The regulations governing venture capital funds have been revamped and a new regime has been formulated for registration of an alternative investment fund (AIF) with the Securities and Exchange Board of India. The new regulations are much wider in scope.

A category I AIF has been equated with a venture capital fund and given a tax pass-through status whereby the income will be taxable in the hands of the investors directly.
This taxation position, which was only an interpretation when the AIF regulations were introduced, will obtain the effect of law on the Finance Bill, 2013, attaining the status of the Finance Act, 2013.
