ITI Asset Management has launched platform under Diviniti brand and debuted its first offering in Equity Long Short Fund, a next-generation equity strategy designed to capture growth across market cycles limiting downside risks.

Jatinder Pal Singh, , ITI Mutual Fund, said SIF offers investors the sophistication of AIFs and PMS, combined with the governance, transparency and tax efficiency of the mutual fund structure.
The minimum invesment in SIF has been fixed at ₹10 lakh. It enables portfolio strategies that can dynamically adapt to changing markets, manage risk effectively, and pursue consistent, long-term wealth creation.
Rajesh Bhatia, Chief Investment Officer, ITI Mutual Fund said in the current market environment, capital protection during downturns is as important as capturing upside in bull phases.
The Diviniti Equity Long Short Fund is structured to participate in growth periods while tactically managing risk through short exposures — within SEBI’s prescribed framework, he said.
This disciplined approach aims to deliver more stable returns and smoother investor experiences across market cycles, he added.
The Diviniti model has been tested over seven years across varying market conditions, demonstrating its ability to deliver steady performance and reduced volatility during periods of market stress.
