SEBI has, by way of a Circular dated April 30, 2026, introduced a fast-track mechanism for Private Placement Memorandums (‘PPMs’) of Alternative Investment Funds (‘AIF’), applicable to angel funds and AIF schemes other than ‘Large value fund for accredited investors’ (collectively, ‘non-LVF schemes’). AIFs may now launch new non-LVF schemes and circulate PPMs to investors 30 days after filing with SEBI, subject to prescribed disclosure and due diligence requirements.
