An LTV ratio capped at 55% indicates that for every ₹100 of debt the fund extends to a developer, it secures collateral worth at least ₹181. This substantial asset cover provides a deep cushion against real estate market corrections, ensuring capital protection even if underlying project valuations drop sharply.
The fixed 3-to-5-year horizon perfectly matches the construction, monetization, or leasing timelines of physical real estate developments. By operating as a close-ended fund, it eliminates sudden redemption pressures, allowing the fund manager to lock in capital and maximize asset value until natural project maturity.
In yield-optimizing strategies, the fund concentrates on commercial assets that are already 100% completed and pre-leased to high-grade corporate tenants. This entirely eliminates construction delays and leasing risks, ensuring the fund receives stable, predictable rental inflows to distribute to investors from day one.
The fund enforces strict diversification rules, capping exposure to any single developer or project at 10% of total capital. This quantitative guardrail ensures that a default or construction delay at one specific site cannot severely damage the overall portfolio’s net asset value.
Under SEBI rules, Category II Alternative Investment Funds are classified as sophisticated, high-risk private pool vehicles. The ₹1 Crore baseline investment requirement acts as a regulatory filter to ensure the product is accessible only to institutional investors and ultra-high-net-worth individuals who can bear structural liquidity locks.
