Before chasing new investments, ask yourself these six questions | Mint

Investor interest in new products like SIFs (specialised investment funds) and GIFT City is rising fast, with SIF inflows up 200% this financial year. If you can commit over ₹10 lakh, ask six simple questions first: what is the risk, how does it fit your portfolio, what are the costs, and will post-tax returns beat your existing holdings?

Key Statutory Highlights

  • SIF inflows grew 200% and GIFT City registered users grew 68% in this financial year.
  • These new and exclusive products are available to people who can commit over ₹10 lakhs.
  • Investors should look beyond return expectations and assess risk, portfolio fit, costs, liquidity and taxation first.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:Before you put money into any new product, check its risk, how it fits your existing portfolio, its costs and how it is taxed, and compare the post-tax return with what you already hold.
