There's a rule by the RBI. If you have 50% of your assets are "financial assets" (including mutual funds, shares etc but FDs are ok) and "financial" income is more than 50% (dividends, capital gains, interest etc but not FD interest)
Then you were supposed to register with the RBI as an NBFC.
This creates a problem for a "friends and family" fund structure created as a company. You can pool in money together, and use that to invest - in startups, in public markets, in bonds, whatever. But since most of the income and assets are financial, you need registration with RBI as an NBFC!
What RBI has done today is to remove that requirement if you're less than 1000 cr. in assets, and don't have any customer interface or take money from the public. Great to create new funds that are primarily pooled family or friend vehicles in India.
This will eventually create competition of us, as a mutual fund, but I would say this: let a 1000 fund managers bloom.
India doesn't have as many privately held funds as we should. Our family offices usually invest in each family member's name, separately, because a collective investment would trigger NBFC clauses. A few people that come together to invest shouldn't have to do something as gargantuan as an RBI registration.
Very progressive. Early stages yet. But it will benefit the investment attitude in the country.

It has come to our attention that an image circulating on social media falsely attributes a story to Financial Express.
The post in question includes an image designed to look like a Financial Express article, claiming that “DMI Finance faces ED probe, FIRs; Questions raised on recent funding.” This image is entirely fabricated. No such article has been published by us on our website or any of our official platforms.
The branding and layout have been misused to give the impression that this is a legitimate report.
We urge our readers and the public to verify information through Financial Express' official channels and avoid spreading unverified content.
