Several Indian small and medium enterprises from the power, natural resources and oil & gas sectors are lining up to tap London’s Alternative Investment Market (AIM) to raise funds. “Indian equity market is going through extreme volatile times, and fund raising has become very difficult. London’s AIM market offers a good opportunity for small and medium companies with sound business models to raise funds in less time compared with the 6-12 months required in the domestic market,” Nikhil Bahel, managing director of investment banking division at Religare Capital Markets, told Financial Chronicle. In the recent past, companies such as Essar Energy, KSK Power Ventures, Greenko Group and Hirco Group successfully raised funds and got listed on AIM.

AIM performance over the next 12 months. Baker Tilly has released its annual survey
