Mutual Fund: Huge decision by SEBI, know before investment – Times Bull

Mutual Fund: Huge decision by SEBI, know before investment

by
SIP Mutual Funds

Mutual Fund: The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has implemented a significant alteration in the regulations for mutual fund investors.

Investors can now terminate

Investors can now terminate their Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) or suspend its contribution merely three days prior to the payment date. Upon receiving the application, the mutual fund company must finalize this process in two days (T+2). This will assist investors in steering clear of penalties and various financial difficulties. The recent regulation has been enforced.

Previously, investors needed to submit their requests to cancel SIP 10 working days in advance. Estimating the status of the bank account accurately over such an extended period was challenging, causing the installments to frequently bounce. As a result, investors were required to incur extra fees such as ECS or mandate return charges. SEBI has streamlined the cancellation procedure to address this issue. The updated regulation will be in effect for both online and offline SIPs.

It will be helpful for investors

Imagine an investor’s SIP payment takes place on the 10th day of each month. In certain months, his account lacks sufficient funds until the 7th. In this scenario, he may ask to halt or terminate the SIP on the 7th. The mutual fund company must cancel it prior to the 10th. During this period, the investor will not face any penalties. 

Significant step by SEBI

This move by SEBI is viewed as a significant advancement for transparency in the mutual fund sector and enhancing investors’ rights. Specialists assert that this new regulation will greatly assist SIP investors. Now they won’t have to worry about penalties and they will gain improved control over their investments. This action will enhance investor convenience and also assist them with financial planning.
