What this module covers
Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs) are both regulated under their own dedicated 2014 SEBI regulations — the SEBI (Real Estate Investment Trusts) Regulations, 2014 and the SEBI (Infrastructure Investment Trusts) Regulations, 2014 — which share a common three-party governance structure: a sponsor (who sets up the trust and must meet minimum net-worth and sector-experience thresholds), an investment manager (who runs the trust’s assets and investments day to day) and an independent, SEBI-registered trustee (who holds the trust’s assets for unit-holders and is required to be independent of both the sponsor and the manager). On top of this governance layer sit rules for asset valuation (a mandatory independent valuer, revalued at least annually), minimum distributable-income payout to unit-holders, and listing/disclosure obligations once units are publicly traded.
The 8 control pages below turn this framework into operational checkpoints — confirming who is in scope and how the trust is registered (P-01) through to inspection-readiness (P-08) — covering the sponsor/manager/trustee relationship, asset and valuation controls, and distribution/listing compliance as a single connected workflow rather than separate rulebooks.
