    Solution

    In a move to bridge the gap between traditional mutual funds and portfolio management services (PMS), SEBI introduced a new category called Specialised Investment Funds (SIFs), effective from April 1, 2025.  With a minimum investment threshold of ₹10 lakh and regulated under SEBI’s mutual fund framework, SIFs cater to individuals and institutions seeking differentiated exposure beyond conventional mutual fund offerings SIFs offer enhanced portfolio flexibility by allowing sophisticated strategies such as long short positions, sector rotations, and dynamic asset allocation.
