Starting July 2025, the rules governing Angel Funds in India are undergoing a major overhaul.

These fresh guidelines from SEBI aim to bring greater structure, credibility, and transparency into India’s early-stage investment ecosystem. One of the biggest takeaways? Only SEBI-accredited investors can participate going forward.

Here’s what this regulatory shift means for investors, fund managers, and startups.

🧭 What’s Changing in Angel Fund Norms?

πŸ›‘οΈ 1. Only Accredited Investors Can Invest

SEBI will now only allow formally Accredited Investors to participate in angel funds. This will:

  • Elevate the quality of investors

  • Filter out non-serious players

  • Strengthen overall trust in the system

πŸ“‰ 2. Lower Investment Threshold

The minimum investment size is being slashed from β‚Ή25 lakh to β‚Ή10 lakh, opening up access to a wider range of eligible investors.

πŸ“ˆ 3. No Investor Cap per Scheme

The existing 200-investor ceiling per angel fund scheme will no longer apply.
This allows:

  • More investor participation in promising deals

  • Greater flexibility in fundraising

πŸ” 4. Follow-on Investments Now Allowed

Angel Funds can continue backing a startup even if it loses its DPIIT startup recognition, enabling longer-term support beyond early rounds.

βš–οΈ 5. Transparent Deal Sharing Required

All investment opportunities must now be shared with every investor in a scheme.
This fosters:

  • Greater fairness

  • Reduced insider bias

πŸ“‹ 6. Accredited Investors Treated as QIBs (for Angel Funds)

A big win for investors—accredited individuals will now be treated as Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs) when investing through angel funds.

πŸ“Œ What This Means for You

Whether you’re:

  • A startup founder raising early capital,

  • An investor looking to diversify your portfolio, or

  • A fund manager running regulated schemes,

these changes are going to reshape the startup investment playbook in India.

πŸ” Is Your Strategy Future-Ready?

Ask yourself:

  • βœ… Are you already accredited or working toward it?

  • βœ… Are your fund documents and operations SEBI-compliant?

  • βœ… Is your structure ready for transparent deal allocation?

If you’re unsure, we’re here to guide you.
