds to give exit to its early investors and make strategic investments and acquisitions, SILA said in a statement on Thursday. It, however, did not disclose who the investors were.
The firm had raised Rs 3 crore from JCK Infrastructure Development Ltd, KAP Steel Ltd and Hubertus during 2014-15, according to VCCEdge, the research arm of Mosaic Digital.
SILA was started by Vora siblings, Sahil and Rushabh in 2010. The company was started with an initial capital of Rs 50 lakh from Harresh Mehta, promoter of Mumbai-based private realtor Rohan Lifescapes.
The company is managing over 30 million square feet of assets and has a presence in over 75 cities. It has clients across various sectors including manufacturing, retail, hospitality, financials, commercial and residential real estate.
“With the use of technology and SOPs (standard operating procedures), SILA is executing with a differentiated approach to capture the very large services market opportunity in India," said Shiv Chaudhary, managing director, Norwest Venture Partners.
SILA had acquired a 51% stake in Envocare Pest Control Services in 2015.
