OUR JOURNEY
Our Story
For over 20 years, we have invested in land across Karnataka, not as brokers, not as speculators, but as long-term wealth builders.
Long before SQFT Fund existed, we were quietly identifying high-potential land opportunities, buying early, holding with conviction, and exiting at the right time. Over the years, this approach led to multiple exits delivering 3x to 15x appreciation, even during periods when the stock market was flat, volatile, or negative.
This isn't theory. This isn't “startup optimism.” This is lived experience backed by numbers.
PROVEN TRACK RECORD
A Legacy of Proven Exits, Now Made Accessible
Across multiple high-growth corridors, our investments have appreciated consistently, often outperforming NIFTY and SENSEX returns by 30-70% year after year.
These numbers show a simple truth: Real estate has consistently outperformed the stock market when you know where to look.
OUR PLATFORM
From Personal Expertise to a Platform for Everyone
After nearly two decades of investing for ourselves, we realized something important.
While early-stage real estate can be highly valuable, access to such opportunities and the expertise required to evaluate them remains limited.
That is why SQFT Fund was created: a platform that applies a rigorous, proven, family-tested investment approach and makes it accessible to a select group of investors - safely, transparently, and professionally.
We invested our own money for 20 years. With SQFT Fund, we are sharing these opportunities with fellow professionals looking for real, transparent wealth creation.

After decades of corporate success, Koushik recognized a familiar pattern—professionals working hard and saving diligently, yet missing out on the wealth creation that real estate quietly delivers to the few with access and insight. He founded SQFT Fund to change that by building a transparent, credible, and institution-grade platform that enables professionals to invest early in curated, high-quality real estate opportunities.
