Why no active equity ETF's in India?

[KANAGU]

why no actively managed ETF’s in India. As an investor, I invest in stocks, MF & ETF’s. U.S has actively managed ETF’s but why no such actively managed equity ETF’s in India?

Fund houses have many many funds already, and their ER is enough for the fund houses. Since the interest and growth in passive investing started a few years ago, many fund houses started providing index funds and ETFs for those who want to go through the passive route. And there are also regular index funds, some of them perhaps are sold to gullible people as cross selling. So funds houses are doing good business.

U.S has actively managed ETF’s

What can you say about Vanguard or BlackRock?

This topic was previously discussed too

Actively managed ETFs in India?

The US has several actively managed ETFs (see here). However, in 2017 SEBI categorized ETFs as an index tracking product (see here). Has this changed? Are there any actively managed ETFs in India, or do regulations forbid them?

I still don’t see what additional benefit active ETF offer. Especially in our markets, where liquidity is concern even for some of the passive ETF.

Just because US has it, we should have it too is not a valid justification
