1. Nature of Services
We act as an AMFI-Registered Mutual Fund Distributor.
Our primary role is to:
- Facilitate the purchase, redemption, and switching of mutual fund units.
- Provide information on mutual fund schemes and asset allocation.
- Assist investors with transactions, documentation, and account-related queries.
We are not a SEBI-Registered Investment Adviser (RIA).
We do not offer individualised financial advice, portfolio management, or assured returns.
2. No Direct Fees Charged to Clients
We do not charge any advisory or service fees directly to our clients for mutual fund distribution.
Our sole source of earnings comes from commissions paid by Asset Management Companies (AMCs), as permitted under AMFI guidelines.
There is no additional cost to investors for engaging with us as their distributor.
3. Commission Disclosure
As per regulatory requirements, we disclose that:
- We receive Upfront Commissions and/or Trail Commissions from AMCs.
- These commissions are paid by the respective AMCs, not by the client.
- Commission structures vary across mutual fund categories (equity, hybrid, debt, liquid) and across AMCs.
Indicative Commission Ranges (Industry Standard in India)
(Actual rates vary by AMC and scheme; detailed AMC-wise disclosures available on request.)
Fund Category Typical Trail Commission Range:
Equity Funds 0.50% – 1.25% per annum, Hybrid Funds 0.30% – 1.00% per annum
Debt Funds 0.05% – 0.80% per annum, Liquid Funds 0.01% – 0.20% per annum, ELSS / Tax-Saving Funds 0.50% – 1.25% per annum
Note:
- Commissions are subject to change based on AMC policies.
- All expenses are part of the Total Expense Ratio (TER) charged by the fund house.
- Updated commission disclosures for each scheme will be provided upon request or can be viewed on the respective AMC websites.
4. Transparency & Conflict-of-Interest Disclaimer
- We do not recommend schemes based on commissions.
- We aim to suggest options aligned with your stated financial needs and risk profile.
- However, as distributors—not advisors—there exists a potential conflict of interest due to the commission-based compensation model.
We encourage all investors to review scheme documents, KIM (Key Information Memorandum), SID (Scheme Information Document), and risk factors before investing.
5. No Guarantees or Assured Returns
Mutual Fund investments are subject to market risks.
We do not guarantee:
- Returns
- Capital protection
- Performance of any mutual fund scheme
Past performance does not indicate future results.
6. Client Responsibility
The investor should:
- Read all scheme-related documents carefully
- Evaluate risk tolerance
- Make informed decisions
- Keep KYC and FATCA details updated
We facilitate, but the final investment decision remains with the client.
