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:

Post 2008 crash of about 50% and 2011 negative returns of 24%, markets have given positive returns of 81% and 25%. Also the average returns for the past years is about 20% despite the markets being down 24%.
