Curious about the firm. Not much on WSO other than 1-2 threads. Everyone at the firm seems to have gone to an M7 business school and/or T25 undergrad. How do they pull this much talent? What’s the comp? Thanks in advance chimps.

The most Indian 4 -5 bn fund size firm isn't even LG, it's Haveli. Haveli is founded by an Indian-American so the main guy is also Indian unlike LG. PE hours are long everywhere and there's no firm without work for no reason. 

As for LG itself; smart dudes there. A lot of first-time PE owned assets in their portcos they have must have decent sourcing. Clearly something is working given succesful fundraise in such a tough enviornment.

Edit: I stand corrected, Linden is the real most Indian firm.
