Go beyond
long-only investing

SEBI-approved Specialized Investment Funds (SIFs) allow for tactical moves like shorting, dynamic asset allocation, and hedging, so your money works harder in bull, bear, and flat markets. Simpler, smarter, and made for the modern investor.

SIFs are Intelligent
by Design

Everything about them is built for investors
who seek more from their money.

Managed illustration

Managed by proven
market minds

SIFs are actively managed by experienced professionals and AMCs who meet SEBI's high bar, best positioned to navigate complexity and spot opportunities.

Tax efficient
like mutual funds

Maximise returns with a smarter tax structure. Gains from short positions are taxed like any other capital gains, unlike AIFs where they're taxed like business income.

Familiar experience,
upgraded thinking

Compare funds, start an SIP, and track your portfolio on-the-go. Investing in SIFs feels like second nature.

Engineered for
market cycles

SIFs are allowed to take short positions up to 25% of the fund value, allowing fund managers to act with conviction instead of just holding more cash.

Access that's actually accessible. Start with ₹10L

Start with ₹10L. Or less if you're accredited. Get exposure to long-short and multi-asset strategies, minus the entry barriers and paperwork of AIFs or PMS.

SIFs operate like Mutual Funds, through a SEBI-regulated pooled investment
structure, offering the same regulatory transparency you're used to.

New Strategies.

Sharper Outcomes.

SIF strategies are designed to find opportunity, with precision and an edge.

Equity Long-Short Fund

Where It Invests

At least 80% in equities and related instruments, with up to 25% short exposure via unhedged equity derivatives.

Strategic Edge

Think of this as a smarter Flexi Cap Mutual Fund. When markets turn choppy, your manager doesn’t just sit on cash, they act. By shorting specific stocks or sectors, they work to protect and grow your capital, even in down cycles.
