AIF for NRI

In the dynamic landscape of the contemporary Indian economy, both domestic and international residents find themselves presented with a diverse array of investment opportunities. While mutual funds and stock markets have long been favored choices, there is a growing trend among investors, especially Persons of Indian Origin (PIO), Non-Resident Indians (NRI), and Overseas Citizens of India (OCI), towards Alternative Investment Funds (AIF).

With a GDP projected to surpass China and claim the second-largest position globally by 2050, India currently holds the sixth spot in the world’s GDP rankings. This signifies a promising alternative for NRI investors. With a population exceeding 130 crores, India offers vast potential for lucrative investments across various industries.

Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs) facilitate investments from all categories of Indian investors, including NRIs, by issuing units. However, geographical constraints may apply, as per the compliance policy of the Asset Management Company (AMC). To embark on an AIF investment journey, investors need to meet the following eligibility criteria:

• AIFs must boast a minimum corpus of Rs. 20 crores, reduced to Rs. 10 crores if angel investors are involved.
• A maximum of 1000 investors is allowed per plan.
• The management or sponsor should maintain a continuous stake of Rs. 5 crores or less than 2.5% of the initial corpus.

India’s GDP has witnessed substantial growth, securing its sixth global ranking. Projections for the next thirty years anticipate India climbing to one of the top two global economies. The economy is expected to expand at approximately 6.5% to 7% over the next five years, mitigating investment risks through economic stability. A stable central government and political stability further contribute to minimizing market volatility.

Traditionally open to resident Indians, Indians residing abroad, and foreign investors, Alternative Investment Funds have a prescribed limit for regular investors at Rs. 1 crore. Angel investors are required to make a minimum investment of Rs. 25 lakhs, a criterion also applicable to top management, including directors, fund managers, and other AIF employees.

For NRIs seeking investment opportunities in India, the vastness of the Indian economy holds the potential for substantial returns.
