Terms & Conditions

When investing through Mutual Fund Distributors (MFDs), investors need to understand the following terms and conditions:

  • Net Asset Value (NAV): The value of mutual fund units is based on the applicable NAV, which fluctuates based on market conditions.
  • Commissions and Fees: Distributors may receive commissions (upfront, trail, or otherwise) from Asset Management Companies (AMCs). These should be transparently disclosed to the investor.
  • Entry and Exit Loads: Some mutual fund schemes may charge entry (at the time of purchase) or exit loads (at the time of redemption). Investors should be informed about these charges beforehand.
  • Execution-Only Platform: MFDs may offer an execution-only platform, meaning they execute transactions without providing investment advice.
  • KYC Compliance: Investors must complete the Know Your Customer (KYC) process before investing.
  • Right to Information: Investors have the right to receive all relevant information about the mutual fund schemes, including scheme information documents, key information memorandums, and periodic statements.
