India's market regulator, SEBI, is proposing significant measures to expand investment opportunities in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs). The moves aim to increase liquidity, facilitate their inclusion in major stock market indices, and boost retail investor participation. SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey indicated exploration of allowing REITs/InvITs to invest in more liquid mutual fund schemes and greenfield projects, alongside reclassifying REITs as 'equity' to attract more mutual fund flows.
