Sebi extends deadline for angel funds to comply with accredited investor mandate
SEBI has extended the compliance deadline for existing Angel Funds to meet the accredited investor mandate until March 31, 2027. During this transition period, these funds are restricted from offering investment opportunities to more than 200 non-accredited investors. Newer Angel Funds, however, must continue to adhere strictly to the accredited investor requirement. This regulatory move aims to ensure investor protection while allowing existing funds adequate time to restructure their investor base in line with SEBI's Alternative Investment Fund (AIF) Regulations.
