In the three months ending on December 31, 2024, limited partners (LPs) shifted their focus from traditionally favoring India-focused private equity (PE), private credit, and venture capital (VC) funds to making larger commitments to public market-focused alternative investment vehicles. This marked the first time LP commitments to public market funds surpassed those made to PE and VC funds, highlighting a notable change in investment preference within the market.

SEBI proposes relaxed rules for illiquid PE, VC investments

India's market regulator, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), has proposed a relaxed framework for alternative investment funds (AIFs) and venture capital funds (VCFs) to handle their unliquidated investments after the fund's tenure expires. SEBI suggested extending the tenure of the fund instead of launching a new scheme for liquidation. Currently, VCFs have three months to liquidate investments, while AIFs have a 12-month window. SEBI has sought comments from the market before finalizing the rules. The changes aim to address tax issues and reduce the cost and time involved in the current process.
