2011 was as much about making business happen as any other year despite deal business going down by 30% to $460 mln in the year in India and as usual we had a consultant reporting on growth from the India corneer of the world in Investment Banking as global focus shifts to fee adviisory business. India's share is a less than 8% of the Asia pie which itself yields a 4 1 mln lower than each corresponding deal in the US on average. US leads in investment banking deals this season as well

The largest component of the deal business in India continued to be Private Equity with VCC listing the Top 5 deals and the Top 5 exits in the big ticket deals that went down. 

Earning nearly $500 mln from fees may be still much lower for investment bankers to satisfy staffing for growth 5 years out esp as the region's deal yields depend on Pe which is currently fighting funding and legal wars in their global franchises as regulations circles around to make it tougher for them to ensure profitability on deals following numerous failures in high fashion and early / blocked exits in existing deals. 

It was especially happy for the bankers and the PE teams for gettin gthrough these deals in 2011
