NEW DELHI: ChrysCapital is investing $ 8 million in Global Vantage, an
outsourcing company focused on receivables management like customer support
service, billing and businesses processes, in which ChrysCapital would have a 70

returns on our investment", said Bryan Faliero, Executive VP, OSI Inc.
