BETHESDA, Md.--()--India Globalization Capital, Inc. (NYSE American: IGC), a company engaged in the development and commercialization of cannabinoid-based alternative therapies for medical conditions including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and pain, announced that it raised $1.0 million in a private placement of restricted shares.

869,565 shares of newly issued unregistered common stock were sold at $1.15 per share. After fees and expenses, the net proceeds to IGC are approximately $1.0 million. The net proceeds from the offering are for marketing and working capital associated with the commercialization of Hyalolextm.

The investment is made by Bradbury Investment Fund limited, based in Hong Kong, through three of its Global Asset Funds. The investment is strategic as the fund can introduce the Company to potential acquisitions of global assets as more countries legalize hemp, cannabinoids, and cannabis. Further, the fund can also help the Company in introducing its products, including Hyalolextm, in foreign countries,” said Ram Mukunda, CEO of IGC.
