Does anyone know any searchers in India who might be interested in acquiring a business in Jaipur?
I have come across a distribution business based in Jaipur up for sale.

I will share the details with the relevant person. Comment or DM me.

Makes complete sense ^redacted‌ & ^redacted‌
You guys know much well about the space.

If you come across anyone else who might be interested in a business like this, do share the reference.

The business owner who is looking to sell of his business has no one to carry forward the business after him, thus he is looking to sell.

However, it is fairly small business as compared to the usual deals that are listed out here. Approximately 6-7 Cr asking price.

So any recommendation would be great.

Thanks for the tag Luke. My back office is in India and I travel between US and India but our acquisition targets are in the US. Indian small businesses are way too complicated for even for the Indians living in India, I once evaluated a deal with $1mm in EBITDA, $5.6mm sales (INR 47 Cr) with off-balance sheet outstanding loans to the tune of 300 Cr (INR) - approx $35mm in "outstanding loans" which were never part of balance sheet or CIM. I have accepted the fact that I do not have any means or tools to evaluate small businesses in India and if anyone thinks QoE is the right way to evaluate a deal in India - they would be in for a big suprise!
