Anjali: Hi Mr. Khanna, Anjali here from Develop Schools. You filled out an enquiry about buying a running school — do you have two minutes?
Anil: Yeah yeah, go ahead.
Anjali: Thank you. So just to confirm — you're looking at acquiring an existing ICSE school in the NCR region. Is that right?
Anil: Yes. NCR specifically — Gurgaon, South Delhi, or Noida. ICSE preferred, CBSE acceptable. Already operational, ideally five-plus years old, with all approvals in place.
Anjali: Very clear brief. What investment range are you comfortable with for the acquisition?
Anil: Twenty-five crores plus. I can stretch to thirty-five if the asset is right. This is from my own funds, no leverage.
Anjali: That's a strong, decisive position. Are you operating any schools currently, or is this your entry into education?
Anil: Entry. I run an industrial gases business. I'm looking for a long-term, recession-resistant asset for my children to eventually run.
Anjali: That's a thoughtful succession framing — and education is one of the most resilient sectors for that. Quick question, have you considered the management transition piece? Most school owners selling don't want to fully exit immediately.
Anil: Yes, that's actually fine. I want the existing principal and key staff to stay for at least two years. I'll handle the strategic and financial side.
Anjali: Perfect. Mr. Khanna, I'll be honest — we have two acquisition mandates active in your range in NCR right now. One in DLF Phase 3 and one in Sector 50 Noida. Both ICSE, both operational. Rita handles all our M&A side personally — I'd like her to call you tomorrow morning if that's okay.
Anil: Yes, please. Morning is good — say ten thirty.
Anjali: Done. She'll call you at ten thirty tomorrow. Anything specific you'd like her to come prepared with?
Anil: Yes — three years of financials for any school she'd recommend, and the affiliation status report. I don't want surprises.
Anjali: Absolutely standard, we'll have both ready. Thank you Mr. Khanna, talk tomorrow.
Anil: Thanks Anjali.
