Recently, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) amended real estate investment trust (Reit) regulations to bring them within the reach of a larger set of investors. According to the revised regulation, the minimum application amount in a Reit has been reduced from  ₹50,000 to  ₹10,000- ₹15,000.
