Dealcroft's Private Markets Deal Execution Program is a 3-month live deal internship in pre-IPO sourcing, SME capital, and angel syndication — built for serious finance aspirants who want to do the work, not watch slides about it.
Dealcroft is not a course. There are no pre-recorded videos, no lectures, no PDFs telling you what a balance sheet is. You already know that.
The Private Markets Deal Execution Program is a structured 3-month placement where you work alongside an active deal team — sourcing pre-IPO opportunities, building investor decks, screening SME companies, and learning how private capital actually moves in India.
You'll be doing the same work as a junior analyst at a boutique PE/IB house — with real feedback, real stakes, and a real network behind you.
Seats are limited to 35. Selection is based on a short application and aptitude test. We're looking for people who are sharp, hungry, and ready to put in the time.
Identify and evaluate unlisted equity opportunities. Build screening frameworks used on live deal flow.
Construct pitch materials for real companies. Learn what HNIs and family offices actually respond to.
Understand the SME IPO pipeline — from eligibility to merchant banker coordination to listing readiness.
Term sheets, valuation approaches, and capital table mechanics — on real transactions, not hypotheticals.
Final year or recently graduated, wanting actual deal experience to back up your degree.
Targeting IB, PE, or VC roles and need a structured bridge between academics and first jobs.
In banking, accounting, or ops who want to pivot toward the deal side of the table.
If you want certificates without doing the work, this is the wrong program. We have real deliverables, real feedback, and real expectations.
The cohort is led by a practitioner actively working across pre-IPO deal flow, SME capital advisory, and angel syndication in Indian private markets.
You won't learn from someone who teaches finance. You'll learn from someone actively executing it — daily, on live transactions.
Exposure to actual transactions in progress — not simulated case studies from textbooks.
Pre-IPO equities, SME IPO pipeline, and angel syndication — the India private capital ecosystem.
Access to an active deal network in Indian private markets on program completion.
