Stones Infra Projects has raised debt finance

This transaction marked a successful debt raise to fund Oleander Farms’ growth. Strategically located in Karjat between Mumbai and Pune, this five-star resort caters to luxury travelers, MICE (meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions), weddings and large-scale events. The rising demand for additional room inventory to host sizable gatherings, along with the scarcity of large-format resorts in the region, were key drivers behind raising capital to accelerate expansion.
