A presence in Kolkata will enable Alpen Capital to tap the opportunities present in the Eastern Indian market, the company said.

With our expertise in closing several complex transactions across the areas of M&A and equity in India over the past few years, we hope that we will work towards exceeding our clients’ expectations,” said Shiv Khazanchi, Managing Director and Head of India operations, Alpen Capital India Pvt Ltd.
