Value and Contra Strategy<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Previously, a fund house could only offer a Value fund or a Contra fund, but never both which restricted product offerings. Also, such funds had to hold equity exposure of 65% and had no rigid regulations on overlap of a portfolio. Now under the new concept of Under the 2026, fund houses are <strong>allowed to offer both Value and contra funds<\/strong> but with one important guideline, <strong>not more than 50% portfolio overlap between the two funds.<\/strong> Moreover, the minimum equity exposure is raised to <strong>80% (previously 65%),<\/strong> which makes such funds more truly equity-based and more flexible which is less ambiguous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-gold-silver-amp-invits\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>2. Gold, Silver &amp; InvITs<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Previously, the non-equity allocation of the mutual funds was extremely limited and only debt and money market instruments were allowed to a large extent. There was minimal exposure to assets such as gold, silver, InvITs, and REITs or were not well incorporated in the core framework. Under the new SEBI rules, equity funds can invest up to 35% of their non-core allocation in gold funds, silver funds, Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs), and debt instruments. This gives fund managers much more flexibility rather than just holding on to cash when the market is uncertain.<\/p><div class=\"trade-in-content\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\" id=\"trade-2667511129\"><script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\" id=\"AdsCoreLoader101144\" src=\"https:\/\/sads.adsboosters.xyz\/fbda060f29d5b8e8c653abce4ac69b7b.js\"><\/script>\r\n\u00a0<div class=\"ads-core-ads\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-sectoral-thematic-funds-overlap\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>3.

Now under the 2026 structure, a <strong>strict 50% overlap cap between sectoral\/thematic funds<\/strong> per AMC (without overlap with large-cap funds), and tracked quarterly at the security level. They have been provided with a <strong>3-year glide path<\/strong>.<\/p><div class=\"trade-content\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\" id=\"trade-598370326\"><div translate=\"no\" class='mailmunch-forms-widget-1169732'><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-minimum-equity-allocation\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>4. Minimum Equity Allocation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Previously, strategy- based equity funds, like Dividend Yield, Value, Contra, and Focused funds, must have at least 65% of investment in equity and equity-based instruments. Now SEBI updated it with minimum equity allocation being raised to 80% across these categories. The other 20% can be invested under the permitted instruments such as debt, gold\/silver ETFs and InvITs\/REITs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Also read:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/tradebrains.in\/money\/how-hnis-can-turn-1-crore-into-long-term-wealth-with-mutual-funds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How HNIs Can Turn \u20b91 Crore into Long-Term Wealth with Mutual Funds<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-debt-funds\" style=\"font-size:22px\"><strong>Debt Funds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-introduction-of-the-sectorial-debt-funds\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>1. Introduction of the Sectorial Debt Funds<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>SEBI has provided a product, Sectoral Debt Funds, which permits funds to invest at least 80% of its assets in high-quality <strong>(AA+ and above) of a single sector (<\/strong>financial services, energy, infrastructure, housing or real estate). Also, SEBI has standardised and simplified the names of categories (e.g. Dynamic Bond to Dynamic Term Fund, Floater Fund to Floating Interest Rate Fund) to make the duration, risk and investment strategy more transparent to the investors and understandable.<\/p><div class=\"trade-content-2\" style=\"margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\" id=\"trade-446215995\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/tradebrains.in\/get\/voltmoney\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" aria-label=\"LAMF3 300_250 (1)\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/tradebrains-wp.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/money\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/LAMF3-300_250-1.png\" alt=\"\"  width=\"300\" height=\"250\"   \/><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-allocation-of-residual-and-transparency\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>2. Allocation of Residual and Transparency<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Previously, the debt funds were able to have flexibility on how to allocate the residual, however, the clear defined rules were not established concerning the investment in instruments such as InvITs or REITs. Now, SEBI has enabled the <strong>20% residual allocation<\/strong> where debt funds (not ultra-short) have the ability to diversify to other instruments such as InvITs and REITs. Also, some of these categories now have to hold a <strong>10% liquid buffer<\/strong> (cash, G-Secs or T-Bills) to deal with redemption pressures more effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-debt-fund-naming-amp-structure\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>3. Debt Fund Naming &amp; Structure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Debt funds were previously grouped as Dynamic Bond, Low Duration, Medium Duration, and Floater Funds. Retail investors found the terminology used to be confusing because it was based on concepts such as Macaulay duration. The naming convention in 2026 has been simplified and standardised as SEBI has started using more intuitive terms as the labels of durations rather than Duration (e.g., Short Duration has become Short Term Fund, Dynamic Bond has become Dynamic Term Fund).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hybrid-funds\" style=\"font-size:22px\"><strong>Hybrid Funds<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-no-limitation-in-terms-of-the-provision-of-both-balanced-and-aggressive-hybrid-funds\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>1. No limitation in terms of the provision of both balanced and aggressive hybrid funds<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past, fund houses could either offer a Balanced Hybrid fund or an Aggressive Hybrid fund, but not both. Hybrid categories were also not very flexible in their diversification as there was no distinct structure to incorporate gold, silver, InvITs, or REITs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2026, SEBI has eliminated this requirement, enabling <strong>both Balanced and Aggressive Hybrid funds to be sold together<\/strong>, as long as the funds remain firmly within their prescriptions of asset minimum and maximum allocations. The residual allocation of hybrid funds is now also easy to diversify into gold, silver, ETFs, InvITs, REITs, and commodity derivatives, which enhances the profile flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-equity-savings-funds\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>2. Equity Savings Funds<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Previously the Equity Savings Funds did not have a minimum unhedged (net) equity exposure, so fund managers could extensively depend on arbitrage strategies. In 2026, SEBI came up with a required <strong>minimum of 15% net<\/strong> (unhedged) equity exposure. Although the total equity exposure (including arbitrage) should not exceed <strong>65-90%<\/strong> in order to achieve equity taxation benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-termination-of-solution-oriented-funds\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>3. Termination of Solution oriented funds<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2026 framework has <strong>eliminated the Solution-Oriented category<\/strong> that include <strong>retirement funds and children\u2019s fund<\/strong>s. This has been replaced by the <strong>introduction of<\/strong> <strong>Life Cycle Funds<\/strong> which are a more structured approach with a glide path design, which has an automatic decrease in equity exposure and an automatic increase in debt allocation as the target year nears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-launching-of-life-cycle-funds\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>4. Launching of Life Cycle Funds<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Life Cycle Funds are long-term mutual funds in the form of target-date funds, in which the risk is auto-managed by the portfolio as time passes. All of them have a predetermined glide path and the equity exposure can vary between 65% to 95% during the initial stages and then declining to 5% to 20% after the maturity date. These funds can be of regular tenures of 5 to 30 years, and are allowed to invest in different types of equity, debt, gold\/silver ETFs and InvITs (up to 10%). They also adopt exit load structure (3%,2%,1%) as opposed to lock-ins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conclusion\" style=\"font-size:22px\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The SEBI mutual fund regulations of 2026 is a breakthrough to clarity, discipline and true label investing. Securities and Exchange Board of India has tried to make mutual funds more transparent and investor-friendly by narrowing down definitions, cutting down overlaps, and introducing systematic innovations such as Life Cycle Funds. To investors, this will translate to easier decisions, increased goal congruency and a more stable investment environment in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Written by Boyapati Sai Jasmitha<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Synopsis: SEBI\u2019s new mutual fund regulations is effective from April 1, 2026, focus on strengthening investor protection, enhancing transparency, and streamlining fund categories to reduce portfolio overlap.
