Investment firm Alt introduces nation's unique Portfolio Management Service, solely dedicated toReal Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs) listed in India.
In the rapidly evolving world of finance, a new opportunity has emerged for Indian investors seeking stable income with lower risk than traditional equity products. Alt, a Series-B funded tech company, has launched ARIPS, a Portfolio Management Service (PMS) dedicated to investing in units of listed Indian Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs).
REITs and InvITs are regulated hybrid assets that provide investors with current income through quarterly distributions and capital gains through the increase in the value of underlying assets. These assets, which have been growing in popularity, are 33% less volatile than equity and have a low correlation of 0.23 to the Nifty 50.
Kunal Moktan, Co-founder of Alt, stated that ARIPS is designed to institutionalize access to REITs and InvITs for Indian investors. ARIPS aims to offer risk-adjusted returns and portfolio stability similar to those that global institutions have enjoyed for decades.
The government's focus on building roads and power assets, coupled with the growth of Global Capability Centers, is leading to significant returns on infrastructure. This, in turn, has led to the expansion of REITs and InvITs. REITs and InvITs in India are now managing over $80 billion in infrastructure assets, playing a critical role in the country's infrastructure monetization strategy.
Listed REITs have crossed a market cap of $17 billion, demonstrating the growing depth and acceptance of securitized commercial real estate. Alt, through its subsidiary Property Share, has launched the first Small and Medium REIT (SM REIT) scheme, PropShare Platina, and the second and largest SM REIT scheme, PropShare Titania. Alt's team has over $3 billion investment experience across real estate.
ARIPS provides passive income with downside protection, liquidity through listed vehicles, professional selection and active monitoring, and diversification from equity and credit-heavy portfolios. The minimum investment in ARIPS is Rs. 50 lakh.
Alt, with its offices in Mumbai, Bangalore, and London, has over 300,000 users and manages more than $250 million in assets. The platform, which pioneered the fractional investment platform model in India in 2015, offers investors access to a diverse range of alternatives including private credit, private real estate in India and the UK, public real estate in the US, Canada, UK, and India through listed REITs, Cat II AIFs, Portfolio Management Services, and an LRS fund out of GIFT City.
In conclusion, ARIPS presents a promising opportunity for Indian investors seeking stable returns in the real estate sector. With its focus on risk-adjusted returns, portfolio stability, and professional management, ARIPS is set to revolutionise the way Indian investors approach real estate investment.
