Blackstone sets up infra platform in India, names Ami Momaya as division MD

Blackstone has named Ami Momaya as managing director and leader of its newly launched infrastructure platform in India.

Before joining Blackstone, Momaya served as a managing director at KKR India, and earlier held senior investment positions at the National Infrastructure Investment Fund and Morgan Stanley Investment Management.

“Infrastructure remains a key focus for Blackstone, and we continue to identify strong opportunities throughout APAC’s rapidly expanding markets. By launching our platform in the region we enhance our capacity to deploy Blackstone’s global scale, expertise, and long‑term capital into the essential infrastructure that drives economic growth,” said Sean Klimczak, Global Head of Infrastructure at Blackstone.

“India stands out as one of the world’s most attractive infrastructure markets, propelled by robust economic growth, accelerating digital adoption, and ongoing policy support. I am eager to collaborate with Blackstone’s various teams to develop the firm’s infrastructure platform in India,” Momaya said.

Blackstone currently manages over $50 billion in assets in India and aims to double that exposure over the next few years. The firm already operates real‑estate and private‑equity divisions and, last year, introduced a private‑credit platform.
