SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey has unveiled a major reform package aimed at boosting India’s capital markets. Key highlights include the GARUDA mechanism, which drastically accelerates AIF scheme launches to as little as 10 days—or immediate deployment for angel funds by removing merchant banker mandates. Additionally, SEBI has transferred nearly ₹10 crore to the new Social Stock Exchange Capacity Building Foundation to better support social enterprises. Finally, by aligning SDI regulations with RBI standards, SEBI is paving the way for easier listing of securitized assets, significantly enhancing efficiency and ease of doing business across the financial ecosystem.
