The definition above is the short version. A full explanation — how it works, a worked example and the exam traps — is still being written. In the meantime the chapter below covers it in context.

Written up from the same chapter

• Angel FundA sub-category of Category I AIF, registered with SEBI specifically as an angel fund, which raises money from angel investors and invests it in start-ups deal by deal rather than through schemes.
• BetaHow sharply a share moves relative to the market index — beta 1 moves with the index, above 1 amplifies it, below 1 dampens it. The standard measure of systematic risk.
• Category I AIFThe AIF category for funds the government or a regulator treats as socially or economically desirable — venture capital, angel, SME, social impact, infrastructure, special situation and CDMDF funds.
• Category II AIFThe residual AIF category: anything that is neither Category I nor Category III and takes no fund-level leverage beyond a narrow temporary carve-out — private equity, private debt and fund-of-funds.
• Category III AIFThe AIF category for funds running diverse or complex trading strategies with leverage — hedge funds and their kin — and the only category denied tax pass-through status.
• Corporate Debt Market Development FundA close-ended Category I AIF, formed as a trust with a 15-year tenure, that buys investment-grade corporate bonds from debt mutual fund schemes when SEBI declares a market dislocation.
