Workflow / Flow Chart

  1. Step 1Open the official SEBI source dated 11 July 2025 for Master Circular for Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs), 11 July 2025 and save the source URL in the working paper for InvIT - Inspection, audit and records.
  2. Step 2Identify whether the page is current operational guidance, historical event-date material or source-hierarchy guidance before using Inspection, audit and records.
  3. Step 3For InvIT - Inspection, audit and records, map the fact pattern to audit, inspection, record preservation, working papers, systems evidence, regulatory letter and remediation instructions and record the regulated person, investor/client, security/product, filing channel and event date.
  4. Step 4Build the evidence pack from trust deed, investment management agreement, valuation report, project documents, distribution working, RPT note and trustee report and mark every item as available, pending or not applicable for InvIT - Inspection, audit and records.
  5. Step 5Check the governing regulation, master circular listing, supersession table and any exchange/depository specification that implements the same step.

  7. Step 7Escalate exceptions, stale-source reliance, broken filing evidence or investor/client communication gaps before closing the page file.

Practical Examples

  • InvIT acquiring an operational asset: use Inspection, audit and records to identify the source paragraph, responsible owner, evidence file and closure step.
  • distribution working after valuation change: compare the facts with the official circular source and governing regulation before finalising advice or filing.
  • related-party project-management contract: if the fact pattern changes, rerun applicability, source-currentness, investor/client communication and reporting checks.

Highlighted Points

  • Do not rely on a SEBI master circular route label alone; open the official source for Master Circular for Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs), 11 July 2025.
  • Inspection, audit and records should end in a dated clause-to-evidence working paper for InvIT.
  • A portal or exchange acknowledgement does not cure reliance on a superseded circular or a wrong event-date version.
  • Keep the official source URL beside the paragraph note for InvIT - Inspection, audit and records, especially where SEBI lists older and later master circulars for the same subject.
  • Where InvIT work affects investors or clients, preserve communication text and proof of delivery with the compliance file.
