C. WHAT ARE THE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES?
• The scheme follows an active investment strategy.
Consolidated
Std Obs.27 • The Scheme seeks to generate long term capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of equity,
debt & money market instruments, Exchange Traded Commodity Derivatives / Units of Gold ETFs / Silver
ETFs & units of REITs/InvITs.
• The scheme seeks to benefit from the concept of asset allocation. The aim of asset allocation is to provide
superior risk adjusted returns through diversification across various asset classes like equity, debt and money
market instruments, Exchange Traded Commodity Derivatives / Units of Gold ETFs / Silver ETFs & units
of REITs/InvITs which have historically had low correlation with each other.
• The investment objective of the Scheme is to seek long-term capital appreciation by investing across diverse
asset classes such as equity, debt, and commodities. The Scheme employs a systematic, rules-based
investment approach supported by a proprietary framework named SHAASTRA (Strategic Holistic Asset
Allocation and Systematic Technical Risk Assessment), utilizing inputs such as fundamental data,
macroeconomic indicators, valuations, and asset price movements. Asset allocation decisions within the
Scheme are guided by this structured framework, which dynamically incorporates a range of relevant inputs.
SHAASTRA helps the Scheme in systematically identifying opportunities across varying market
environments, maintaining flexibility in asset allocation. The SHAASTRA framework will continue to
evolve over time; however, its underlying philosophy and thought process will remain consistent. The
structured investment process provided by SHAASTRA facilitates an objective assessment and consistent
decision-making process, minimizing behavioral biases. By analyzing market data, economic cycles, and
asset-specific information, SHAASTRA aids in proactively identifying trends and potential risks, allowing
dynamic adjustments in exposures to equity, debt, and commodities.
Although the investment strategy is predominantly driven by the structured data-driven framework provided
by SHAASTRA, the final investment decisions are made by the Fund Manager. The Fund Manager retains
the discretion to interpret the data contextually and adjust allocations in line with the Scheme’s objectives,
prevailing market conditions, and anticipated future developments to best serve the interest of investors.
This integrated approach is designed to offer flexibility and adaptability to changing economic scenarios,
aiming to optimize returns across market cycles.
(Detailed definition and applicable regulations/guidelines for each instrument is included in Section II)
Though every endeavour will be made to achieve the objective of the Scheme, the AMC/Sponsors/Trustee
does not guarantee that the investment objective of the Scheme will be achieved. No guaranteed returns are
being offered under the Scheme.
Derivative products are leveraged instruments and can provide disproportionate gains as well as disproportionate
Consolidated
Std Obs.28 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. The risks associated with the use of derivatives are different from or
possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments.
22For detailed derivative strategies, please refer to SAI.
Portfolio Turnover Policy
Portfolio turnover is defined as lesser of purchases and sales as a percentage of the average corpus of the Scheme
during a specified period of time. Portfolio turnover in the scheme will be a function of market opportunities. The
scheme is open-end scheme. It is expected that there would be a number of subscriptions and repurchases on a daily
basis. Consequently, it is difficult to estimate with any reasonable measure of accuracy, the likely turnover in the
portfolio. The AMC will endeavour to optimise portfolio turnover to optimise risk adjusted return keeping in mind
the cost associated with it. A high portfolio turnover rate is not necessarily a drag on portfolio performance and may
be representative of arbitrage opportunities that exist for securities held in the portfolio rather than an indication of
change in AMC’s view on a security etc. However, the AMC will take advantage of the opportunities that present
themselves from time to time because of the inefficiencies in the securities markets.
D. HOW WILL THE SCHEME BENCHMARK ITS PERFORMANCE?
Consolidated
Std Obs.25 Benchmark (Total Returns Index): Nifty 500 TRI (60%) CRISIL Composite Bond Fund Index (30%)
Domestic Gold Prices (5%) Domestic Silver Prices (5%) The Trustees have adopted Nifty 500 TRI (60%)
CRISIL Composite Bond Fund Index (30%) Domestic Gold Prices (5%) Domestic Silver Prices (5%) as the
benchmark index.
Justification for Benchmark:
This blended benchmark has been selected to appropriately reflect the diversified investment
strategy and risk-return characteristics of the fund, which invests across equity, debt, and commodity
asset classes. The rationale for each component is detailed below:
1. Nifty 500 TRI (60%) – Equity Allocation
The fund maintains a significant allocation towards Indian equities across market capitalizations.
The Nifty 500 TRI a broad-based and well-diversified equity benchmark covering large-cap, mid-
cap, and small-cap segments. This aligns well with the fund’s equity allocation strategy.
2. CRISIL Composite Bond Fund Index (30%) – Debt Allocation
This index reflects a diversified mix of government securities, corporate bonds, and money market
instruments, which is in line with the fund’s debt strategy. It provides a reliable proxy for interest rate
trends and credit risk in the Indian fixed income market.
3. Domestic Gold Prices (5%) – Gold Exposure
Gold serves as a strategic asset within the portfolio aim to hedge against inflation, currency risk, and
market volatility. The inclusion of domestic gold prices in the benchmark helps capture the return
dynamics of this non-correlated asset class. This ensures performance measurement reflects the fund’s
exposure to physical or financial gold instruments (ETFs).
4. Domestic Silver Prices (5%) – Silver Exposure:
23Silver is included to provide additional diversification and potential upside linked to industrial demand
and precious metals performance. Domestic silver prices as part of the benchmark mirror the returns
from this commodity exposure, enabling a more accurate and holistic comparison of fund performance.
Further, the fund manager aims to maintain minimum 65% in the equity and it will go below 65 % (upto
10% in line with the asset allocation of the fund) only for the defensive consideration.
As per its investment objective, the investment would primarily be in Securities which are constituents of the
benchmark index. Thus, the composition of the aforesaid benchmark index is such that it is most suited for
comparing performance of the Scheme. The Trustees reserves right to change benchmark in future for measuring
performance of the Scheme subject to SEBI Mutual Fund Regulations, 1996 and circulars issued by SEBI from
time to time.
The AMC / Trustee reserves the right to change / modify the benchmark by issuing an addendum.

26Part III- OTHER DETAILS
A. COMPUTATION OF NAV
The NAV of the Units of the Scheme will be computed by dividing the net assets of the Scheme by the
number of Units outstanding on the valuation date. The Fund shall value its investments according to the
valuation norms, as specified in Schedule VIII of the Regulations, or such norms as may be prescribed by
SEBI from time to time.
All expenses and incomes accrued up to the valuation date shall be considered for computation of NAV.
For this purpose, major expenses like management fees and other periodic expenses would be accrued on a
day to day basis. The minor expenses and income will be accrued on a periodic basis, provided the nondaily
accrual does not affect the NAV calculations by more than 1%.
Any changes in securities and in the number of units be recorded in the books not later than the first valuation
date following the date of transaction. If this is not possible given the frequency of the Net Asset Value
disclosure, the recording may be delayed upto a period of seven days following the date of the transaction,
provided that as a result of the non-recording, the Net Asset Value calculations shall not be affected by more
than 1%.
In case the Net Asset Value of a scheme differs by more than 1%, due to non - recording of the transactions,
the investors or scheme/s as the case may be, shall be paid the difference in amount as follows:-
(i) If the investors are allotted units at a price higher than Net Asset Value or are given a price lower than Net
Asset Value at the time of sale of their units, they shall be paid the difference in amount by the scheme.
(ii) If the investors are charged lower Net Asset Value at the time of purchase of their units or are given higher
Net Asset Value at the time of sale of their units, asset management company shall pay the difference in
amount to the scheme. The asset management company may recover the difference from the investors.
NAV of units under the Scheme shall be calculated as shown below:
NAV (Rs.) =
Market or Fair Value of + Current Assets - Current Liabilities and Provisions
Scheme's investments including Accrued including accrued expenses
Income
No. of Units outstanding under Scheme
The NAV of the Scheme will be calculated upto four decimal places and will be declared on each business
day. The valuation of the Scheme’s assets and calculation of the Scheme’s NAV shall be subject to audit
on an annual basis and shall be subject to such regulations as may be prescribed by SEBI from time to time.
Consolidated Illustration:
Std Obs.42 Assume that the Market or Fair Value of Scheme’s investments is Rs. 1,00,00,000; Current asset 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:
27NAV = = 22.0000
Therefore, the NAV of the scheme is Rs. 22.0000
While determining the price of the units, the mutual fund shall ensure that the repurchase price of an open
ended scheme is not lower than 95 per cent of the Net Asset Value.
Valuation of the scheme’s assets, calculation of the scheme’s NAV and the accounting policies & standards
will be subject to such norms and guidelines that SEBI may prescribe from time to time. For the detailed
Valuation Policy and the accounting policy of the AMC, please refer the Statement of Additional Information.

I. Introduction
A. Definitions/interpretation
Consolidated For detailed description please click the link: https://www.growwmf.in/downloads/sid
Std Obs.08
B. Risk factors
1. Risk associated with Equity and Equity Related Instruments:
Equity and Equity Related Instruments by nature are volatile and prone to price fluctuations on a daily basis due to
macro and micro economic factors. The value of Equity and Equity Related Instruments may fluctuate due to factors
affecting the securities markets such as volume and volatility in the capital markets, interest rates, currency exchange
rates, changes in law/policies of the Government, taxation laws, political, economic or other developments, general
decline in the Indian markets, which may have an adverse impact on individual securities, a specific sector or all
sectors. Consequently, the NAVs of the 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. Equity and Equity Related Instruments listed on the stock exchange carry lower liquidity
risk; however, the Scheme’s ability to sell these investments is limited by the overall trading volume on the stock
exchanges. In certain cases, 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’s portfolio may
result, at times, in potential losses to the Scheme, should there be a subsequent decline in the value of securities held
in the Scheme’s portfolio. Further, the volatility of medium / small - capitalization stocks may be higher in
comparison to liquid large capitalization stocks.
2. Risk associated with Fixed Income and Money Market Instruments:
Interest - Rate Risk
Fixed Income and Money Market Instruments run interest-rate risk. Generally, when interest rates rise, prices of
existing fixed income securities fall and when interest rate falls, the prices increase. The extent of rise or fall in the
price is a function of existing coupon, days to maturity, increase or decrease in the level of interest, credit quality,
demand and supply. However, in case of Government securities credit risk remains zero, their prices are influenced
by the movement in interest rates in the financial system. In case of floating rate instruments, an additional risk
could arise because of changes in spreads of floating rate instruments. With increase in spread of floating rate
instruments, the price can fall and with decrease in spread of floating rate instruments, the prices can rise. Moreover,
the floating rate instruments having a periodical interest rate reset carry lower interest rate risk compared to a fixed
rate debt security. However, in the falling interest rate scenario, the returns on floating rate debt instruments may
not be better than those on fixed rate debt instruments.
Credit Risk
Credit risk or default risk refers to the risk that the issuer of a fixed income security may default on interest payment
or even in paying back the principal amount on maturity. Even where no default occurs, the price of a security may
be affected because of change in the credit rating of the issuer/instrument and the price of a security goes down if
the credit rating agency downgrades the rating of the issuer. In case of Government Securities, there is minimal
34credit risk to that extent. Lower rated or unrated securities are more likely to react to developments affecting the
market and credit risk than the highly rated securities which react primarily to movements in the general level of
interest rates. Lower rated or unrated securities also tend to be more sensitive to economic conditions than higher
rated securities.
Liquidity or Marketability Risk
The ability of the Scheme to execute sale/purchase order is dependent on the liquidity or marketability. The primary
measure of liquidity risk is the spread between the bid price and the offer price quoted by a dealer. The securities
that are listed on the stock exchange carry lower liquidity risk, but the ability to sell these securities is limited by the
overall trading volumes. Further, different segments of Indian financial markets have different settlement cycles and
may be extended significantly by unforeseen circumstances. Securities which are not quoted on the stock
exchange(s) may be illiquid and can carry higher liquidity risk in comparison with securities which are listed on the
stock exchange(s) and offer exit option to the investor including put option. The Scheme would invest in the
securities which are not listed but offer attractive yields. This may however increase the risk of the portfolio.
Re-investment Risk
This refers to the interest rate risk at which the intermediate cash flows received from the securities in the Scheme
including maturity proceeds are reinvested. Investments in fixed income securities may carry re-investment risk as
interest rates prevailing on the interest or maturity due dates may differ from the original coupon of the debt security.
Consequently, the proceeds may get invested at a lower rate.
3. Risk Factor associated with investing in Securities Segment and Tri-party Repo trade settlement Clearing
Corporation of India Ltd. (‘CCIL’) is providing clearing and settlement services, for Triparty Repo trades in
Government Securities, under its Securities Segment. CCIL would act as a Central Counterparty to all the borrow
and lend Triparty Repo trades received by it for settlement. CCIL would also be performing the role responsibilities
of Triparty Repo Agent, in terms of Repurchase transactions (Repo) (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2018 as amended
from time to time. CCIL would settle the Triparty Repo trades, in terms of its Securities Segment Regulations. The
funds settlement of members is achieved by multilateral netting of the funds position in Triparty Repo with the funds
position in Outright and Market Repo and settling in the books of RBI for members who maintain an RBI Current
Account. In respect of other members, funds settlement is achieved in the books of Settlement Bank. Securities
settlement for Triparty Repo trades shall be achieved in the Gilt Account of the Member maintained with CCIL.
Securities obligation for outright and market repo trades shall be settled in the SGL / CSGL account of the Member
with RBI. Groww Mutual Fund is a member of securities segment and Tri-party Repo trade settlement of the CCIL.
Since all transactions of the Fund in government securities and in Tri-party Repo trades are settled centrally through
the infrastructure and settlement systems provided by CCIL, it reduces the settlement and counterparty risks
considerably for transactions in the said segments. To mitigate the potential losses arising in case any member
defaults in settling the transactions routed through CCIL, CCIL maintains a Default Fund. CCIL shall maintain two
separate Default Funds in respect of its securities segment, one to meet the losses airing out of any default by its
members from outright and repo trades and other for meeting losses arising out of any default by its members from
Triparty Repo trades. In case any clearing member fails to honor his settlement obligations, the Default Fund is
utilized to complete the settlement applying the Default Waterfall Sequence. As per the said waterfall mechanism,
after the defaulter’s margins and defaulter’s contribution to default fund have been appropriated, CCIL’s
contribution is used to meet the losses. Post utilization of CCIL’s contribution, if there is still a loss to be met, then
contribution of non-defaulting members to Default Fund is utilized to meet the said loss. The Scheme is subject to
the risk of losing initial margin and contribution to Default Fund in the event of failure of any settlement obligation.
Further the Scheme’s contribution is allowed to be used to meet the residual loss in case of default by the other
clearing member (the defaulting member). Further, CCIL periodically prescribes a list of securities eligible for
contribution as collaterals by members. Presently, all Central Government Securities and Treasury Bills are accepted
as collaterals by CCIL. The above risk factor may undergo a change in case the CCIL notifies securities other than
Government of India Securities as eligible for contributions as collateral.
354. Risk Factor associated with investing in Tier I and Tier II Bonds:
Tier I and Tier II Bonds are unsecured and the RBI prescribes certain restrictions in relation to the terms of these
Bonds:
Tier I and Tier II bonds are unsecured in nature. The claims of the Bondholders shall
(i) be subordinated to the claims of all depositors and general creditors of the Bank;
(ii) neither be secured nor covered by any guarantee of the Issuer or its related entity or other arrangement that
legally or economically enhances the seniority of the claim vis-a-vis creditors of the Bank;
(iii) Unless the terms of any subsequent issuance of bonds/debentures by the Bank specifies that the claims of such
subsequent bond holders are senior or subordinate to the Bonds issued under the Disclosure Document or unless the
RBI specifies otherwise in its guidelines, the claims of the Bondholders shall be pari passu with claims of holders
of such subsequent debentures/bond issuances of the Bank; (iv) rank pari passu without preference amongst
themselves and other subordinated debt eligible for inclusion in Tier 1 / Tier 2 Capital as the case may be. The Bonds
are not redeemable at the option of the Bondholders or without the prior consent of RBI. The Bonds (including all
claims, demands on the Bonds and interest thereon, whether accrued or contingent) are issued subject to loss
absorbency features applicable for non-equity capital instruments issued in terms of Basel III Guidelines including
in compliance with the requirements of Annex 5 thereof and are subject to certain loss absorbency features as
described in bond prospectus and required of Tier 1 / Tier 2 instruments at the Point of Non Viability as provided
for in Annex 16 of the aforesaid Basel III Guidelines as amended from time to time. The Bonds are essentially non-
equity regulatory instruments, forming part of a Bank's capital, governed by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines
and issued under the issuance and listing framework given under Chapter VI of the SEBI (Issue and Listing of Non-
Convertible Redeemable Preference Shares) Regulations, 2013 (“NCRPS Regulations”). These instruments have
certain unique features which, inter-alia, grant the issuer (i.e. banks, in consultation with RBI) a discretion in terms
of writing down the principal / interest, to skip interest payments, to make an early recall etc. without commensurate
right for investors to legal recourse, even if such actions of the issuer might result in potential loss to investors.
Payment of coupon on the Bonds is subject to the terms of Information Memorandum, including Coupon Discretion,
Dividend Stopper Clause, Loss Absorption as contained in the Information Memorandum. The Bonds are subject to
loss absorption features as per the guidelines prescribed by RBI.
There may be no active market for the Bonds on the platform of the Stock Exchanges. As a result, the liquidity and
market prices of the Bonds may fail to develop and may accordingly be adversely affected:
There is no assurance that a trading market for the Bonds will exist and no assurance as to the liquidity of any trading
market. Although an application will be made to list the Bonds on the NSE and/or BSE, there can be no assurance
that an active market for the Bonds will develop, and if such a market were to develop, there is no obligation on the
issuer to maintain such a market. The liquidity and market prices of the Bonds can be expected to vary with changes
in market and economic conditions, financial condition and prospects and other factors that generally influence
market price of such instruments. Such fluctuations may significantly affect the liquidity and market price of the
Bonds, which may trade at a discount to the price at which one purchases these Bonds. Issuer is not required to and
will not create or maintain a Debenture Redemption Reserve (DRR) for the Bonds issued under this Disclosure
Document:
As per the Companies (Share Capital and Debentures) Rules, 2014, as amended, no Debenture Redemption Reserve
is required to be created by Banking Companies issuing debentures.
There is no assurance that the Tier I / Tier II bonds will not be downgraded:
The Rating agencies, which rate the Bonds, have a slightly different rating methodology for Tier I and Tier II bonds.
In the event of deterioration of the financial health of the Issuer or due to other reasons, the rating of the Bonds may
36be downgraded whilst the ratings of other bonds issued by the issuer may remain constant. In such a scenario, for
Tier I and Tier II Bond holders may incur losses on their investment.
Risks associated with investing in Derivatives
Derivative products are 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. The risks associated with the use of derivatives are different from or
possibly greater than the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. 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. Other risks include risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the inability of the derivative to correlate
perfectly with underlying assets, rates and indices, illiquidity risk whereby the Scheme may not be able to sell or
purchase derivative quickly enough at a fair price.
9. Risks associated with Securities Lending
For Equity Instruments:
As with other modes of extensions of credit, there are risks inherent to securities lending. During the period the
security is lent, the Scheme may not be able to sell such security and in turn cannot protect from the falling market
price of the said security. Under the current securities lending and borrowing mechanism, the Scheme can call back
the securities lent any time before the maturity date of securities lending contract. However, this will be again the
function of liquidity in the market and if there are no lenders in the specified security, the Scheme may not be able
to call back the security and in the process, the Scheme will be exposed to price volatility. Moreover, the fees paid
for calling back the security may be more than the lending fees earned by Scheme at the time of lending the said
security and this could result in loss to the Scheme. Also, during the period the security is lent, the Fund will not be
able to exercise the voting rights attached to the security as the security will not be registered in the name of the
Scheme in the records of the Depository/issuer.
For Debt Instruments:
As with other modes of extensions of credit, there are risks inherent to securities lending, including the risk of failure
of the other party, in this case the approved intermediary, to comply with the terms of the agreement entered into
between the lender of securities i.e. the Scheme and the approved intermediary. Such failure can result in the possible
loss of rights to the collateral put up by the borrower of the securities, the inability of the approved intermediary to
return the securities deposited by the lender and the possible loss of any corporate benefits accruing to the lender
from the securities deposited with the approved intermediary. The Scheme may not be able to sell such lent securities
and this can lead to temporary illiquidity.
10. Risks associated with Short Selling
The Scheme may enter into short selling transactions, subject to SEBI and RBI Regulations. Short positions carry
the risk of losing money and these losses may grow unlimited theoretically if the price of the stock increases without
any limit. This may result in major loss to the Scheme. At times, the participants may not be able to cover their short
positions, if the price increases substantially. If numbers of short sellers try to cover their position simultaneously,
it may lead to disorderly trading in the stock and thereby can briskly escalate the price even further making it difficult
or impossible to liquidate short position quickly at reasonable prices. In additions, short selling also carries the risk
of inability to borrow the security by the participants thereby requiring the participants to purchase the securities
sold short to cover the position even at unreasonable prices.
• Risk Factors with respect to Imperfect Hedging Using Interest Rate
37An Interest Rate Futures is an agreement to buy or sell a debt instrument at a specified future date at a price that is
fixed today. Interest Rate Futures are Exchange traded. These future contracts are cash settled.
• Perfect Hedging means hedging the underlying using IRF contract of same underlying.
• Imperfect hedging means the underlying being hedged and the IRF contract has correlation of closing prices
of more than 90%.
In case of imperfect hedging, the portfolio can be a mix of:
• Corporate Bonds and Government securities or
• Only Corporate debt securities or
• Only government securities with different maturities
• Risk associated with imperfect hedging includes:
Basis Risk: The risk arises when the price movements in derivative instrument used to hedge the underlying assets
does not match the price movements of the underlying assets being hedged. Such difference may potentially amplify
the gains or losses, thus adding risk to the position.
Price Risk: The risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the inability of derivatives to correlate perfectly with
underlying assets, rates, and indices.
Risk of mismatch between the instruments: The risk arises if there is a mismatch between the prices movements in
derivative instrument used to hedge, compared to the price movement of the underlying assets being hedged. For
example, when IRF which has government security as underlying is used, to hedge a portfolio that contains corporate
debt securities.
Correlation weakening and consequent risk of regulatory breach: SEBI (MF) Regulationsmandates minimum
correlation criterion of 0.9 (calculated on a 90-day basis) between the portfolio being hedged and the derivative
instrument used for hedging. In cases where the correlation falls below 0.9, a rebalancing period of 5 working days
has been permitted. Inability to satisfy this requirement to restore the correlation level to the stipulated level, within
the stipulated period, due to difficulties in rebalancing would lead to a lapse of the exemption in gross exposure
computation. The entire derivative exposure would then need to be included in gross exposure, which may result in
gross exposure in excess of 100% of net asset value.
Purchasing a security entails the risk of the security price going down. Short selling of securities (i.e. sale of
securities without owning them) entails the risk of the security price going up there by decreasing the profitability
of the short position. Short selling is subject to risks related to fluctuations in market price, and settlement/liquidity
risks. If required by the Regulations, short selling may entail margin money to be deposited with the clearing house
and daily mark to market of the prices and margins. This may impact fund pricing and may induce liquidity risks if
the fund is not able to provide adequate margins to the clearing house. Failure to meet margin requirements may
result in penalties being imposed by the exchanges and clearing house.

11. Risk Factors Associated with Investments in Foreign Securities
Std
Investments in International (overseas) securities including Exchange Traded Funds involves increased risk and
Obs.11
volatility, not typically associated with domestic investing,
Some of the risk associated are:
• Changes in currency exchange rates
• Foreign government regulations
• Differences in auditing and accounting standards
• Political and economic instability
• Liquidity and volatile prices
• Economic deterioration, and changes in bi-lateral relationships.
The investment by the Scheme in overseas securities and overseas ETFs is subject to compliance with the
38industry-wide limit as stipulated by RBI/SEBI from time to time. The Scheme may not be able to make investment
in overseas securities and overseas ETFs in case of breach of such industry-wide overseas limits. In such a
situation, the performance of the Scheme could be affected.
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 AMC 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).
Risk Mitigation/Control Strategies:
Consolid Equity:
ated
Std
Obs.09 • Liquidity Risk: 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.
• Concentration Risk: The scheme will endeavour to have a well-diversified equity portfolio comprising stocks
across various sectors of the economy. This would aid in managing concentration risk and sector-specific
risks. Generally, diversification across market cap segments also aids in managing volatility and ensuring
adequate liquidity at all times.
• Derivatives Risk: The fund will endeavour to maintain adequate controls to monitor the derivatives
transactions entered into.
Debt
• Interest Rate Risk: The Fund seeks to mitigate this risk by keeping the maturity of the scheme in line with the
interest rate expectations.
• Credit risk or default risk: Management analysis will be used for identifying company specific risks.
Management’s past track record will also be studied. In order to assess financial risk a detailed assessment of
the issuer’s financial statements will be undertaken.
• Reinvestment Risk: Reinvestment risks will be limited to the extent of coupons received on debt instruments,
which will be a very small portion of the portfolio value.
• The Scheme may invest in derivative for the purpose of hedging, portfolio balancing and other purposes as
may be permitted under the Regulations. Interest Rate Swaps will be done with approved counter parties
under pre-approved ISDA agreements. Interest rate swaps and other derivative instruments will be used as
per local (RBI and SEBI) regulatory guidelines.
• Liquidity or Marketability Risk: Liquidity risk may be high on select securities due to duration and/or issue
structure and/ or issuer-specific risk.
Liquidity Risk can be partly mitigated by diversification, staggering of maturities as well as internal risk controls
that lean towards purchase of liquid securities.

Short Future Futures Price * Lot Size * Number of Contracts
45Option bought Option Premium Paid * Lot Size * Number of Contracts.
Investment Restrictions pertaining to Debt Derivatives:
In terms of Circular No. MFD.BC.191/07.01.279/1999-2000 and MPD. BC.187/07.01.279/1999-2000 dated
November 1, 1999 and July 7, 1999 respectively issued by the RBI permitting participation by mutual funds
in interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements, the Fund will use derivative instruments for the purpose
of hedging and portfolio balancing. Further, the guidelines issued by the RBI from time to time for forward
rate agreements and interest rate swaps and other derivative products will be adhered to by the Fund.
Interest Rate Swaps (IRS)
An IRS is an agreement between two parties to exchange stated interest obligations for an agreed period in
respect of a notional principal amount. The most common form is a fixed to floating rate swap where one
party receives a fixed (pre-determined) rate of interest while the other receives a floating (variable) rate of
interest.
Forward Rate Agreement (FRA)
A FRA is basically a forward starting IRS. It is an agreement between two parties to pay or receive the
difference between an agreed fixed rate (the FRA rate) and the interest rate (reference rate) prevailing on a
stipulated future date, based on a notional principal amount for an agreed period. The only cash flow is the
difference between the FRA rate and the reference rate. As is the case with IRS, the notional amounts are not
exchanged in FRAs.
Example of a derivatives transaction - Basic Structure of a Swap Bank
A has a six-month V 10 crore liability, currently being deployed in call. Bank B has a V 10 crore, six-month
asset, being funded through call. Both banks are running an interest rate risk.
To hedge this interest rate risk, they can enter into a six-month MIBOR swap. Through this swap, A will
receive a fixed pre-agreed rate (say 7%) and pay “call” on the NSE MIBOR (“benchmark rate”). Bank A
paying at “call” on the benchmark rate will hedge the interest rate risk of lending in call. Bank B will pay 7%
and receive interest at the benchmark rate. Bank A receiving of “call” on the benchmark rate will hedge its
interest rate risk arising from its call borrowing.
The mechanism is as follows:-
• Assume the swap is for V 10 crore March 1, 2005 to September 1, 2005. A is a fixed rate receiver at 7%
and B is a floating rate receiver at the overnight compounded rate.
• On March 1, 2005, A and B will exchange only an agreement of having entered this swap. This
documentation would be based on an International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) template.
• On a daily basis, the benchmark rate fixed by NSE will be tracked by them. On September 1, 2005 they will
calculate the following:
• A is entitled to receive interest on R 10 crore at 7% for 184 days i.e. V 35.28 lakh, (this amount is known at
the time the swap was concluded) and will pay the compounded benchmark rate.
• B is entitled to receive daily compounded call rate for 184 days and pay 7% fixed.
• On September 1, 2005, if the total interest on the daily overnight compounded benchmark rate is higher than
V 35.28 lakhs, A will pay B the difference. If the daily compounded benchmark rate is lower, then B will pay
A the difference.
• Effectively, Bank A earns interest at the rate of 7% p.a. for six months without lending money for six months
fixed, while Bank B pays interest @ 7% p.a. for six months on V 10 crore, without borrowing for six months
46fixed.
As per the above-mentioned RBI circulars, mutual funds are permitted to do interest rate swaps / forward rate
agreements for hedging purposes only. Accordingly, the AMC would undertake the same for similar purposes
only. IRS and FRAs also have inherent credit and settlement risks. However, these risks are reduced as they
are limited to the interest streams and not the notional principal amounts.
Investments in derivatives will be in accordance with the SEBI (MF) Regulations/ guidelines and presently
derivatives shall be used for hedging and / or portfolio balancing purposes, as permitted under the Regulations.
The circumstances under which such transactions would be entered into would be when, using the IRS route,
it is possible to generate better returns / meet the objective of the Scheme at a lower cost. For example, if
buying a two-year MIBOR based instrument and receiving the two-year swap rate yields better return than
buying the two-year AAA corporate instrument, the Scheme would endeavour to do that. Alternatively, the
Scheme would also look to hedge existing fixed rate positions if the view on interest rates is that they are
likely to rise in the future.

online facilities / electronic modes, there may be a time lag of
few seconds or upto 1-7 banking days between the amount of
subscription being debited to investor's bank account and the
subsequent credit into the respective Scheme's bank account.
This lag may impact the applicability of NAV for transactions
where NAV is to be applied, based on actual realization of
funds by the Scheme. Under no circumstances will Groww
Asset Management Limited or its bankers or its service
56providers be liable for any lag / delay in realization of funds
and consequent pricing of units. The AMC has the right to
amend cut off timings subject to SEBI (MF) Regulations for

under clause 10.5 of SEBI Master Circular SEBI/HO/IMD/IMD-PoD-1/P/CIR/2024/90 dated June 27, 2024 to
deduct transaction charges for subscription of Rs. 10,000/- and above. The said transaction charges will be paid
to the distributors of the Mutual Fund products (based on the type of product). In accordance with the said
circular, AMC / Mutual Fund will deduct the transaction charges from the subscription amount and pay to the
distributors (based on the type of product and those who have opted to receive the transaction charges) as shown
in the table below. Thereafter, the balance of the subscription amount shall be invested.
(i) Transaction charges shall be deducted for Applications for purchase/ subscription received by distributor as
under:
Investor Type Transaction Charges
First Time Mutual Fund Investor Transaction charge of Rs.150/- for subscription of
Rs.10,000 and above will be deducted from the
subscription amount and paid to the
distributor/agent of the first time investor. The
balance of the subscription amount shall be
invested.

First Time Mutual Rs, 10,000 and above will be deducted from the
Fund Investor subscription amount and paid to the distributor/
agent of the investor. The balance of the
subscription amount shall be invested.
(ii) Transaction charges shall not be deducted for:

• Transactions other than purchases/ subscriptions relating to new inflows such as Switches, etc.
• Any purchase/subscription made directly with the Fund (i.e. not through any distributor).

61Applicability of Stamp Duty : Pursuant to Notification No. S. O. 1226 (E) and G.S.R 226(E) dated March
30, 2020 issued by Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance, Government of India, read with Part I of
Chapter IV of Notification dated February 21, 2019 issued by Legislative Department, Ministry of Law and
Justice, Government of India on the Finance Act, 2019, a stamp duty @ 0.005% of the transaction value
shall be levied on applicable mutual fund transactions. Accordingly, pursuant to levy of stamp duty, the
number of units allotted on purchase transactions to the unitholders would be reduced to that extent. The
stamp duty will be deducted from the net investment amount i.e. gross investment amount less any other
deduction like transaction charge. Units will be created only for the balance amount i.e. Net Investment
Amount as reduced by the stamp duty. The stamp duty will be computed at the rate of 0.005% on an inclusive
method basis.
For instance: If the transaction amount is Rs. 100100 /- and the transaction charge is Rs. 100, the stamp
duty will be calculated as follows: ((Transaction Amount – Transaction Charge) *0.005%) = Rs.5. If the
applicable Net Asset Value (NAV) is Rs. 10 per unit, then units allotted will be calculated as follows:
(Transaction Amount – Transaction Charge – Stamp Duty)/ Applicable NAV = 9,999.50 units.
