Why Gift City?

GIFT City (Gujarat International Finance Tec-City) is India’s first operational International Financial Services Centre (IFSC), purpose-built to rival global financial hubs like Singapore and Dubai. Strategically located in Ahmedabad, GIFT City offers a globally competitive ecosystem for fund managers, institutions, and investors—combining world-class infrastructure with a progressive regulatory framework under the International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA).

What makes GIFT City unique is not just its ambition—but its execution. It provides unparalleled regulatory clarity, tax neutrality, and operational flexibility for alternative investment funds (AIFs), making it the jurisdiction of choice for global capital seeking Indian exposure—and Indian capital seeking global access.

For fund managers, GIFT City offers rapid setup timelines, complete freedom to raise and deploy capital in foreign currency, and the ability to structure innovative pooled and bespoke vehicles. For investors—especially NRIs, OCIs, and foreign institutions—it delivers a tax-efficient, frictionless route to participate in India’s growth story without the typical regulatory burden.

GIFT City is more than a location. It’s a platform—a bridge between Indian opportunity and international capital. At Fiducrest, we leverage every advantage it offers to deliver precision-built strategies with global reach, local insight, and absolute regulatory confidence.
