The company reported strong financial performance with a year-on-year profit growth of 35.5%, and a revenue increase of 65% to Rs673 million, driven by its UAE operations. With its robust growth strategy, NiFCO aims to diversify revenue streams by expanding its market across India and GCC states, positioning itself as a global asset manager targeting $1 billion AUM by 2028. The firm completed substantial exits in 2024, delivering high internal rates of return through strategic divestments and marquee exits.
