How to Read Mutual Fund statement

Invest Mutual Fund Online
 
 1. What does a mutual fund statement contain? 

Whenever you make an investment in a mutual fund scheme, the fund house has to send you an account statement providing details of your holding. You can opt for a physical copy or a soft copy which can also be accessed online. 

This statement gives details about the transactions conducted by you within a defined period. It is sent within a period of 3-5 working days after the transaction. The statement also indicates any changes in the account whenever there is a redemption, additional investment, dividend declaration or a change such as KYC details. Each folio created has a different account statement. 


2. Should you preserve your MF statement? 

It is not necessary to preserve a physical copy of a statement from a mutual fund house. An investor's ownership is recorded by the AMC in its records. To redeem your units, or to purchase more units, you need to only mention the folio number, scheme name and fill the relevant form. 

3. What details does a mutual fund statement have? 

Investors' personal details and bank details: Your name, address, e-mail ID and contact numbers of the investor or joint investors, if any, are mentioned in this section. Ensure that the details mentioned in the account statement are correct. Ensure that the name of the bank and account number is correct else you will face problems when you were to redeem your mutual fund units. 


Folio number: Each time you make an additional investment in a mutual fund ensure that the folio number is the same as the previous one. Use the same folio number to invest in any fund be it debt, equity or a tax plan, with the same fund house. Using a single folio makes it easier to track all investments with a particular fund house. 

Current cost and value: The current value is the latest market value of the investments on the date the statement is generated while the current cost indicates the amount invested in the scheme. The number of units allotted is calculated using the amount invested divided by the NAV of the scheme as on the date of allotment. Any exit load, would be deducted from the NAV and the proceeds paid out to the investor. 

Advisor's name, EUIN and PAN details: If you have invested through an agent, his name and code and EUIN number will appear in the account statement. Ensure that the PAN mentioned in the account statement is correct. 

Transaction summary: This section mentions the types of transactions that you have opted for, which might include purchase, the systematic investment plan ( SIP) or the systematic withdrawal plan (SWP). Besides, other transactions are also mentioned, along with the percentage or rupees per unit at which the dividend is reinvested or paid out.

Understanding Your Cibil Credit Information Report

   WE ARE all familiar with the anxiety and uncertainty that we feel when applying for a loan. After all, it's the lender who decides whether we can own our dream home, our first car, or whether our children can pursue higher education. In a nutshell, a better life depends on the lender's decisions.    While other factors do play a part in the lender's decision, the Cibil Credit Information Report ( CIR ) plays a crucial role in a lender's decision to approve a loan application.    Previously, lenders would treat all loan seekers equally. Each applicant, if approved by the lender's internal credit policy, would be charged at the same interest rate for a particular loan size and purpose. The lenders would charge a higher interest rate to all the borrowers, in order to compensate for the possible default of a small portion of the loan disbursed. In other words, it's like a professor (the lender) punishing an entire class (borrowers) for the mischief played b...

Myths about Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs)

1) ETFs Are Similar to Individual Stocks: Like MFs, ETF consist of an underlying portfolio of securities that's designed to follow a specific index or investment strategy. Hence, they are as diversified as various mutual funds. 2) ETFs Only Invest in Equity: Since they are listed on the exchange, the general belief is that ETF only consists of equity asset class. Globally, ETFs are available across asset classes – equity, debt, commodities, real estate and so on. In fact, over the past couple of years, India has also seen the emergence of Gold ETFs. 3) All ETFs Are Index Funds: ETF started as a fund which used to track indices and hence they were branded as index funds that are listed. However, ETFs have progressed rapidly and are no longer associated only with passive index funds. Globally, we have seen the launch of actively-managed ETFs. In India, also we recently saw the emer gence of fundamentally-weighted ETFs on Nifty, which busts the myth that ETFs are index funds and can...

Good Loan

Why Is It A Good Loan?: Loans against gold are cheaper and better than personal loans as the former are available at lower interest rates. In contrast, the interest rates on personal loans are not standardised and can vary from bank to bank. Also, a personal loan depends on a host of factors including, the borrower's salary, profession and the purpose for which the loan is being taken.      For instance, the interest rate on a personal loan of 5 lakh falls in a wide range of 15-30%. But loans against gold are available for as low as 11%. Secured borrowing such as a loan against gold, investments or property is cheaper because it is backed by some assets, which command a good value at any point of time. If the borrower defaults on the loan, the banks can liquidate the assets to settle the loan account.    Being a secured loan, the risk of default and credit losses is significantly lower in this loan compared to other forms of loan for personal use. Given the lower risk, gold loa...
