Man on his phone looking out of a high-rise window at a city skyline at dusk01/04Sound familiar?
  1. 01 · Sound familiar?

    You earn in dollars and wonder why everything you own is in rupees.

    As an NRI or globally minded investor, you want part of your wealth outside one currency, but opening accounts abroad means new platforms, paperwork and tax questions.

  2. 02 · What it's quietly costing you

    One currency, one country, one kind of risk.

    Keeping everything in rupees ties your future to one economy and one currency. Going abroad on your own can mean unfamiliar rules, tax surprises and no one to call.

  3. 03 · What we do about it

    We assess the fit first, then the fund.

    Your residency, the currencies you earn and spend in, and your overall allocation: then whether a GIFT City fund, regulated by IFSCA, is the right route compared with the alternatives.

  4. 04 · Where you'll be

    Global exposure with a plan behind it.

    A considered decision on whether, how much and which: with eligibility, minimums and tax treatment checked for your situation before you invest.

What you get

Everything handled, nothing sold in isolation.

GIFT City (Gujarat International Finance Tec-City) is home to India's International Financial Services Centre (IFSC), regulated by the International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA). Funds set up there are typically denominated in foreign currency such as US dollars, and can offer NRIs and eligible investors a structured route to global and Indian markets. Eligibility, minimum investment, tax treatment and structure differ by fund and by your residency, so suitability is always assessed individually.
