Sebi Permits AIFs to Retain Liquidation Proceeds Beyond Fund Life Under Conditions
Sebi has issued guidelines allowing Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs) to retain liquidation proceeds beyond their fund life under specific conditions, such as pending litigation, regulatory demands, or residual operational expenses. Retention requires consent from at least 75% of investors by value, with disclosures on amounts and duration. Additionally, Sebi introduced an 'Inoperative Fund' status for AIFs that have completed liquidation but have residual obligations, aiming to provide operational flexibility during winding-up and registration surrender.
