Investment in overseas securities shall be made in accordance with the requirements stipulated by SEBI and RBI from time to time.
Detailed definitions and applicable regulations/ guidelines for each instrument are included in Section II.
Inter Scheme Transfers (“IST”) of Securities < S.O. 30> 20As per the provisions of Paragraph 13.19.2 of SEBI Master Circular for Mutual Funds dated March 20, 2026, transfers of securities from one scheme to another scheme in the same mutual fund is allowed only if such transfers are done at the prevailing market price for quoted instruments on spot basis and the securities so transferred are in conformity with the investment objective of the scheme to which such transfer has been made.
C. WHAT ARE THE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES? <S.O.27 and S.O.28> Canara Robeco Arbitrage Fund will follow an active investment strategy and will make investments as per the asset allocation pattern of the Scheme. Under normal circumstances, the Scheme will predominantly invest in arbitrage opportunities between spot and futures prices of exchange traded equities and the arbitrage opportunities available within the derivative segment. Further, the Scheme may also invest in permitted debt and such other securities/instruments as may be permitted by SEBI from time to time as per the asset allocation pattern of the Scheme.
The Fund Manager will evaluate the difference between the price of a stock in the futures market and in the spot market. If the price of a stock in the futures market is higher than in the spot market, after adjusting for costs and taxes the scheme shall buy the stock in the spot market and sell the same stock in equal quantity in the futures market, simultaneously.
The Scheme will endeavour to build similar market neutral positions that offer an arbitrage potential. For example, buying the basket of index constituents in the cash or futures segment and selling the index futures, etc. The Scheme would also look to avail of opportunities between one futures contract and another. The scheme will endeavour to keep its net exposures neutral to the underlying direction of the market by maintaining completely hedged positions. In addition to stock specific futures, the scheme can also take offsetting positions in index futures of different calendar months.
• Derivative & Arbitrage Strategies: Derivatives are financial contracts of pre-determined fixed duration, whose values are derived from the value of an underlying primary financial instrument, index, such as interest rates, exchange rates and equities.
The Scheme may also invest in low risk derivatives strategies. These strategies can involve any combination of cash, futures and options.
The Scheme may invest in opportunities arising out of corporate actions announced in stocks that offer superior risk adjusted returns and Initial Public Offers (IPOs).
The derivative strategies that the Scheme may use include the following:
1. Cash Future Arbitrage: This strategy is employed when the price of the future is trading at a premium to the price of its underlying in spot market. The Scheme shall buy the stock in spot market and endeavour to simultaneously sell the future at a premium on a quantity neutral basis.
Buying the stock in spot market and selling the futures results into a hedge where the Scheme has locked in a spread and is not affected by the price movement of cash market and futures market. The arbitrage position can be continued till expiry of the future contracts. The future contracts are settled based on the last half an hour’s weighted average trade of the spot market. Thus, there is a convergence between the spot price and the futures market on expiry. This convergence helps the Scheme to generate the arbitrage return locked in earlier.
21On or before the date of expiry, if the price differential between the spot and futures position of the subsequent month maturity still remains attractive, the scheme may rollover the futures position and hold onto the position in the spot market. In case such an opportunity is not available, the scheme would liquidate the spot position and settle the futures position simultaneously.
Rolling over of the futures transaction means unwinding the short position in the futures of the current month and simultaneously shorting futures of the subsequent month maturity and holding onto the spot position.
2. Index Arbitrage: The Nifty 50 Index derives its value from fifty constituent stocks; the constituent stocks (in their respective weights) can be used to create a synthetic index matching the Nifty Index. Also, theoretically, the fair value of a future is equal to the spot price plus the cost of carry.
Theoretically, therefore, the pricing of Nifty Index futures should be equal to the pricing of the synthetic index created by futures on the underlying stocks.
Due to market imperfections, the index futures may not exactly correspond to the synthetic index futures. The Nifty Index futures normally trade at a discount to the synthetic Index due to large volumes of stock hedging being done using the Nifty Index futures giving rise to arbitrage opportunities.
One instance in which an index arbitrage opportunity exists is when Index future is trading at a discount to the index (spot) and the futures of constituent stocks are trading at a cumulative premium.
The fund manager shall endeavour to capture such arbitrage opportunities by taking long positions in the Nifty Index futures and short positions in the synthetic index (constituent stock futures).
Based on the opportunity, the reverse position can also be initiated.
Rollover: Rolling over of the futures transaction means unwinding the short position in the futures of the current month and shorting futures of the subsequent month maturity, while holding the spot position.
3. Portfolio Hedging: The Scheme may use exchange-traded derivatives to hedge the equity portfolio.
4. Other Arbitrage Derivative Strategies: The Scheme shall also invest in arbitrage opportunities arising out of corporate actions (e.g. – Mergers, Follow on Public Offer (FPO), delisting, open offers, etc.). These are just a few examples of arbitrage opportunities arising out of corporate actions. This is not an exhaustive list as every corporate action could offer a different and unique opportunity.
The Scheme may also use derivative instruments as may be introduced from time to time, with the underlying being any of the stocks in a recognized stock exchange.
The Scheme may deploy one or more of the above-mentioned derivative Strategies to the extent they are in line with the investment objective of the Scheme. • Strategy for investments in debt instruments: To achieve its investment objective, the Scheme may also invest, in permitted debt Instruments in line with asset allocation of the Scheme. Investments will be made in instruments, which in the opinion of the Fund Manager confirm to the internal broad guidelines provided in the Investment Policy. The Fund Manager will generally be guided by, but not restrained by, the ratings announced by various rating agencies and independent in-house assessment on the assets in the portfolio.
The fund management team with the support of research team will take an active view of the interest rate movement by keeping a close watch on various parameters of the Indian economy, as well as developments in global markets. Investment views / decisions will be taken on the basis of prevailing interest rate scenario, 22quality of the security / instrument (including the financial health of the issuer), maturity profile of the instrument, liquidity of the security, growth prospects of the company / industry and any other factor in the opinion of the fund management team.
• Investment in Mutual Fund Units: The Scheme may also invest in schemes managed by the AMC or in the schemes of other Mutual Funds, provided that aggregate inter-scheme investment made by all schemes managed by the AMC either in its own schemes or of any other Mutual Fund shall not exceed 5% or such other permitted limit, of the Net Asset Value of the Fund. No investment management fees shall be charged for investing in other schemes of the fund or in the schemes of any other Mutual Fund. Such investment shall be permitted only in mutual fund units of liquid, money market or schemes having Macaulay duration less than 1 year for meeting liquidity and margin requirements and such other instruments as may be permitted by SEBI from time to time.
• Overseas Securities: The Fund Manager has the discretion to invest in Overseas Securities as specified, in line with the asset allocation pattern of the Scheme and within stipulated limits and by adhering to various norms and regulations.
The Scheme shall invest in such other securities as permitted by the Regulations and as stated in the asset allocation pattern.
Procedure followed for investment decisions:
The Fund Manager of the Scheme is responsible for making buy / sell decisions for the Scheme's portfolio and seeks to develop a well-diversified portfolio taking into account the asset allocation pattern of the scheme along with risks that are associated with such investments. The investment decisions are made on an ongoing basis keeping in view the market conditions and other regulatory aspects.
The AMC has constituted an Investment Committee, currently comprising of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Risk Officer, Chief Investment Officer -Equities and Chief Investment Officer - Fixed Income that meets at periodic intervals. The Investment Committee’s role is to formulate broad investment strategies for the Scheme, review the performance of the Scheme and the general market outlook.
The Fund Manager is responsible for facilitating investment debate and a robust investment culture. The investment team would hold ongoing meetings as well as additional ad-hoc meetings as needed, to explore the investment thesis.
It is the responsibility of the AMC to seek to ensure that the investments are made as per the Regulatory guidelines, the investment objective of the Scheme and in the interest of the Unit holders of the Scheme.
The AMC will keep a record of all investment decisions in accordance with the guidelines issued by SEBI.
The AMC and Trustees will review the performance of the scheme in their Board meetings. The performance would be compared with the performance of the benchmark index and with peer group in the industry.
Portfolio Turnover Policy:
Purchase and Sale of securities attract transaction costs of the nature of brokerage, stamp duty, custodian transaction charges etc. Portfolio turnover is essential to regularly explore trading opportunities to optimize returns for the Scheme and enable portfolio restructuring when required.
23The Scheme will manage its portfolio taking into account the associated risks (such as interest / liquidity / redemption etc.) perceived / expected, so as to mitigate the risks by using adequate risk management techniques. The portfolio turnover policy will be aimed at enhancing the returns/growth.
The Scheme is open-ended, with subscriptions and redemptions expected on a daily basis, resulting in net inflow/outflow of funds, and on account of the various factors that affect portfolio turnover. If trading is done frequently (i.e. there is high portfolio turnover) then there may be an increase in costs such as brokerage, transaction costs etc. It is difficult to give an estimate, with any reasonable amount of accuracy.
Therefore, the Scheme has no specific target relating to portfolio turnover.
Risk Control:
Since investing requires disciplined risk management, the AMC would incorporate adequate safeguards for controlling risks in portfolio construction process. Stock specific risk will be minimized by investing only in those companies that have been thoroughly analyzed by the AMC.
Through adequate diversification of the portfolio, the AMC tries to reduce the risk. Diversification will also be achieved by spreading the investments over a diverse range of industries / sectors. The investments may be made in primary as well as secondary markets and the portfolio will be adequately diversified.
As a prudent measure, the AMC has broad internal investment norms and investments made through the scheme would be in accordance with the investment objectives of the Scheme and provisions of SEBI Regulations. The Risks and the corresponding risk mitigation strategies are provided under Section II.
D. HOW WILL THE SCHEME BENCHMARK ITS PERFORMANCE? <S.O.25>
The performance of the Scheme will be benchmarked with the following:
As per AMFI Tier I Benchmark:
Nifty 50 Arbitrage Index (TRI).
The Scheme will be benchmarked against Total Return variant of the Index.
Justification for use of Benchmark:
The NIFTY 50 Arbitrage Index aims to measure the performance of arbitrage strategies. The index measures performance of portfolio involving investment in equity and equivalent short position equity futures, short- term debt market investments and cash. The composition of the benchmark is such that, it is most suited for comparing performance of the Scheme.
Further, the above benchmark has been selected in accordance with paragraph 7.22 of SEBI Master Circular for Mutual Funds dated March 20, 2026, on ‘Benchmarks for Mutual Fund Schemes’.
The Trustee reserves the right to change the benchmark for evaluation of performance of the Scheme in conformity with the investment objective of Scheme and/or as prescribed by SEBI/AMFI from time to time, in accordance with applicable regulatory guidelines.

PART III- OTHER DETAILS A. COMPUTATION OF NAV < S.O. 42> The Mutual Fund shall compute the Net Asset Value (NAV) of each scheme in accordance with SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 2026. The AMC will calculate and disclose the first NAV of the Scheme within a period of 5 business days from the date of allotment. Subsequently, the NAV of the Scheme shall be computed on all business days.
The computation of NAV, valuation of securities / assets, accounting policies and standards would be in conformity with the SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 2026 and guidelines issued from time to time
The NAV per unit under the Scheme shall be calculated as follows: (Market or Fair Value of Scheme’s investments + Current assets - Current Liabilities and Provision) _________________________________________________________________ = NAV (in Rs. terms) (No. of Units outstanding under the Scheme on the valuation date) The price arrived shall be rounded off up to two decimals. The AMC reserves the right to calculate NAV more than two decimal places. Units will be allotted upto 3 decimals.
29An Illustration:
Assume that the Market or Fair Value of Scheme’s investments is Rs. 1,00,00,000; Current assets of the Scheme is Rs.25,00,000; Current Liabilities and Provisions is Rs. 15,00,000 and the No. of Units outstanding under the Scheme are 5,00,000.
Thus, the NAV will be calculated as:
NAV = 1,00,00,000 + 25,00,000 – 15,00,000 ____________________________ 5,00,000 Therefore, the NAV of the Scheme is Rs. 22.00.
The repurchase price of an open ended scheme shall not be lower than 97% of the NAV. < S.O. 47>
Methodology of calculation of repurchase price: For calculating the repurchase price, the exit load, if any, applicable at the time of investment shall be deducted from the applicable NAV of the Scheme.
Repurchase Price = Applicable NAV × (1 – Exit Load, if any)
For example: If the applicable NAV of the Scheme is Rs. 11 and the Exit Load applicable at the time of investment is 1% if redeemed before completion of 1 year from the date of allotment of units and the investor redeems units before completion of 1 year, then repurchase price will be calculated as follows:
Repurchase Price = 11 × (1 – 0.01 (i.e.1%) = Rs. 10.89
Methodology of calculation of sale price: The sale price shall be applicable NAV, subject to statutory levies applicable, if any.
For example: An investor invests Rs. 20,000/- and the current NAV is Rs. 20/- (assuming there is no statutory levy) then the sale/subscription price will be Rs. 20/- and the investor will receive 20000/20 = 1000 units.
For other details such as policies w.r.t computation of NAV, rounding off, investment in foreign securities, procedure in case of delay in disclosure of NAV etc. refer to SAI.
B. NEW FUND OFFER (NFO) EXPENSES These expenses are incurred for the purpose of various activities related to the NFO like sales and distribution fees paid marketing and advertising, registrar expenses, printing and stationary, bank charges etc. These expenses will be borne by the AMC and not by the scheme of Mutual Fund.

Brokerage costs incurred for the purpose of trade as per Regulation At actuals 66 (9) -(Upto 0.06 % of trade value in case of cash market transactions and 0.02% of trade value in case of derivatives transactions)-> (D) Transaction Cost incurred for the purpose of execution of trades as per At actuals Regulation 66 (10) -> (E) Maximum Total Expense Ratio (TER) permissible under Regulation 66 A+B+C+D+E ^Any other expenses which are directly attributable to the Schemes, may be charged within the overall limits as specified in the Regulations, except those expenses which are specifically prohibited as per Regulations.
As per Regulation 66(7) of the Regulations, the base expense ratio of the scheme shall be sum of expenses mentioned at sub-regulation (4) (i.e. investment and advisory fees), sub-regulation (5) (i.e. recurring expenses) and sub-regulation (6) (i.e. charges or commission or fees related to distribution of mutual fund schemes) but excludes statutory levy applicable, if any, on the said expenses and transaction cost specified 31under sub-regulation (10). The base expense ratio shall be subject to the limits specified under the Regulations.
As per Regulation 2(1) (aaa) of the Regulations, Total Expense Ratio means the ratio of total of all expenses charged to the investors of the scheme to the total asset under management of the scheme, as may be specified by SEBI. As per clause 11.2.4 of the Master Circular for Mutual Funds dated March 20, 2026, the
formula for TER shall be as follows: TER = Base Expense Ratio (BER) + Brokerage Cost + Transaction Cost incurred for the purpose of execution of trade + Statutory levies (including Goods and Services Tax).
As per Regulation 67(1) of the Regulations, the total of all expenses charged to the investors of the scheme, as mentioned under definition of ‘Total expense ratio’, shall be total of expense charged within the base limit specified under sub-regulation 7 of regulation 66, brokerage cost permitted under sub-regulation 9 of regulation 66, transaction cost incurred for the purpose of execution of trade as referred under sub- regulation 10 of regulation 66, and statutory levies charged to the investors. Further, as per Regulation 67(2) of the Regulations, no charges other than the base expense ratio, brokerage cost, transaction cost, statutory levy and exit load including levies as may be specified by SEBI, shall be charged to the investors.
Brokerage Cost: As per Regulation 66(9) of the Regulations, the scheme may charge expense incurred towards brokerage, for the purpose of execution of trade, over and above the base expense ratio subject to a maximum of 0.06 per cent of trade value in case of cash market transactions and 0.02 per cent of trade value in case of derivatives transactions. Expense charged towards brokerage, over and above the specified limit, shall be part of the base expense ratio limit specified above.
Transaction Cost: As per Regulation 66(10) of the Regulations, Transaction cost incurred for the purpose of execution of a trade shall mean regulatory levies and any other expenses charged by the stock exchanges, clearing corporation, and clearing house, as applicable. Such transaction costs shall not form part of the base expense ratio.
Investor Education and Awareness initiatives: As per Paragraph 11.9 of SEBI Master Circular for Mutual Funds dated March 20, 2026, the AMC shall annually set apart at least 2 basis points p.a. (i.e. 0.02% p.a.) on daily net assets of the Scheme within the limits of total expenses prescribed under Regulation 66(7) of SEBI
(MF) Regulations for investor education and awareness initiatives undertaken by the Fund.
In accordance with Regulation 66(6) of SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 2026 read with paragraph 11.6 of SEBI Master Circular for Mutual Funds dated March 20, 2026, the mutual fund distributors shall be eligible for additional commission on new investments / inflows from: < S.O. 46> • New individual investors (new PAN) from B-30 cities, at the mutual fund industry level;

The structure of additional commission shall be in accordance with the guidelines prescribed by SEBI in the aforesaid circular and such other Circulars/guidelines issued by SEBI/AMFI from time to time in this regard.
The expenses towards Investment Management and Advisory Fees under Regulation 66(4) and the various sub-heads of recurring expenses mentioned under Regulation 66(5) of SEBI (MF) Regulations are fungible in nature. Thus, there shall be no internal sub-limits within the expense ratio for expense heads mentioned under Regulation 66 (4) and (5) respectively.
Any expense other than those specified in sub-regulation (4) (i.e. investment and advisory fees), sub- regulation (5) (i.e. recurring expenses), sub regulation (6) (i.e. charges or commission or fees related to distribution of mutual fund schemes), sub-regulation (9) (i.e. brokerage cost) and sub-regulation (10) (i.e.
transaction cost) of the Regulations shall not be charged to the scheme and shall be borne by the AMC or trustee or sponsors.
32If any expense of the scheme is borne by asset management company or by the trustee or sponsors, the same shall be done only after the investment and advisory fees charged to the scheme, if any, is fully reversed.
The purpose of the above table is to assist the Investor in understanding the various costs and expenses that an Investor in the Scheme will bear directly or indirectly. The figures in the table above are estimates. The actual expenses that can be charged to the Scheme will be subject to limits prescribed from time to time under the SEBI (MF) Regulations.
#As per the Regulation 66 (7)(c), the Base Expense Ratio chargeable to the Scheme is as under:

For switches between the Plans i.e. between Regular and Direct Plan or vice versa, no load will be charged by the Scheme. However, exit load will be applicable if the units are switched-out / redeemed from the Scheme within the exit load period from the initial date of purchase. Exit load charged to the investors will be credited back to the scheme net of GST. The Investor is requested to check the prevailing Load structure of the Scheme before investing.
The distributors shall disclose all the commissions (in the form of trail commission or any other mode) payable to them for the different competing schemes of various mutual funds from amongst which the scheme is being recommended to the investor. For any change in load structure, AMC will issue an addendum and display it on the website/- Investor Service Centres.
34Any imposition or enhancement of Load in future shall be applicable on prospective investments only. At the time of changing the Load Structure following measures would be taken to avoid complaints from investors
about investment in the schemes without knowing the loads: i. A public notice would be given in respect of such changes. ii. The addendum detailing the changes would be attached to Scheme Information Document and Key Information Document. The addendum shall be sent via email to all the distributors / brokers /Investor Service Centre (ISC), so that the same can be provided along with the Scheme Information Documents and Key Information Documents till it is updated.
iii. Arrangements will be made to display the addendum in the Scheme Information Document in the form of a notice in all the Investor Service Centers and distributors / brokers’ office. iv. The introduction of the exit load along with the details may be stamped in the acknowledgement slip issued to the investors on submission of the application form and may also be disclosed in the statement of accounts issued after the introduction of such load.

The investor is requested to check the prevailing load structure of the scheme before investing.
The AMC / Trustee reserves the right to change / modify the Load structure, subject to the limits prescribed under the Regulations, if it so deems fit in the interest of investors and for the smooth and efficient functioning of the Mutual Fund.
Unitholder Transaction Expenses and Load:
The repurchase price of an open-ended scheme shall not be lower than 97% of the NAV. < S.O. 47> E. REQUIREMENT OF MINIMUM INVESTORS IN THE SCHEME The Scheme shall have a minimum of 20 investors and no single investor shall account for more than 25% of the corpus of the Scheme. However, if either/both of such limit(s) is breached during the NFO of the Scheme, it shall be ensured that within a period of three months or the end of the succeeding calendar quarter from the close of the NFO of the Scheme, whichever is earlier, the Scheme complies with these two conditions. In case the Scheme does not have a minimum of 20 investors in the stipulated period, the provisions of Regulation 36(2)(c) of the SEBI (MF) Regulations would become applicable automatically without any reference from SEBI and accordingly the Scheme shall be wound up and the units would be redeemed at Applicable NAV. The two conditions mentioned above shall also be complied within each subsequent calendar quarter thereafter, on an average basis, as specified by SEBI. If there is a breach of the 25% limit by any investor over the quarter, a rebalancing period of one month would be allowed and thereafter the investor who is in breach of the rule shall be given 15 calendar days notice to redeem his exposure over the 25 % limit. Failure on the part of the said investor to redeem his exposure over the 25 % limit within the aforesaid 15 calendar days would lead to automatic redemption by the Mutual Fund on the Applicable Net Asset Value on the 15th calendar day of the notice period. The Fund shall adhere to the requirements prescribed by SEBI from time to time in this regard.
35Section II I. Introduction A. Definitions/interpretation In this Scheme Information Document, the words and expressions shall have the meaning specified in the following link, unless the context otherwise requires.
https://www.canararobeco.com/documents/forms-downloads/disclosure-related-to-offer-documents/ B. Risk Factors
Scheme Specific Risk Factors: < S.O. 8> Some of the specific risk factors related to the Scheme include, but are not limited to the following:
I. Risks associated with investment in Equity and Equity related instruments:
Equity and equity related securities are volatile and prone to price fluctuations on a daily basis. The liquidity of investments made in the Scheme may be restricted by trading volumes and settlement periods.
Settlement periods may be extended significantly by unforeseen circumstances. The inability of the Scheme to make intended securities purchases, due to settlement problems, could cause the Scheme to miss certain investment opportunities. Similarly, the inability to sell securities held in the Scheme portfolio would result at times, in potential losses to the Scheme, should there be a subsequent decline in the value of securities held in the Scheme portfolio. The liquidity and valuation of the Scheme’s investments due to its holdings of unlisted Securities may be affected if they have to be sold prior to the target date for divestment. All investments involve risks and there can be no guarantee against loss resulting from an investment in any share of the Scheme, nor is there any assurance that the Scheme’s investment objective will be attained in respect of its overall performance. In certain circumstances, the right of the investors of the Scheme may be suspended. Consequently, the NAVs of units issued under the Scheme may be adversely affected.
Further, the Equity and Equity Related Instruments are risk capital and are subordinate in the right of payment to other securities including debt securities, the value of the Scheme investments may be affected by interest rates, currency exchange rates, changes in law / policies of the government, taxation laws and political, economic or other developments which may have an adverse bearing on individual Securities, a specific sector or all sectors. Investments in equity and equity related securities involve a degree of risk and investors should not invest in the equity Schemes unless they can afford to take the risk of losing their investment.
The Fund Manager of the Scheme may invest in the Securities of smaller, lesser-known companies. These investments may involve greater risk and the possibility of greater portfolio price volatility than investing in larger, more mature or better-known firms. Amongst other reasons for the greater price volatility of Securities of small companies and unseasoned stocks are the less certain growth prospects of smaller firms, the lower degree of liquidity of the markets for such stocks, and the greater sensitivity of small companies to changing economic conditions. For example, these companies are associated with higher investment risk than that normally associated with larger firms due to the greater business risks of small size and limited product lines, markets, distribution channels and financial and managerial resources. Such Securities, including those of newer or recently restructured companies or those which may have experienced financial difficulties, may be more volatile in price than larger capitalized stocks. Securities which are not quoted on the stock exchanges are inherently illiquid in nature and carry a larger liquidity risk in comparison with securities that are listed on the exchanges or offer other exit options to the investors, including put options.
36The value of the Scheme investments may be affected by factors affecting capital markets generally, such as price and volume volatility in the stock markets, interest rates, currency exchange rates, foreign investments, changes in government policy, political, economic or other developments and closure of the stock exchanges.
Trading volumes, settlement periods and transfer procedures may restrict liquidity of investments in equity and equity related securities. Different segments of the Indian financial markets have different settlement periods and such periods may be extended significantly by unforeseen circumstances. The length of the settlement may affect the Scheme in the event the Scheme has to meet large number of redemption.
II. Risks associated with investments in Debt Instruments as permitted under the Scheme:
Price-Risk or Interest - Rate Risk: Debt instruments and money market instruments run price - risk or interest - rate risk. Generally, when interest rates rise, prices of existing Debt instruments fall and when interest rates drop, such prices increase. The extent of fall or rise in the prices depends upon the coupon and maturity of the security. It also depends upon the yield level at which the security is being traded.
Re - investment Risk: Investments in debt instruments may carry re - investment risk as interest rates prevailing on the coupon payment or maturity due dates may differ from the original coupon rate.
Consequently, the proceeds may get invested at a lower rate.
Liquidity or Marketability Risk: This refers to the ease with which security can be sold at or near to its valuation yield-to-maturity (YTM). The primary measure of liquidity risk is the spread between the bid price and the offer price quoted by a dealer. Liquidity risk is today characteristic of the Indian fixed income market.
The liquidity of a bond may change, depending on market conditions, leading to changes in the liquidity premium attached to the price of the bond. At the time of selling the security, the security can become illiquid, leading to loss in value of the portfolio.
Credit Risk: This is the risk associated with the issuer of a debt instrument or a money market instrument defaulting on coupon payments or in paying back the principal amount on maturity. Even when there is no default, the price of a security may change with expected changes in the credit rating of the issuer. It must, however, be noted that where the Scheme invests in Government securities, there is no credit risk to that extent. However, debt and money market instruments carry a higher amount of credit risk than Government securities. Within debt and money market instruments, there are different levels of safety and an instrument rated higher by a particular rating agency is safer than one rated lower by the same rating agency.
Liquidity Risk on account of unlisted securities: The liquidity and valuation of the Scheme investments due to their holdings of unlisted securities may be affected if they have to be sold prior to their maturity date.
The unlisted security can go down in value before the maturity date and selling of these securities before the maturity date can lead to losses in the portfolio.
Settlement Risk: Debt instruments run the risk of settlement which can adversely affect the ability of the fund house to swiftly execute trading strategies which can lead to adverse movements in NAV.
Different types of securities in which the scheme would invest, as given in the Scheme Information Document carry different levels and types of risk. Accordingly, the scheme’s risk may increase or decrease depending upon its investment pattern 37III. Risk associated with investing in Derivatives:
a. General Risk Factors associated with derivatives: < S.O. 28> As and when the Scheme trades in the derivatives market, there are risk factors and issues concerning the use of derivatives that investors should understand. Derivative products are specialized instruments that require investment techniques and risk analysis different from those associated with stocks and bonds. The use of a derivative requires an understanding not only of the underlying instrument but also of the derivative itself. Derivatives require the maintenance of adequate controls to monitor the transactions entered into, the ability to assess the risk that a derivative adds to the portfolio and the ability to forecast price or interest rate movements correctly. There is a possibility that loss may be sustained by the portfolio as a result of the failure of another party (usually referred as the "counter party") to comply with the terms of the derivatives contract. Other risk in using derivatives include the risk of mispricing or improper valuation of derivatives and the inability of derivatives to correlate perfectly with underlying assets, rates and indices.
Derivatives are highly leveraged instruments and can provide disproportionate gains as well as disproportionate losses to the investor. Execution of such strategies depends upon the ability of the Fund Manager to identify such opportunities. Identification and execution of the strategies to be pursued by the Fund Manager involve uncertainty and decision of Fund Manager may not always be profitable. No assurance can be given that the Fund Manager will be able to identify or execute such strategies. < S.O. 28> The risk associated with the use of derivatives is different from or possibly greater than the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. < S.O. 28> Derivatives may be riskier than other types of investments because they may be more sensitive to changes in economic or market conditions than other types of investments and could result in the losses that significantly exceed the Scheme’s original investment. Certain derivatives may give rise to a form of leverage.
Due to the low margin deposits normally required in trading financial derivative instruments, an extremely high degree of leverage is typical for trading in financial derivative instruments. As a result, the Scheme may be more volatile than if the Scheme had not been leveraged because the leverage tends to exaggerate the effect of any increase or decrease in the value of the Scheme’s portfolio. A relatively small price movement in a derivative contract may result in substantial losses to the investor.
Derivatives are also subject to the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. The use of derivatives for hedging or risk management purposes or to increase income or gain may not be successful; resulting in losses to the Scheme and the cost of such strategies may reduce the Scheme’s returns and increase the Scheme’s potential for loss.
The Scheme may use derivatives to hedge market and currency risk, and for the purposes of efficient portfolio management. The use of derivatives may expose the Scheme to a higher degree of risk. In particular, derivative contracts can be highly volatile, and the amount of initial margin is generally small relative to the size of the contract so that transactions are geared.
Trading in derivatives has the following risks: i. An exposure to derivatives can also limit the profits from a genuine investment transaction. ii. Efficiency of a derivative market depends on the development of a liquid and efficient market for underlying securities.
iii. The Scheme may use options and futures on securities and indices for the purpose of efficient portfolio management. Transactions in futures and options carry a high degree of risk. A relatively small market movement will have a proportionately larger impact which may work for or against the investor. The 38placing of certain orders which are intended to limit losses to certain amounts may not be effective because market conditions may make it impossible to execute such orders.
b. Risk factors affecting the Arbitrage Strategies followed by this Scheme are as under:
In case of arbitrage trades, under defensive circumstances it will be difficult to square off the transaction due to liquidity being poor in the underlying stock, stock futures or options market. However, the fund will aim at taking exposure only into liquid stocks/Options where there will be minimal risk to square off the transaction. The fund will ensure this by analyzing historical data of volume and open interest.
Open Position Risk: If the Fund is not able to have a net market-neutral position due to any operational reasons, the Scheme at times is exposed to movement in the prices of the underlying. The Scheme will endeavour to cover or square off the positions as soon as possible.
Opportunities Risk: For any arbitrage strategy, where the cost of carry reduces drastically (in a depressed market conditions), there will be less opportunity for fund manager to generate returns that can exceed money market returns. In absence of profitable arbitrage opportunities available in the market, the Scheme may predominantly invest in permitted debt securities as per the asset allocation pattern.
Execution Risk: The prices which are seen on the screen need not be the same at which execution will take place. Mark to Market Risk Options arbitrage is a risk free strategy, however there could be a market to market loss that would arise and additional margin may need to be provided for the same.
Basis Risk: In extraordinary circumstances, the Fund Manager may have to unwind positions before the expiry at a basis which maybe higher than the initiation basis to meet redemptions. Premature unwinding of the position might result in the locked-in profits not getting realized.
Risk factor specifically affecting Index Arbitrage:
Tracking Error Risk: This risk is specific to Index arbitrage. Corporate actions such as demergers might result in the weights of the index stocks to change. This might lead to a tracking error affecting the returns to a certain extent.
The success of the cash futures arbitrage strategy under the Scheme will depend on the ability of the fund manager to identify opportunities due to various price differentials in the cash and derivative market. No assurance can be given that Fund Manager will be able to locate investment opportunities or to correctly exploit price discrepancies in the capital markets. The frequency of trades may result into high portfolio turnover and consequently will lead to high transaction cost.
IV. Risk associated with Securities Lending:
Securities lending may involve the risk of default on the part of the borrower. However, this is unlikely to happen if the stock lending is carried out for stocks which are in dematerialized form and through an authorized stock lending scheme, subject to appropriate Regulations. The Investment Manager perceives such situations to be exceptional in nature. Although the Stock Market in India is still developing, considering the good demand for listed / quoted Equity Shares of reputed companies, the Scheme(s) may choose to meet repurchase needs through temporary borrowings, within the permissible limits.
V. Risks associated with investing in Tri Party Repo through CCIL (TREPS):
All the market repo and Tri-party repo are settled through Clearing Corporation of India Limited (CCIL).
CCIL acts as a Central Counterparty (CCP) to all trades received for settlement.
39Risk of exposure in the TREPS, Repos & Reverse Repos in Government Securities/Treasury Bills emanates mainly on two counts – a. Risk of failure by a lender to make funds available or by a borrower to provide adequate collateral security to accept the fund at the first leg of borrowing and lending under Tri-party Repo transaction or Repo transactions in Government Securities / treasury Bills.
b. Risk of default by a borrower in repayment.
VI. Risk factors associated with Creation of Segregated Portfolio:
Investor holding units of segregated portfolio may not be able to liquidate their holding till the time recovery of money from the issuer. Security comprising of segregated portfolio may not realise any value.
Listing of units of segregated portfolio in recognised stock exchange does not necessarily guarantee their liquidity. There may not be active trading of units in the stock market. Further, trading price of units on the stock market may be significantly lower than the prevailing NAV.
VII. Risk factors associated with investment in Foreign Securities: < S.O. 11> The Scheme may invest in overseas / foreign securities with the approval of RBI/SEBI, subject to such guidelines as may be issued by RBI/SEBI. The net assets, distributions and income of the scheme may be affected adversely by fluctuations in the value of certain foreign currencies relative to the Indian Rupee to the extent of investments in these securities. Repatriation of such investment may also be affected by changes in the regulatory and political environments. The scheme’s NAV may also be affected by a fluctuation in the general and specific level of interest rates internationally, or the change in the credit profiles of the issuers.
Overseas investments are subject to a limits given under asset allocation pattern and the limits prescribed in the SEBI Master Circular for Mutual Funds as amended from time to time..
As and when the investment limits at Mutual Fund level/Industry level are exhausted or nearing exhaustion, the scheme may temporarily suspend deployment of funds in overseas funds/securities.
Subject to necessary approvals and within the investment objectives of the Scheme, the Scheme may invest in overseas markets which carry risks related to fluctuations in the foreign exchange rates, the nature of the securities market of the country, repatriation of capital due to exchange controls and political circumstances.
To manage risks associated with foreign currency and interest rate exposure, the Fund may use derivatives for efficient portfolio management, hedging, non-hedging purpose and portfolio rebalancing and in accordance with conditions as may be stipulated under the Regulations and by RBI from time to time.
Investment in Foreign Securities involves a currency risk. To the extent that the assets of the Scheme will be invested in securities denominated in foreign currencies, the Indian Rupee equivalent of the net assets, distributions and income may be adversely affected by changes in the value of certain foreign currencies relative.
VIII. Risk factors Associated with Investments in REITs :
Market Risk: REITs Investments are volatile and subject to price fluctuations on a daily basis owing to factors impacting the underlying assets. AMC/Fund Manager’s will do the necessary due diligence but actual market movements may be at variance with the anticipated trends.
Liquidity Risk: As the liquidity of the investments made by the Scheme could, at times, be restricted by trading volumes, settlement periods, dissolution of the trust, potential delisting of units on the exchange etc, the time taken by the Mutual Fund for liquidating the investments in the scheme may be high in the event 40of immediate redemption requirement. Investment in such securities may lead to increase in the scheme portfolio risk.
Reinvestment Risk: Investments in REITs may carry reinvestment risk as there could be repatriation of funds by the Trusts in form of buyback of units or IDCW pay-outs, etc. Consequently, the proceeds may get invested in assets providing lower returns.
Regulatory/Legal Risk: REITs being new asset class, rights of unit holders such as right to information etc may differ from existing capital market asset classes under Indian Law.
IX. Risk associated with investing in mutual fund units (as permitted by SEBI from time to time) Investment in units of Mutual Fund scheme involves investment risks including the possible loss of principal.
As the price / value / interest rates of the underlying securities in which the mutual fund scheme invests fluctuates, the value of units of mutual fund scheme may go up or down. The value of underlying securities may be affected, inter-alia, by changes in the market, interest rates, changes in credit rating, trading volumes, settlement periods etc. The NAV is also exposed to Price/Interest-Rate Risk and Credit Risk and may be affected inter-alia, by liquidity in the securities market. Investment in units of mutual fund scheme is also exposed to risk of suspension of subscriptions / redemptions of the units, change in fundamental attributes etc. Since the Scheme may invest in schemes of Mutual Funds (as per the asset allocation pattern), scheme specific risk factors of each such mutual fund schemes will be applicable to the Scheme portfolio.
X. Other Risks: a) Stock Market Fluctuations:
Investors may note that the value of their investment may fall as well as rise and they may get back less than they originally invested. The value of equity securities may go down as well as up in response to the performance of individual companies and general market conditions. The securities exchange on which the shares may be listed may have the right to suspend or limit trading in all securities which it lists. Such a suspension would expose the Scheme to losses and delays in its ability to redeem units of the Scheme.
b) Income Distribution cum Capital Withdrawal (Dividends):
The Scheme may distribute not only investment income, but also realised capital gains or capital.
Where capital is distributed, this will result in a corresponding reduction in the value of units of the Scheme, and a reduction in the potential for long-term capital growth. c) Warrants:
The Scheme may invest in warrants; the values of these warrants are likely to fluctuate more than the prices of the underlying securities because of the greater volatility of warrant prices.
In the event of substantial investment by the Sponsor/s, or its associates in the Scheme, any redemption by these entities may have an impact on the performance of the Scheme.
Canara Robeco Mutual Fund will not be responsible for any loss of tax benefits in the event of winding up of the Scheme or for any amendments to the tax laws that may affect the tax benefits available under the Scheme. The tax benefits are based on the present laws and rules in force.
C. Risk Mitigation strategies: < S.O. 9> Since investing requires disciplined risk management, the AMC would incorporate adequate safeguards for controlling risks in portfolio construction process.
41a) Equity and Equity related Instruments:
Risk Description Risk Mitigation Strategy
Market Risk: The scheme is vulnerable to movements in Market risk is a risk which is inherent to the prices of securities invested by the scheme, which schemes investing in equity and equity- could have a material bearing on the overall returns from related instruments. The scheme may use the scheme. The value of the Scheme’s investments, may derivatives to limit this risk.
be affected generally by factors affecting securities markets, such as price and volume, volatility in the capital markets, interest rates, currency exchange rates, changes in policies of the Government, taxation laws or any other appropriate authority policies and other political and economic developments which may have an adverse bearing on individual securities, a specific sector or all sectors including equity and debt markets.
Liquidity Risk: The liquidity of the Scheme’s investments is The fund seeks to control such risk by inherently restricted by trading volumes in the securities investing in such stocks having strong in which it invests. fundamentals, sound financial strength and superior quality of management and highly liquid papers. The fund will try to maintain a proper asset-liability match to ensure redemption payments are made on time and not affected by illiquidity of the underlying stocks.
Derivatives Risk: As and when the Scheme trades in the The fund has provision for using derivative derivatives market there are risk factors and issues instruments for portfolio balancing and concerning the use of derivatives that Investors should hedging purposes. Investments in derivative understand. Derivative products are specialized instruments will be used as per local (RBI instruments that require investment techniques and risk and SEBI) regulatory guidelines. The fund analyses different from those associated with stocks and will endeavor to maintain adequate controls bonds. The use of a derivative requires an understanding to monitor the derivatives transactions not only of the underlying instrument but also of the entered into.
derivative itself.

New bank accounts can only be registered 70using the designated “Multiple Bank Accounts Registration Form¨.
If Unit holder(s) provide a new and unregistered bank mandate or a change of bank mandate request with specific redemption/ IDCW payment request (with or without necessary supporting documents), such bank account will not be considered for payment of redemption/ IDCW proceeds, or the Mutual Fund withhold the payment for up to 10 calendar days to ensure validation of new bank mandate mentioned. Any request without the necessary documents will be treated invalid and will not be acted upon and any financial transaction, including redemptions, will be carried with the previously registered details only. Valid change of bank mandate requests with supporting documents will be processed within ten days of documents reaching the head office of the Registrar and any financial transaction request received in the interim will be carried based on the previously registered details.
Investors are requested to note the following with respect to the
Multiple Bank Registration Facility:
