Alpha AMC launches India’s first AIF comparison platform

The Story in Brief

Alpha AMC has launched a digital platform to help investors compare India’s 1,992 SEBI-registered Alternative Investment Funds. Available on web, Android and iOS, AIF Platform lists strategy, target IRR, tenure, fees, risk classification and minimum investment in a standardised format across SEBI’s three categories.

The Hindu BusinessLine reports that total AIF commitments reached Rs 16.94 lakh crore in March 2026, including Rs 12.74 lakh crore in Category II funds. The platform also brings together fund data, manager profiles, performance metrics, benchmarks and regulatory disclosures. It is aimed at high-net-worth investors, family offices, institutions and founders. A further 183 scheme applications are pending under SEBI’s GARUDA framework.

The Indian Opinion

The easy narrative is that a comparison tool will make AIF investing as simple as choosing a mutual fund. It will not. Standardised fields can improve discovery, but target returns, fees and past performance still need careful checking against risk, liquidity and private-market valuations. The opposite claim, that more data alone solves transparency problems, is also weak. The useful test is whether investors can verify disclosures and compare realised returns after fees over time.
