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

• Accredited InvestorAn investor certified by an accreditation agency as meeting SEBI's income or net-worth tests, and therefore allowed into products on relaxed terms — including below the Rs 1 crore AIF floor.
• 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.
• Angel InvestorAn accredited investor, or key management personnel of an angel fund or its manager, who puts capital into start-ups and early-stage ventures through an angel fund.
• Commitment PeriodThe window in a closed-ended fund during which the manager may call capital against commitments — and the period over which management fee is charged on committed rather than invested capital.
• Continuing interestThe sponsor's or manager's own money locked into the fund — 2.5% of corpus or Rs 5 crore, whichever is lower, for Category I and II AIFs, and 5% or Rs 10 crore for Category III.
• First CloseThe date an AIF scheme declares it has raised enough commitments to proceed — the point from which tenure, management fees and set-up cost amortisation all start running.
