Benefits of Investing in Alternative Investment Fund
Portfolio Diversification
It offers unique asset allocation and diversification of portfolio. The number of asset classes available for investment is more than most of the other investment vehicles, and their performance is uncorrelated to the stock market. Thus, there is more flexibility for fund managers while building a portfolio.
Hedge Against Volatility
The investments undertaken in an AIF are unrelated or less related to the stock market. Thus, their returns do not fluctuate owing to the ups and downs in the broader market. Furthermore, as AIFs do not allocate funds to investments that trade publicly, unit-holders do not have to tolerate share price fluctuations. So, if you are looking to stabilize your portfolio, AIFs are one of the best investment opportunities
Reasonable Returns
As AIFs tap into a broader investment universe, they can offer high returns. Due to their investment strategy, these funds are a better source of passive income compared to many traditional instruments like debentures or bonds. Furthermore, due to minimal dependency on the stock market, the chances of return fluctuations are also less.
Benefits of Investing in Portfolio Management Services
- Customized portfolio tailor-made for various investors to suit the investment objective of investors based on their risk appetite and investment horizon.
- Investor directly holds stocks in his demat account. Everyday transactions are intimate to investors.
- PMS portfolios are focused portfolios constructed with well-researched 15 to 20 stocks.
- Unlike mutual funds, the PMS portfolio manager has the flexibility to allocate any weightage to a single stock.
- The minimum investment in PMS is Rs.50 lacs by way of cash or stock or a combination of both.

Key Advantages of AIF
One of the key advantages of AIFs in India is their potential for high yields, with returns ranging from 12% to 18% per annum, as reported by Rurash Financials. This makes AIFs an attractive option for investors who are looking to diversify their portfolios and generate above-average returns.
In recent years, AIFs have become more accessible to retail investors, with the SEBI introducing a framework for ‘small’ AIFs with a minimum investment of INR 1 crore in 2019. Additionally, AIFs have been an attractive option for foreign investors looking to invest in the Indian market, with around 60% of the AUM in AIFs managed by foreign investment managers.
According to a recent report, the Indian AIF industry has seen remarkable growth over the last decade, with the assets under management (AUM) growing from INR 10,000 crores in 2012 to INR 1.4 lakh crore in September 2021. Besides, this trend is expected to continue, with the AIFs industry in India projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 18.5% from 2020 to 2025.
This growth is attributed to the advantages of AIFs, which includes:
Their ability to invest in a wide range of assets, from real estate and infrastructure to private equity and distressed assets. This diversification can help investors to mitigate risks and achieve potentially higher returns.
Additionally, AIFs can offer unique investment opportunities that are not available in traditional markets, such as start-up companies and alternative energy projects.
Another key advantage of AIFs is their transferability. Unlike traditional investments, AIFs can be transferred from one investor to another, providing greater liquidity for investors. This can be particularly useful for investors who want to exit their investments before the end of the fund's term.
In 2012, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) introduced regulations governing AIFs, which helped to create a more transparent and accountable industry. Additionally, the introduction of the Alternative Investment Fund Managers Regulations in 2012 has provided greater clarity and accountability for AIFs in India.
AIFs also offer immense flexibility in terms of structure and investment strategies. Unlike traditional investment vehicles, AIFs can be structured as trusts, limited liability partnerships, or companies, and can adopt a wide range of investment strategies such as long-only, long-short, event-driven, and more. This adaptability allows AIFs to cater to the specific needs and risk appetite of investors, making them highly customizable investment options.
AIFs are subject to fewer regulatory restrictions compared to traditional investment vehicles, which gives fund managers more leeway to pursue potentially profitable opportunities. As AIFs are not constrained by the limitations of publicly traded securities, they offer the potential for higher returns, making them an attractive investment avenue for investors looking to diversify their portfolios. Furthermore, AIFs are required to disclose their investment strategy, fees, and other relevant information to investors, ensuring that investors have complete information about their investments.
