Fund Accounting, Administration and Reporting

Overview

India’s alternative investment landscape is evolving rapidly, reflecting the government’s strong emphasis on innovation, entrepreneurship, and economic growth. Alternate Investment Funds (AIFs) are increasingly attracting discerning investors, including high-net-worth individuals, due to their potential for high returns across diversified asset classes. To support this growth and protect investor interests, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has strengthened regulatory frameworks, ensuring transparency, compliance, and fair practices.

At BDO India, our team of fund accounting professionals provides comprehensive support to AIFs across real estate, private equity, hedge funds, and fund-of-funds. Services include day-to-day accounting, management reporting, consolidation, NAV calculation, and preparation of financial statements in accordance with applicable accounting standards, while ensuring statutory compliance.

The government’s focus on Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs) and Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) aims to mobilise private capital for large-scale infrastructure and commercial real estate projects. By creating regulated, liquid investment products, SEBI and the government bridge funding gaps while offering new avenues to investors.

BDO India supports InvITs, REITs, and their underlying portfolio entities through our Managed Services model, providing end-to-end assistance across accounting, treasury, reporting, reconciliations, and compliance. 

Leveraging domain expertise, robust governance frameworks, and technology-enabled solutions, we help clients streamline processes, strengthen their F&A function, and focus on core growth while navigating sector-specific regulatory nuances.
