Questions people ask
Short answers in plain words.
A new fund offer (NFO) is the first time a new scheme takes money from investors, within a window of set dates. Once it closes and units are allotted, an open-ended scheme re-opens within five business days for everyday purchases and redemptions at its NAV, as an existing open-ended fund does.
The riskometer places a scheme’s portfolio at one of six levels SEBI has set, from Low to Very High, and the fund house reviews the level every month. It describes the risk of the scheme’s portfolio and says nothing about its returns.
Investments made through a mutual fund distributor are in the Regular plan, which includes distributor commission. The fund house pays that commission out of the plan’s expenses, so it is part of the Regular plan’s expense ratio.
No: a mutual fund distributor is registered with AMFI and has an ARN (AMFI Registration Number), while an investment adviser is registered with SEBI under its Investment Advisers Regulations, 2013. They are different registrations, with different rules on what each may do and how each is paid.
Verify any distributor's ARN at amfiindia.com. AMFI’s website shows the name an ARN is registered to and the date until which it is valid.
You can end an SIP, or pause it where the fund house offers a pause, by asking the fund house, its registrar or your distributor, with the notice that fund house asks for before the next instalment. Ending an SIP ends only the instalments: units already allotted stay invested until you redeem them.

How to invest in an NFO
Read the scheme documents
Each NFO page names its Scheme Information Document (SID) and Key Information Memorandum (KIM), and links them where SEBI or the fund house publishes them.
Apply before it closes
Distributors and platforms can stop taking applications earlier on the last day.
Apply through a distributor
A mutual fund distributor registered with AMFI (they hold an ARN) places your application in the Regular plan. AMFI’s website lists distributors by city.
Find a distributor on AMFI’s website (amfiindia.com)Units are allotted after the close
An open-ended scheme re-opens for everyday purchases and redemptions within five business days of allotment.
ETFs have a single plan: during the NFO, apply through a distributor or a stockbroker; after listing, units trade on the stock exchange.
When you are ready, invest with a person.
A mutual fund distributor registered with AMFI places your application in the Regular plan. Felix is software distributors use to run their practice.
Investments made through a mutual fund distributor are in the Regular plan, which includes distributor commission. Each scheme’s expense ratio is on AMFI’s website.
