Gandhinagar: Tata Asset Management has set up a branch at the International Financial Services Centre (IFSC) in GIFT City, Gujarat, to extend fund management services to global investors and provide them with access to India’s vibrant equity markets. The firm has also received approval to launch the Tata India Dynamic Equity Fund – GIFT IFSC, a retail-focused inbound feeder fund with a minimum investment ticket size of USD 500. The fund will invest in mutual fund equity schemes and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), an official statement said today.

“India is at the cusp of a multi-decade growth cycle, powered by demographics, digital transformation, infrastructure push, and economic formalisation. GIFT City seeks to be a world-class gateway for global investors to participate in this opportunity. With our entry into IFSC, Tata AMC is well placed to connect international and NRI investors with India’s vibrant capital markets through innovative and accessible products,” said Prathit Bhobe, CEO & Managing Director, Tata Asset Management Private Limited.

The fund employs an active allocation strategy that responds to market trends, combining large, mid, and small-cap exposures for risk-adjusted returns. Tactical exposure in emerging themes—such as technology, energy, and healthcare—enhances the opportunity.

Abhinav Sharma, Head – International Business, Tata Asset Management, said, “The Tata India Dynamic Equity Fund from GIFT IFSC has accessibility to all with a minimum ticket size of USD 500, significant tax advantages for non-residents, and our ability to offer a gateway for global investors—both large and small—to directly participate in India’s growth story. The fund will dynamically allocate assets based on prevailing market conditions. In the current scenario, it will allocate 50–100% of the AUM to broad-based funds and 0–50% to sectoral and thematic opportunities, ensuring diversified access to India’s growth potential while maintaining optimal flexibility.”

A major advantage for non-resident investors is the complete exemption from Indian taxes on income earned through the fund. Investors are only subject to taxation as per the laws of their country of residence, making this an exceedingly tax-efficient entry point to Indian equities.

The Tata India Dynamic Equity Fund is open to foreign investors, both individuals and entities, as well as Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) and Overseas Citizens of India from jurisdictions compliant with Financial Action Task Force (FATF) standards.

With this launch, Tata Asset Management aims at strengthening its global footprint while reinforcing its commitment to making India’s growth story accessible to the world, the company said. DeshGujarat
