increase or decrease in the level of interest rates. The new level of interest rate is
determined by the rates at which government raises new money and/or the price
levels at which the market is already dealing in existing securities. The price-risk is
not unique to Government Securities. It exists for all fixed income securities.
However, Government Securities are unique in the sense that their credit risk
generally remains zero. Therefore, their prices are influenced only by movement in
interest rates in the financial system.
• Different types of fixed income securities in which the Scheme would invest as given
in the Scheme Information Document carry different levels and types of risk.
Accordingly, the Scheme risk may increase or decrease depending upon its
investment pattern. e.g. corporate bonds carry a higher level of risk than Government
securities. Further even among corporate bonds, bonds, which are AAA rated, are
comparatively less risky than bonds, which are AA rated.
• The AMC may, considering the overall level of risk of the portfolio, invest in lower
rated / unrated securities offering higher yields as well as zero coupon securities that
offer attractive yields. This may increase the absolute level of risk of the portfolio.
• As zero coupon securities do not provide periodic interest payments to the holder of
the security, these securities are more sensitive to changes in interest rates.
Therefore, the interest rate risk of zero coupon securities is higher. The AMC may
choose to invest in zero coupon securities that offer attractive yields. This may
increase the risk of the portfolio.
• Securities, which are not quoted on the stock exchanges, are inherently illiquid in
nature and carry a larger amount of liquidity risk, in comparison to securities that are
listed on the exchanges or offer other exit options to the investor, including a put
option. The AMC may choose to invest in unlisted securities that offer attractive
yields. This may increase the risk of the portfolio.
• Scheme's performance may differ from the benchmark index to the extent of the
investments held in the debt segment, as per the investment pattern indicated under
normal circumstances.
(iii) General Risk Factors
• Trading volumes, settlement periods and transfer procedures may restrict the
liquidity of the investments made by the Scheme. Different segments of the Indian
financial markets have different settlement periods and such periods may be
extended significantly by unforeseen circumstances leading to delays in receipt of
proceeds from sale of securities. The NAV of the Units of the Scheme can go up or
down because of various factors that affect the capital markets in general.
• At times, due to the forces and factors affecting the capital market, the Scheme may
not be able to invest in securities falling within its investment objective resulting in
holding the monies collected by it in cash or cash equivalent or invest the same in
other permissible securities / investments amounting to substantial reduction in the
earning capability of the Scheme.
• Performance of the Scheme may be affected by political, social, and economic
developments, which may include changes in government policies, diplomatic
conditions, and taxation policies.
(iv) Risk factors associated with processing of transaction through Stock Exchange
Mechanism
• The trading mechanism introduced by the stock exchange(s) is configured to accept
and process transactions for mutual fund units in both Physical and Demat Form.
The allotment and/or redemption of Units through NSE and/or BSE or any other
recognised stock exchange(s), on any Business Day will depend upon the modalities
of processing viz. collection of Application Form, order processing/settlement, etc.
upon which the Fund has no control. Moreover, transactions conducted through the
stock exchange mechanism shall be governed by the operating guidelines and
directives issued by respective recognized stock exchange(s).
(v) Risk factors associated with Market Trading
• Although Units of the respective Series as described in this Scheme Information
Document are to be listed on the Exchange(s), there can be no assurance that an
active secondary market will be developed or be maintained.
• Trading in Units of the the respective Series on the Exchange(s) may be halted
because of market conditions or for reasons that in view of the Exchange Authorities
or SEBI, trading in Units of the Scheme is not advisable. In addition, trading in Units of
the Scheme is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility and
pursuant to the Exchange(s) and SEBI 'circuit filter' rules. There can be no assurance
1. Investment Objective
To generate long term capital appreciation from a portfolio of Eligible Securities as
specified in Rajiv Gandhi Equity Savings Scheme. There is no assurance that the
investment objective of the Scheme will be realized.
The table below provides the broad asset allocation of the Portfolio of the respective
Series offered under the Scheme to be followed under normal circumstances:
Type of Instruments Minimum Allocation Maximum Allocation Risk
(% of Net Assets) (% of Net Assets) Profile
Equity securities 95 100 Medium to
specified as Eligible High
Securities for RGESS
Money Market 0 5 Low to
Instruments** Medium
and Liquid Schemes
** The Scheme shall invest in Money Market Instruments as defined under SEBI
(Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996, with residual maturity of less than or equal to 91
days.
Each Series under the Scheme will be managed as a separate portfolio.
The Scheme will not invest in ADR/GDR/foreign securities/derivatives/securitised debt.
Mutual Fund Units involve investment risks including the possible loss of principal.
Please read the SID carefully for details on risk factors before investment. Scheme
specific Risk Factors include but are not limited to the following:
(i) Risk factors associated with investing in equities and equity related instruments
• The Scheme will predominantly invest in the universe of companies specified by
RGESS as eligible Securities. Accordingly, the NAV of the Scheme is linked to the
performance of such companies. Such companies may outperform or
underperform the benchmark index and/or the constituents of the said benchmark
index.
• Investments in equity shares of public sector enterprises which are categorised as
Maharatna, Navratna or Miniratna by the Central Government are prone to price
fluctuation due to changes in government policies and decision making. Actions of
the central government or state governments could have a significant impact on the
performance of the share prices of such companies.
• Equity shares and equity related instruments are volatile and prone to price
fluctuations on a daily basis. Investments in equity shares and equity related
instruments involve a degree of risk and investors should not invest in the Scheme
unless they can afford to take the risks.
• While securities that are listed on the stock exchange carry lower liquidity risk, the
ability to sell these investments is limited by the overall trading volume on the stock
exchanges and may lead to the Scheme incurring losses till the security is finally
sold.
• Investment strategy to be adopted by the Scheme may carry the risk of significant
variance between the portfolio allocation of the Scheme and the Benchmark
particularly over a short to medium term period.
(ii) Risk factors associated with investing in Fixed Income Securities
• The Net Asset Value (NAV) of the respective Series, to the extent invested in Money
Market securities, will be affected by changes in the general level of interest rates.
The NAV of the respective Series is expected to increase from a fall in interest rates
while it would be adversely affected by an increase in the level of interest rates.
• Money market securities, while fairly liquid, lack a well developed secondary market,
which may restrict the selling ability of the Scheme and may lead to the Scheme
incurring losses till the security is finally sold.
• Investment in Fixed Income Securities are subject to the risk of an issuer's inability to
meet interest and principal payments on its obligations and market perception of the
creditworthiness of the issuer.
• Government securities where a fixed return is offered run price-risk like any other
fixed income security. Generally, when interest rates rise, prices of fixed income
securities fall and when interest rates drop, the prices increase. The extent of fall or
rise in the prices is a function of the existing coupon, days to maturity and the

that the requirements of the Exchange(s) necessary to maintain the listing of Units of
the Scheme will continue to be met or will remain unchanged.
• The Units of the the respective Series may trade above or below their NAV. The NAV of
the the respective Series will fluctuate with changes in the market value of Scheme's
holdings. The trading prices of Units of the the respective Series will fluctuate in
accordance with changes in their NAV as well as market supply and demand for the
Units of the Scheme.
• As the Units allotted under of the the respective Series will be listed on the
Exchange(s), the Mutual Fund shall not provide for redemption / repurchase of Units
prior to maturity / final redemption date of the Scheme.
(vi) Risk factors associated with Close-ended Schemes:
• A close-ended Scheme endeavors to achieve the desired returns only at the
scheduled maturity of the Scheme. Investors who wish to exit/redeem before the
scheduled maturity date may do so through the stock exchange mode. For the units
listed on the exchange, it is possible that the market price at which the units are
traded may be at a discount to the NAV of such Units. Hence, Unit Holders who sell
their Units in a Scheme prior to maturity may not get the desired returns. Moreover,
given the nature of scheme, the AMC may be required to liquidate the equity portfolio
and the proceeds may be kept in cash and invested largely in cash
equivalents/money market instruments towards the Maturity/Final Redemption date
and to that extent these investments made may not be in line with the asset allocation
pattern.
• Investments made from the net assets of the Scheme would be in accordance with
the investment objective of the Scheme, the provisions of the SEBI (MF) Regulations
and in accordance with the applicable provisions laid down under RGESS, 2012. The
AMC will strive to achieve the investment objective by way of a portfolio comprising
predominantly of Eligible Securities as specified under RGESS.
• The RGESS guidelines, as amended from time to time would be adhered to in the
management of this Scheme.
• Every investment opportunity in Money Market Instruments would be assessed with
regard to credit risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk.
The respective Series under the Scheme offers Regular Plan and Direct Plan.
Regular Plan is for investors who wish to route their investment through any
distributor. Direct Plan is for investors who wish to invest directly with the Fund
without routing the investment through any distributor.
Both Regular Plan and Direct Plan offer Growth Option and Dividend Payout Option.
Applicable NAV For Purchases including switch-ins
The Units of the Series will not be available for subscriptions / switch-in after the
closure of NFO Period.
Applicable NAV For Redemptions including switch-outs
Units of the Series cannot be redeemed / switched-out by the investors directly with
the Fund until the date of Maturity / Final Redemption. Therefore, the provisions of
Cut off timing for redemptions including switch-outs will not be applicable to the
Series.
Units of the Series will be automatically redeemed on the Maturity / Final Redemption
date, except requests for switch-out received by the Fund.
Switch-out request will be accepted upto 3.00 p.m. on the Maturity Date/Final
Redemption Date.

It is proposed to declare dividends subject to availability of distributable profits, as
computed in accordance with SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996.
Dividends, if declared, will be paid (subject of deduction of tax at source, if any) to
those Unit holders / Beneficial Owners whose names appear in the Register of Unit
holders maintained by the Mutual Fund/ statement of beneficial ownership
maintained by the Depositories, as applicable, under the Dividend Option as on the
Record Date.
The Dividend Warrants shall be despatched within 30 days of the declaration of the
dividend. In the event of failure of dispatch of dividend within the stipulated 30 day
period, the AMC shall be liable to pay interest @ 15% per annum to the Unit holders.
The AMC reserves the right to change the record date from time to time. However, it
must be distinctly understood that the actual declaration of dividend and the
frequency thereof will inter alia, depend on the availability of distributable profits as
computed in accordance with SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996. The decision
of the Trustee in this regard shall be final.
There is no assurance or guarantee to Unit holders as to the rate of dividend
distribution nor that dividends will be paid regularly. On payment of dividends, the
NAV will stand reduced by the amount of dividend and dividend tax (if applicable)
paid.
This Scheme is a new scheme and does not have any performance track record.
First Rs. 100 crores - 2.50% p.a.
Next Rs. 300 crores - 2.25% p.a.
Next Rs. 300 crores - 2.00% p.a.
Balance - 1.75% p.a.
Direct Plan shall have a lower expense ratio excluding distribution expenses,
commission, etc and no commission for distribution of Units will be paid / charged
under the Direct Plan. Thus, it is estimated that the expense ratio of the Direct Plan
would be lower by approximately 0.60% p.a. of daily net assets as compared to
Regular Plan.
In addition to the recurring expenses specified for the Scheme, the following
expenses/ Service Tax may also be charged under the Scheme
a. Expenses in respect of inflows from beyond top 15 cities - a maximum charge of
0.30% on the daily net assets computed as per the guidelines issued by SEBI for
meeting distribution expenses incurred for bringing inflows from such cities.
