SEBI-mandated SIF threshold

Expense Ratio

Excl. brokerage, transaction cost & statutory levies

Exit Load

1% if redeemed ≤15 days; Nil after 15 days

Redemption

Daily

Why a ₹10 lakh minimum?

SEBI set this threshold for investors who understand complex strategies. It applies across all SIF strategies at one fund house, not per fund.

Can I redeem anytime?

Equity long-short SIFs offer daily redemption. Hybrid long-short SIFs are interval funds — redemption is only on specific windows, as set out above.

How is a SIF taxed?

Like mutual funds, a SIF is taxed only when you redeem — there is no annual capital-gains event as with PMS or AIF structures.
