Cut-off time for equity MFs to be restored from Monday: Amfi
Capital markets regulator Sebi will restore the cut-off timing for buying and selling of equity mutual fund units to 3 pm from Monday, according to industry body Amfi.
Capital markets regulator Sebi will restore the cut-off timing for buying and selling of equity mutual fund units to 3 pm from Monday, according to industry body Amfi.
However, the existing truncated cut-off time would continue for debt and conservative hybrid funds.
In a tweet, Amfi Chairman Nilesh Shah said cut-off timing for both subscription and redemption for all schemes other than those categorised as debt schemes and conservative hybrid fund is being restored to original cut-off timing of 3 pm, effective, October 19.
The move comes following a request by the industry body Association of Mutual Funds in India (Amfi).
Earlier in April, Sebi had reduced cut-off time for subscription and redemption of mutual funds, including liquid and overnight schemes due to coronavirus pandemic.
The regulator had reduced cut-off time for availing the same day's net asset value (NAV) for mutual fund schemes to 1 pm from 3 pm.
For liquid and overnight funds, the time was advanced to 12.30 pm from 1.30 pm.
