FUNDRAISING IS HARD
Raising money for capital investment can be hard even for experienced professionals.
You toil hard to put together a great deal. Spotting the right opportunity, doing the necessary ground work and all the due diligence, building up a resourceful team – it’s all a commendable amount of hard work. But if the closing doesn’t
happen on time, the opportunity just slips out and all the hard work goes waste.
Success depends on 3 things:
- Your own proverbial ‘stakes in your game’.
- Strength of your numbers.
- Perceived VALUE in your story.
If your financial model doesn’t offer a clear assessment of the risks and returns, or your pitch story doesn’t quite convey the same enthusiasm as you feel, no one wants to risk their time and money behind you. Either it immediately gets you rejected or worse, their dilly-dallying begins.
You just have one shot to put your best foot forward and win your investors’ trust and money. Either you close the deal (on sane terms!) within a decent time span or you don’t. A few more failed attempts and you know how the cost meter is pressuring you to fold up.
Money is always looking for safe and profitable investments to flow into. Whether your deal qualifies as one is the question.

CASE STUDIES
RESIDENTIAL APARTMENT BUILDINGS [BUILD TO SELL]
Pinkstone wants to build a pair of posh apartment buildings for the homebuyers of Mysore. This model helps them analyse the deal over its lifecycle right from forecasting budgets, pricing the homes, planning the marketing and sales collection and ultimately paying off loans and distributing profits.
INDUSTRIAL WAREHOUSE + ROOFTOP SOLAR PV PLANT
Pinkstone wants to build a Grade A industrial warehouse in Kasara that could also harness the Sun to generate a side income from selling power to its tenant power consumers. This portfolio model analyses these 2 businesses separately in good depth. Following a lifecycle approach, you will see how the budgets are set, how various elements of operations are forecasted and finally how the business liquidation is planned.
Padmaa and I collaborate frequently on our projects. Cashflow management issues always crop up unawares. In working with Padmaa, we uncovered and addressed several critical aspects of our project during the process of financial modeling. We might have brushed them off otherwise. Raising money became much easier. I became more aware of my strengths and in control of my deal during my meetings with my bankers and equity partners. I really appreciate Padmaa’s in-depth understanding of real estate finance and her great work ethics.

Techbridge Petrotraining (India)
Padmaa’s no-nonsense approach and her patient detailed 3 rd person analysis of our deal was just what we needed. Her deep insights helped us think through and figure out the best possible ways of doing the deal. Padmaa is a very good listener and was very generous in offering support long after the work was over. She is very good at explaining her work and transferring knowledge. I felt as though, I had myself created my financial models. It’s been a nice collaborating experience. I look forward to working with her in all our projects.
