Master Capital Services Secures SEBI’s Nod for Mutual Fund Sponsorship

Master Capital Services, a fully owned unit of Master Trust, has received in-principle approval from SEBI to act as a mutual fund sponsor. This lays the foundation for the company to set up an Asset Management Company (AMC) and introduce a range of investment products across equity, hybrid, and multi-asset classes, aligning with India's evolving investment landscape. 

SEBI Approval Brings Master Capital Services Closer to AMC Formation 

On November 17, 2025, Master Capital Services announced SEBI’s in-principle approval to launch its mutual fund business. This approval is the first key step in establishing an AMC, enabling the company to proceed with meeting regulatory requirements and subsequently launching its fund schemes. The firm will eventually offer equity, hybrid, and multi-asset funds tailored to both retail and institutional investor needs. 

Diversified Product Line for Different Investor Needs 

With a focus on accessible and professionally managed solutions, Master Capital Services plans to roll out fund offerings that use a mix of quantitative strategies and bottom-up stock selection. The goal is to provide simplified, cost-effective products that optimise risk-adjusted returns. The mutual fund range will cater to varying objectives, from wealth creation to balanced investment exposure.
