# How can I fit this table in landscape orientation?

I would not try to typeset this table in landscape mode, since doing so would be treating the symptoms rather than the cause of the table's underlying problem. The problem is that you're not allowing line breaks in columns 4, 5, and 6.

To fix this problem, I suggest you switch from a tabular to a tabularx environment and allow line breaking in all cells of column 4 and in headers of columns 5 and 6. I would also (a) align the numbers in columns 1, 5, and 6 on their explicit or implicit decimal markers and (b) move the unit legend (INR Cr) to separate lines.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tabularx,ragged2e,siunitx}
\newcolumntype{L}{>{\RaggedRight}X}  % flush-left, not justified
\newcommand\mC[1]{\multicolumn{1}{L}{#1}}
\sisetup{group-four-digits=true} % show thousands separator for 4-digits numbers

\begin{document}

\begin{table}
\setlength\tabcolsep{3.5pt}    % default: 6pt
\setlength\extrarowheight{2pt} % for a less-cramped look

\begin{tabularx}{\textwidth}{@{}
S[table-format=4.2] c l L *{2}{S[table-format=5.2]} @{}}
\hline
{\bfseries Amount} &
\bfseries Round &
\bfseries Stage &
\bfseries Investors &
\mC{\bfseries Pre Money Valuation} &
\mC{\bfseries Post Money Valuation} \\
{(INR Cr)} & & & & {(INR Cr)} & {(INR Cr)} \\ % units on separate line
\hline
417     & 8 & Growth-PE & IIFL VC, Sequoia Capital India &       & 30496 \\
1001.82 & 7 & Late      & Wellington Management, Faering Capital, TVS Capital, Others          & 25971.15 & 26972.97 \\
1492.2  & 6 & Growth-PE & IIFL VC, Faering Capital, TVS Capital, Sequoia Capital India, Others &          & 26078.5  \\

• I have another table which that I've tried to replicate the above code for. But it isn't exactly working

• @Jimi13ABC - Sadly, but probably not surprisingly, my mind-reading skills are utterly worthless. Unless you post the code for the second table, the odds that I -- or anyone else, for that matter -- will be able to help you meaningfully are decidedly poor. Please post a new query, with the code of the second table you wish to fix. Thanks.

• Hey, thanks for solving the second query! This saved me a bunch of time. But I'm rather new to working with Latex. Any recommendations for learning material on how I can effectively learn how to deal with importing various types of tables ?
