<h1>SEBI Proposes New Rules for REITs and InvITs: Lower Lot Sizes, Higher Leverage Limits, and New Frameworks for Flexibility.</h1> The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has proposed new regulations for Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) and Infrastructure Investment Trusts (InvITs) to enhance investor access and funding flexibility. The proposal includes reducing the minimum allotment and trading lot sizes for publicly issued REITs and InvITs, and increasing the leverage limit for InvITs from 49% to 70% for acquiring new infrastructure assets. SEBI also suggests a separate framework for unlisted privately placed InvITs, with specific guidelines on investor numbers, minimum investment, and leverage, while allowing existing listed InvITs to migrate to this framework with unitholder approval.
