Global quantitative trading and investment firm AlphaGrep said, in a release, that it has received mutual fund licence from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI).

Founded in 2010, AlphaGrep has evolved from a boutique quantitative trading desk into a global trading and investment firm managing over Rs 8,500-crore assets as of February 2026. The firm has also emerged as one of the largest participants by trading volume on domestic exchanges.

With the launch of AlphaGrep Mutual Fund, the company aims to bring data science-driven investment strategies to retail investors, offering access to systematic investment tools that were earlier largely limited to institutional investors and ultra-high-net-worth individuals.

The MF business will operate under AlphaGrep Investment Management Pvt Ltd (AGIM), which already has AuM of Rs 2,000 crore as of February 2026 through its alternative investment fund (AIF) and portfolio management services (PMS) platforms, including operations in GIFT City.

The firm said the new MF platform will focus on quantitative equity and hybrid strategies, using advanced mathematical models along with artificial intelligence and machine learning, it said. The MF business will be led by Bhautik Ambani, Chief Executive Officer of AlphaGrep Investment Management, it added.

AlphaGrep Mutual Fund plans to launch its first New Fund Offers (NFOs) in the coming months, focusing on systematic equity strategies and rules-based hybrid investment products.
