The Right Successor for Your Business

Preserving your legacy and taking it to the next level

About Us

Okintek Capital is one of India’s first Search Funds. A search fund is an investment firm that searches for, acquires, and actively grows a company for the medium term

The Search Fund model, which originated in 1984, is a proven and highly successful approach that has seen over 500 entrepreneurs raise over $5 billion to acquire and manage small and medium-sized businesses. Over the last 20 years, the model has returned approximately $15 billion to investors.

Why We Started

Your business isn’t just a company. It’s your sweat, your sacrifice, and your story. But when it’s time to move on, selling isn’t as simple as it should be—especially in India.
 
Most SMEs in India hit roadblocks when they try to sell. Regulations are tricky, family-owned businesses often lack a natural successor because the next generation has moved on to other opportunities, or simply isn’t interested in running the business. At the same time, larger players and institutional investors tend to overlook businesses of this size, seeing them as too small to fit their model.
 
We think of SMEs as Small & Mighty Enterprises — profitable, resilient, and full of untapped potential. At Okintek Capital, we’re not just another investment firm; we’re an entrepreneur-led search fund that helps business owners like you transition seamlessly. We don’t just buy businesses—we take care of them, ensuring they thrive under leaders who respect your employees, customers, and values.
