My portfolio just crossed Rs 1.8 Cr. Should I move Rs 50L to a PMS or try these new SIFs?

A SIF is the exact bridge designed for a portfolio of your size because it gives you access to advanced hedging strategies without the massive Rs 50 Lakhs commitment of a PMS. Historically you only had two extremes when it came to investing your money. You could do mutual funds starting at Rs 500 or you had to lock up Rs 50L for a PMS and Rs 1cr for an AIF.

SIFs fix this gap perfectly because the minimum entry is just Rs 10L per AMC per PAN. Once you cross that initial Rs 10L threshold with a specific fund house, you can even allocate smaller amounts like Rs 1L or Rs 2L into their other SIF schemes for internal diversification.

If your total corpus was between Rs 50L and Rs 1.5cr, blocking Rs 10L in a single specialized strategy would be a disproportionate risk. Since you have crossed the Rs 1.5 to Rs 2cr mark, you are in the exact sweet spot for these funds.

You get exposure to long-short strategies and mid-cap niches that regular mutual funds cannot fully capture. You achieve all of this downside protection without locking up a massive chunk of your net worth in a single PMS.
