Key Features

Gift City funds are globally focused investment vehicles set up under the International Financial Services Centre Authority (IFSCA). Designed to offer Indian and NRI investors seamless global exposure, they provide:

• Global Investment Access
  Structured as offshore funds, they allow investment into international equities, bonds, and diversified global opportunities.

• Robust Regulatory Oversight
  Governed by IFSCA, ensuring high standards of transparency, compliance, and investor protection.

• Experienced Fund Management
  Managed by seasoned fund managers with deep expertise in global research and asset selection.

• Multi-Currency Investment Options
  Available in several currencies, enabling easy participation for NRIs, OCIs, and global investors without operational hurdles.

Gift City has emerged as a preferred gateway for NRIs and OCIs looking to invest internationally with ease. Key opportunities include:

• Offshore Banking & Foreign Currency Deposits
  Banks at Gift City offer foreign currency accounts and offshore deposit products with competitive returns.

• Global Equities & Fixed Income
  Through the IFSC exchange, investors gain direct access to international stocks, bonds, and global market instruments.

• Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs)
  AIFs based in Gift City offer exposure to equity, debt, private equity, real estate, and venture capital strategies across global markets.

• Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs)
  Listed REITs provide low-cost, transparent entry into India’s real estate market with institutional-grade governance.

For many NRIs, investing in India or global markets often involves multiple layers—repatriation rules, currency conversions, tax considerations, and operational complexity. Gift City Funds simplify this by creating a single, internationally aligned platform that feels familiar to global investors.

In practical terms, Gift City acts like India’s offshore financial hub, allowing NRIs to access global investments under a framework designed for cross-border capital.

• Invest like an offshore investor, while staying connected to India
  Gift City funds are set up outside traditional Indian domestic regulations, giving them flexibility similar to offshore funds Singapore or Dubai—while still being India-linked.

• No unnecessary currency friction
  Many Gift City funds accept investments directly in foreign currencies, reducing repeated currency conversions and operational hassle.

• Designed for NRIs and global families
  Documentation, onboarding, and fund structures are aligned to NRI and OCI needs rather than domestic-only investors.

• Access global markets from one platform
  Instead of opening multiple overseas investment accounts, Gift City allows consolidated exposure to international equities, bonds, and alternative assets.

Gift City Funds are particularly suited for:

• NRIs and OCIs based in the Australia, NZ, US, UK, Middle East, and Singapore

• Global families looking to diversify beyond their country of residence

• Investors wanting international exposure without managing multiple jurisdictions

• Those planning long-term wealth allocation, succession, or repatriation flexibility

Gift City investments are not meant to replace Indian mutual funds or PMS. Instead, they complement your existing portfolio by:

• Adding global diversification

• Reducing home-country concentration risk

• Providing currency diversification

• Offering exposure to assets and markets unavailable locally

At House of PMS, we help NRIs identify:

• Whether Gift City suits their residency and investment objectives

• Which structures make sense based on time horizon and risk appetite

• How Gift City investments fit alongside Indian and overseas holdings

We focus on clarity, compliance, and long-term strategy—so your global wealth works as one portfolio, not multiple disconnected pieces.
