24 Sept 2026 · Economic Times Markets
Sebi’s board approved PRIM, allowing portfolio managers to invest client money in direct mutual fund plans, ETFs, index funds and SIFs. The new route carries a Rs 25 lakh minimum ticket size and expands PMS portfolio construction options beyond direct equities.
The analysis
SEBI reported Rs 25 lakh. Those are the figures as filed — what moves the price is how they sit against what the market already expected, not their absolute size.
Why it matters
- Fund flows and NAV moves show where domestic retail conviction is actually going, month after month.
- With SEBI involved, this carries a regulatory dimension that can outlast the immediate market reaction.
