Alt Unveils India’s First PMS Focused on Listed REITs & InvITs

25 Aug 2025 CW Team

The strategy aims to give investors structured access to India’s rapidly expanding real estate and infrastructure assets, offering stable yields of c. 8–9 per cent annually (distributed quarterly) and target returns of 12–15 per cent IRR over a four-year horizon.

REITs and InvITs have delivered 11.0 per cent p.a. since inception in 2019—outperforming G-Secs, FDs and debt MFs, and with lower volatility than equities. With listed REITs now crossing $17 billion in market capitalisation and InvITs managing over $80 billion of infrastructure assets, institutional demand has accelerated.

Despite this growth, no PMS has previously offered investors curated exposure to these regulated hybrid products. REITs and InvITs combine quarterly income distributions with capital appreciation, while being 33 per cent less volatile than equities and showing a low 0.23 correlation to the Nifty 50.

ARIPS builds on Alt’s leadership in the REIT space through Property Share, having launched India’s first Small & Medium REIT (SM REIT) PropShare Platina in December 2025 and the largest SM REIT, PropShare Titania, in August 2025. The founding team has over $3 billion of real estate investment experience, including the first listed REIT (Embassy Office Parks).

“India is at the cusp of a generational shift in wealth allocation from traditional financial assets to real assets,” said Kunal Moktan, Co-founder, Alt. “ARIPS is built to institutionalise access to REITs and InvITs for Indian investors—offering the same risk-adjusted returns and portfolio stability that global institutions have tapped into for decades.”

The PMS requires a minimum investment of Rs 50 lakh. All investments will be made in liquid, listed securities with T+1 settlement, under dual regulatory oversight by SEBI on both REITs/InvITs and portfolio managers.
