This circular introduces a simplified registration process for certain categories of Foreign Portfolio Investors (FPIs). FPI applicants belonging to specified categories like funds operated by registered Investment Managers, sub-funds of registered master funds, segregated portfolio structures, and insurance company schemes can opt for an abridged Common Application Form (CAF). This abridged version only requires filling unique fields, while other fields are auto-populated or disabled based on existing information in depositories' CAF module. Applicants must provide consent for using available data and confirm unchanged details. Designated Depository Participants (DDPs) must update CAF with applicant information and ensure complete data reflection in depository CAF module. Implementation standards and auto-populated/disabled fields will be formulated by Custodians and DDPs Standards Setting Forum in consultation with SEBI. Depositories, Custodians, and DDPs must make necessary system changes. The circular aims to facilitate ease of onboarding and reduce duplication for certain FPI applicants.
