Sebi Eases AIF Compliance: Annual Reporting Replaces Quarterly Filings
•Sebi simplifies compliance reporting for Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs) by introducing an annual system and reducing quarterly filings.
•AIFs will now submit a comprehensive Annual Activity Report online via the SI Portal within 30 days of March end, starting FY March 2026.
•Limited quarterly reports in a revised format are due within 15 days after each quarter, with no separate report required for the March quarter.
•In a separate circular, Sebi revised operational and governance requirements for custodians to strengthen oversight and improve ease of doing business.
•Custodians not affiliated with banks must operate Sebi-regulated and non-Sebi-regulated services through separate SBUs with independent net worth.
