Mutual Funds - How to modify KYC or do rekyc?

Last year SEBI issued a circular effective April 1, 2024 regarding KYC norms for the securities market.

This has created a lot of confusion among investors and intermediaries, whether who has to do rekyc and who need not?

First check your KYC status from CVL KRA.

  • If the 2nd column says KYC VALIDATED, then you are good to go - no action required. You can invest and redeem all the funds.
  • If it says registered, you can invest in existing Fund houses. You have do rekyc to invest in new fund houses/ schemes.
  • If it is on hold, you have to do rekyc. 

You can do rekyc completely online from the AMC's websites, links of which are given below:

The main objective of the such products is to provide investors with an alternative during market-decline and in the case where they cannot short sell the index. This type of fund is generally linked to the market index such as the  Nifty 50 Total Returns Inverse Index.  The value of such funds change similar to the traditional funds, on a daily basis, say if the index declines by 1 percent in a day, the fund value increases by 1 percent for that day. How does these funds benefit retail investors or traders? Many investors,rather traders, can make use of this type of fund as a hedge against market conditions.Hedg
