- PGIM India reopened lump-sum investments in its Global Select Real Estate Securities FoF on October 8, though fresh SIP registrations in the scheme remain suspended as of October 11.
- Baroda BNP Paribas Aqua FoF is the only one of the six open schemes accepting both fresh lump-sum investments and new SIP registrations.
- Three Invesco India schemes — Pan European Equity FoF, Global Equity Income FoF, and Global Consumer Trends FoF — are taking new SIPs with a ₹10 lakh-per-PAN daily cap, but their lump-sum facilities are closed.
- Mirae Asset Global Electric & Autonomous Vehicles Equity Passive FoF is accepting fresh SIP registrations as of October 11 while its lump-sum route stays shut.
- Indian mutual funds face a $7 billion industry-wide ceiling on overseas investments and a $1 billion per-fund limit, and fund houses hit those caps suspend fresh subscriptions until holdings are sold, units redeemed, or foreign values decline.
Why it matters: With five of six available international FoFs blocking either lump-sum or SIP entry, Indian investors seeking global diversification have a narrow on-ramp — and the $1 billion per-fund ceiling means even these slots can close without notice when overseas holdings move.
