21 Jul 2025 CW Team

AMSA enters the market with a strong retail-first approach, supported by a rigorous asset selection framework and strict adherence to regulatory compliance. It aims to make real estate investment more accessible, credible, and rewarding for retail investors by offering institutional-grade investment opportunities in a structured format.

Backed by Aurum PropTech’s sectoral expertise and integrated capabilities, AMSA is set to establish new benchmarks in governance, transparency, and investor experience. The platform plans to leverage AI-driven digital tools for property marketing, investor engagement, underwriting, and asset management—enabling a seamless and technology-enabled investment experience.

Following SEBI’s approval, AMSA is currently evaluating a robust pipeline of Grade-A, income-generating commercial assets. These properties will be carefully selected under the SM REIT regulatory framework to ensure a strong balance between yield potential and long-term financial stability.

Commenting on the development, Mr Onkar Shetye, Executive Director at Aurum PropTech, said, “The SM REIT framework offers the perfect platform for investors looking for stable, yield-driven financial products backed by real assets. At AMSA, we are excited to bring premium real estate investment opportunities to a broader investor base under a regulated and credible structure. This milestone demonstrates our commitment to regulatory compliance and investor trust. We thank SEBI for its progressive reforms and look forward to launching the first SM REIT scheme soon.”
