Kindly refer detailed definitions and applicable regulations/guidelines for each instruments in the Section II. C. WHAT ARE THE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES? Nippon India Nifty India Manufacturing ETF is a passively managed ETF which will employ an investment approach designed to track the performance of Nifty India Manufacturing TRI. The Scheme seeks to achieve this goal by investing in securities constituting the Nifty India Manufacturing Index in same proportion as in the Index. The AMC does not make any judgments about the investment merit of Nifty India Manufacturing Index nor will it attempt to apply any economic, financial or market analysis. This would be done by investing in the stocks comprising the Nifty India Manufacturing Index in approximately the same weightage that they represent in Nifty India Manufacturing Index. 11The Scheme will invest at least 95% of its total assets in the securities comprising the Underlying Index. The Scheme may also invest in money market instruments to meet the liquidity and expense requirements. In accordance with Clause 3.4 of SEBI Master Circular dated June 27, 2024, the underlying index shall comply with the portfolio concentration norms as prescribed. Derivatives strategy: The Scheme may invest in various derivative instruments which are permissible under the applicable regulations. Such investments shall be subject to the investment objective, asset allocation and strategy of the Scheme and the internal limits if any, as laid down from time to time. These include but are not limited to Index Options, Index Futures, Stock Options and Stock Futures and other instruments as may be permitted by SEBI. Exposure with respect to derivatives shall be in line with regulatory limits and the limits specified in the SID. 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. For detailed derivative strategies, please refer to SAI. Portfolio Turnover Policy Portfolio turnover is the term used by the Fund for measuring the amount of trading that occurs in a Scheme’s portfolio during a specified period of time. The Scheme is an open ended Scheme. It is therefore expected that there would be a number of Subscriptions and Redemptions on a daily basis. There may be frequent transaction to buy and sell the Securities resulting in increase in transaction cost. At the same time frequent transactions may increase the profits and which can offset the increase in cost. Consequently, it is difficult to estimate with any reasonable measure of accuracy, the likely turnover in the portfolio. However, the Fund Manager will endeavour to optimize the portfolio turnover to minimize risk and maximize gains while keeping in mind the cost associate with such transaction. Portfolio turnover is defined as the lower of sales or purchases divided by the average corpus during a specified period of time. Generally, turnover will be confined to rebalancing of portfolio on account of change in the composition and corporate actions of the underlying index. D. HOW WILL THE SCHEME BENCHMARK ITS PERFORMANCE? Nifty India Manufacturing TRI The scheme is an Exchange Traded Fund (ETF). The composition of the benchmark is such that it is most suited for comparing performance of the scheme. Total Return variant of the index (TRI) will be used for performance comparison E.

INTRODUCTION A. Definitions/interpretation For definition details please visit: https://mf.nipponindiaim.com/investor-service/downloads/scheme-information-document B. Risk Factors SCHEME SPECIFIC RISK FACTORS: (a) Risks associated with investing in Equities Equity and Equity related instruments on account of its volatile nature are subject to price fluctuations on daily basis. The volatility in the value of the equity and equity related instruments is due to various micro and macro economic factors affecting the securities markets. This may have adverse impact on individual securities /sector and consequently on the NAV of Scheme. The inability of the Scheme to make intended securities purchases due to settlement problems, could cause the Scheme to miss certain investment opportunities as in certain cases, settlement periods may be extended significantly by unforeseen circumstances. Similarly, the inability to sell securities held in the schemes portfolio may result, at times, in potential losses to the scheme, should there be a subsequently decline in the value of the securities held in the schemes portfolio. Trading volumes, settlement periods and transfer procedures may restrict the liquidity of the investments. This may impact the ability of the unit holders to redeem their units. In view of this, the Trustee has the right, in its sole discretion to limit redemptions (including suspending redemptions) under certain circumstances, in accordance with the SEBI Regulations. The Scheme may find itself invested in unlisted securities due to external events or corporate actions. This may increase the risk of the portfolio as these unlisted securities are inherently illiquid in nature and carry larger liquidity risk as compared to the listed securities or those that offer other exit options to the investors. Investments in equity and equity related securities involve high degree of risks and investors should not invest in the Scheme unless they can afford to take the risk of losing their investment. b) Risk specific to investing in securities forming part of Nifty India Manufacturing Index Nippon India Nifty India Manufacturing ETF is passively a managed Scheme i.e. the amount collected under the scheme is invested in securities of companies comprising the underlying index in the same weightages as they have in the underlying index. The composition of the underlying index is subject to changes that may be affected periodically by the Index Service Provider. Performance of the underlying index will have a direct bearing on the performance of the scheme. The extent of the Tracking error may have an impact on the performance of the scheme. Investments in equity and equity related securities involve high degree of risks and investors should not invest in the Scheme unless they can afford to take the risk of losing their investment. Corporate Action and Proxy Voting From time to time, the issuer of a Security held in the Scheme may initiate a corporate action relating to that Security. Corporate actions relating to equity Securities may include, among others, an offer to purchase new shares, or to tender existing shares, of that Security at a certain price. Corporate actions relating to debt Securities may include, among others, an offer for early redemption of the debt Security, or an offer to convert the debt Security into stock. Certain corporate actions are voluntary, meaning that the Scheme may only participate in the corporate action it elects to do so in a timely fashion. Participation in certain corporate actions may enhance the value of the Scheme. In cases where the Fund or the Fund Manager receives sufficient advance notice of a voluntary corporate action, the Fund Managers will exercise their discretion, in good faith, to determine whether the Scheme will participate in that corporate action. If the Fund Managers do not receive sufficient advance notice of a voluntary corporate action, the Fund Managers acting on behalf of the Scheme may not be able to timely elect to participate in that corporate action. Participation or lack of participation in a voluntary corporate action may result in a negative impact on the value of the Scheme. The Scheme may find itself invested in unlisted securities due to external events or corporate actions. This may increase the risk of the portfolio as these unlisted securities are inherently illiquid in nature and carry larger liquidity risk as compared to the listed securities or those that offer other exit options to the investors. The AMC may at its discretion exercise or procure the exercise of voting or other rights which may be exercisable in relation to Securities held by the Scheme, or at its discretion, elect not to exercise or procure the exercise of such voting or other rights. In relation to the exercise of such rights the AMC has established guidelines for the exercise of voting or other rights wherein it is stated that for passive funds / ETFs we will generally be abstaining on resolutions (c) Risks relating to Investing in Indian Markets Investments in India may be affected by political, social, and economic developments affecting India, which may include changes in exchange rates and controls, interest rates, government policies, diplomatic conditions, hostile relations with neighbouring countries, taxation policies including the possibility of expropriation or confiscatory taxation, imposition of withholding taxes on IDCW or interest payments, limitation on removal of funds or assets of the Scheme and ethnic, religious and racial disaffections or conflict. The relative small size and inexperience of the Securities markets in India and the limited volume of trading in Securities may make the Scheme’s investments illiquid and more volatile than investments in more established markets. In addition, the 19settlement systems may be less developed than in more established markets, which could impede the Scheme’s ability to effect portfolio transactions and may result in delayed settlement and the Scheme’s investments being settled through a more limited range of counter parties with an accompanying enhanced credit risk. To the extent the Scheme is subject to margining or pre-payment systems, whereby margin or the entire settlement proceeds for a transaction is required to be posted prior to the settlement date, this can potentially give rise to credit and operational risks as well as potentially borrowing costs for the Scheme. (d) Risks associated with investing in Fixed Income Securities Investment in Fixed Income Securities is subject to price, credit, and interest rate risk. The NAV of the Scheme may be affected, inter alia, by changes in the market conditions, interest rates, trading volumes, settlement periods and transfer procedures. Fixed Income Securities are subject to the risk of an issuer’s inability to meet interest and principal payments on its debt obligations (credit risk). Fixed Income Securities may also be subject to price volatility due to factors such as changes in interest rates, general level of market liquidity and market perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer, among others (market risk). The Investment Manager will endeavor to manage credit risk through in-house credit analysis. The Scheme may also use various hedging products from time to time, as are available and permitted by SEBI, to attempt to reduce the impact of undue market volatility on the Scheme’s portfolio. The NAV of the Scheme’s Units, to the extent that the Scheme is invested in fixed income securities, will be affected by changes in the general level of interest rates. When interest rates decline, the value of a portfolio of fixed income securities can be expected to rise. Conversely, when interest rates rise, the value of a portfolio of fixed income securities can be expected to decline Investing in Fixed Income securities are subject to the risk of an Issuer’s inability to meet principal and interest payments obligation (credit risk) and may also be subject to price volatility due to such factors as interest rate sensitivity, market perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer and general market liquidity (market risk). The timing of transactions in debt obligations, which will often depend on the timing of the Purchases and Redemptions in the Scheme, may result in capital appreciation or depreciation because the value of debt obligations generally varies inversely with the prevailing interest rates. Interest Rate Risk As with all fixed income securities, changes in interest rates will affect the Scheme’s Net Asset Value as the prices of securities generally increase as interest rates decline and generally decrease as interest rates rise. Prices of longer-term securities generally fluctuate more in response to interest rate changes than do shorter-term securities. Interest rate movements in the Indian markets can be volatile leading to the possibility of large price movements up or down in money market securities and thereby to possibly large movements in the NAV. Liquidity or Marketability Risk This refers to the ease at which a security can be sold at or near its true value. The primary measure of liquidity risk is the spread between the bid price and the offer price quoted by a dealer. Liquidity risk is characteristic of the Indian fixed income market. Credit Risk Credit risk or default risk refers to the risk which may arise due to default on the part of the issuer of the money market security (i.e. will be unable to make timely principal and interest payments on the security). While this risk is limited in money market instruments, because of stringent restrictions on issuers, it is not eliminated completely. Hence, they are sold at a yield spread above those offered on Treasury securities, which are sovereign obligations and generally considered to be free of credit risk. Normally, the value of a fixed income security will fluctuate depending upon the actual changes in the perceived level of credit risk as well as the actual event of default. Reinvestment Risk This risk refers to the interest rate levels at which cash flows received from the securities in the Scheme or from maturities in the Scheme are reinvested. The additional income from reinvestment is the “interest on interest” component. The risk refers to the fall in the rate for reinvestment of interim cashflows. Risks associated with various types of securities CREDIT RISK LIQUIDITY RISK PRICE RISK Listed Depends on credit quality Relatively Low Depends on duration of instrument Unlisted Depends on credit quality Relatively High Depends on duration of instrument Secured Relatively low Relatively Low Depends on duration of instrument Unsecured Relatively high Relatively High Depends on duration of instrument Rated Relatively low and depends on the rating Relatively Low Depends on duration of instrument Unrated Relatively high Relatively High Depends on duration of instrument 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 e.g. corporate bonds, carry a higher level of risk than Government securities. Further even among corporate bonds, bonds which are AAA rated are comparatively less risky than bonds which are AA rated 20(e) Risk associated with investing in Derivatives I. Valuation Risk : The risk in valuing the Debt & Equity derivative products due to inadequate trading data with good volumes. Derivatives with longer duration would have higher risk viz a viz the shorter duration derivatives. II. Mark to Market Risk : The day-to-day potential for an investor to experience losses from fluctuations in underlying stock prices and derivatives prices. III. Systematic Risk : The risk inherent in the capital market due to macro economic factors like Inflation, GDP, Global events. IV. Liquidity Risk : The risk stemming from the lack of availability of derivatives products across different maturities and with different risk appetite. V. Implied Volatility : The estimated volatility of an underlying security’s price and derivatives price. VI. Interest Rate Risk : The risk stemming from the movement of Interest rates in adverse direction. As with all the debt securities, changes in the interest rates will affect the valuation of the portfolios. VII. Counterparty Risk (Default Risk) : Default risk is the risk that losses will be incurred due to the default by the counterparty for over the counter derivatives. VIII. System Risk : The risk arising due to failure of operational processes followed by the exchanges and OTC participants for the derivatives trading. (f) Risk attached with the use of derivatives 1. 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 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 a loss may be sustained by the portfolio as a result of the failure of another party (usually referred to as the “counterparty”) to comply with the terms of the derivatives contract. Other risks 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. 2. 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. 3. 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. (g) Risks of Total Return Dividends are assumed to be reinvested into the Nifty India Manufacturing Index after the ex-dividend date of the constituents. However in practice, the dividends is received with a lag. This can lead to some tracking error. (h) Passive Investments The Scheme is not actively managed. The underlying Scheme may be affected by a general decline in the Indian markets relating to its Underlying Index. The underlying Scheme invests in the securities included in its Underlying Index regardless of their investment merit. The AMC does not attempt to individually select stocks or to take defensive positions in declining markets. (i) Risk associated with Securities Lending Securities Lending is a lending of securities through an approved intermediary to a borrower under an agreement for a specified period with the condition that the borrower will return equivalent securities of the same type or class at the end of the specified period along with the corporate benefits accruing on the securities borrowed. In case the Scheme undertakes stock lending under the Regulations, it may, at times be exposed to counter party risk and other risks associated with the securities lending. Unitholders of the Scheme should note that 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 risks in lending portfolio securities, as with other extensions of credit, consist of the failure of another party, in this case the approved intermediary, to comply with the terms of agreement entered into between the lender of securities i.e. the Scheme and the approved intermediary. Such failure to comply can result in the possible loss of rights in 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 Mutual Fund may not be able to sell such lent securities and this can lead to temporary illiquidity. (j) Risks associated with investing in Tri Party Repo through CCIL (TREPS): The mutual fund is a member of securities segment and Tri-party Repo trade settlement of the Clearing Corporation of India (CCIL). All transactions of the mutual fund in government securities and in Tri-party Repo trades are settled centrally through the infrastructure and settlement systems provided by CCIL; thus, reducing the settlement and counterparty risks considerably for transactions in the said segments. CCIL maintains prefunded resources in all the clearing segments to cover potential losses arising from the default member. In the event of a clearing member failing to honour his settlement obligations, the default Fund is utilized to complete the settlement. The sequence in which the above resources are used is known as the “Default Waterfall”. 21As per the waterfall mechanism, after the defaulter’s margins and the defaulter’s contribution to the default fund have been appropriated, CCIL’s contribution is used to meet the losses. Post utilization of CCIL’s contribution if there is a residual loss, it is appropriated from the default fund contributions of the non-defaulting members. Thus, the scheme is subject to risk of the initial margin and default fund contribution being invoked in the event of failure of any settlement obligations. In addition, the fund contribution is allowed to be used to meet the residual loss in case of default by the other clearing member (the defaulting member). However, it may be noted that a member shall have the right to submit resignation from the membership of the Security segment if it has taken a loss through replenishment of its contribution to the default fund for the segments and a loss threshold as notified have been reached. The maximum contribution of a member towards replenishment of its contribution to the default fund in the 7 days (30 days in case of securities segment) period immediately after the afore-mentioned loss threshold having been reached shall not exceed 5 times of its contribution to the Default Fund based on the last re-computation of the Default Fund or specified amount, whichever is lower. Further, it may be noted that, CCIL periodically prescribes a list of securities eligible for contributions as collateral by members. Presently, all Central Government securities and Treasury bills are accepted as collateral by CCIL. The risk factors may undergo change in case the CCIL notifies securities other than Government of India securities as eligible for contribution as collateral (k) Other Scheme Specific Risk factors a) The liquidity of the Scheme’s investments may be inherently restricted by trading volumes, settlement periods and transfer procedures. In the event of an inordinately large number of redemption requests, or of a re-structuring of the Scheme’s investment portfolio, these periods may become significant. b) Although, the objective of the Fund is to generate optimal returns, the objective may or may not be achieved. The investors may note that if the AMC/Investment Manager is not able to make right decision regarding the timing of increasing exposure in money market securities in times of falling equity market, it may result in negative returns. Given the nature of scheme, the portfolio turnover ratio may be on the higher side commensurate with the investment decisions and Asset Allocation of the Scheme. At times, such churning of portfolio may lead to losses due to subsequent negative or unfavorable market movements. c) Credit And Rating Downgrade Risks may affect the value of Money Market instruments. d) The NAV of the scheme to the extent invested in Money market securities are likely to be affected by changes in the prevailing rates of interest and are likely to affect the value of the Scheme’s holdings and thus the value of the Scheme’s Units. e) The AMC may, considering the overall level of risk of the portfolio, invest in lower rated/ unrated securities offering higher yields. This may increase the risk of the portfolio. f) Securities which are not quoted on the stock exchanges are inherently illiquid in nature and carry a larger amount of liquidity risk, in comparison to securities that are listed on the exchanges or offer other exit options to the investor, including a put option. The Scheme may find itself invested in unlisted securities due to external events or corporate actions. This may increase the risk of the portfolio. g) While securities that are listed on the stock exchange carry lower liquidity risk, the ability to sell these investments is limited by the overall trading volume on the stock exchanges. Money market securities, while fairly liquid, lack a well-developed secondary market, which may restrict the selling ability of the Scheme and may lead to the Scheme incurring losses till the security is finally sold. h) Investment decisions made by the AMC may not always be profitable, even though it is intended to generate capital appreciation and maximize the returns by actively investing in equity and equity related securities. i) The tax benefits available under the scheme are as available under the present taxation laws and are available only to certain specified categories of investors and that is subject to fulfillment of the relevant conditions. The information given is included for general purposes only and is based on advise that the AMC has received regarding the law and the practice that is currently in force in India and the investors and the Unitholders should be aware that the relevant fiscal rules and their interpretation may change. As is the case with any investment, there can be no guarantee that the tax position or the proposed tax position prevailing at the time of investment in the Scheme will endure indefinitely. In view of the individual nature of tax consequences, each Investor/Unitholder is advised to consult his/her own professional tax advisor. The Mutual Fund is not assuring or guaranteeing that it will be able to make regular periodical distributions/distribute bonus units to its Unit holders though it has every intention to manage the portfolio so as to make periodical income/bonus distributions to Unit holders. Periodical distributions will be dependent on the returns achieved by the Asset Management Company by tracking Nifty India Manufacturing Index. Periodical distributions may therefore vary from period to period, based on investment results of the portfolio. Past performance of the Sponsor/ the AMC/ the Mutual Fund is not indicative of the future performance of the Scheme. Nippon India Nifty India Manufacturing ETF is the name of the Scheme and does not in any manner indicate either the quality of the Scheme; its future prospects or returns. All IDCW distributions are subject to the availability of distributable surplus in the Scheme. When an investor switches from this scheme to another scheme on a future date, the scheme specific risk factors applicable to such scheme into which he switches, will apply. 22(l) Market Trading Risks a) Absence of Prior Active Market: Although the units of ETFs are listed on the Stock Exchange for trading, there can be no assurance that an active secondary market will develop or be maintained. b) Lack of Market Liquidity: Trading in units of ETFs on the Stock Exchange on which it is listed may be halted because of market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the concerned Stock Exchange or Market Regulator, trading in the ETF Units is inadvisable. In addition, trading in the units of ETFs is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to ‘circuit breaker’ rules. There can be no assurance that the requirements of the concerned Stock Exchange necessary to maintain the listing of the units of ETFs will continue to be met or will remain unchanged. c) Units of Exchange Traded Funds May Trade at Prices Other than NAV: Units of Exchange Traded Funds may trade above or below their NAV. The NAV of Units of Exchange Traded Funds may fluctuate with changes in the market value of a Scheme’s holdings. The trading prices of units of ETF will fluctuate in accordance with changes in their NAVs as well as market supply and demand. However, given that ETFs can be created / redeemed in Creation Units, directly with the fund, large discounts or premiums to the NAVs will not sustain due to arbitrage possibility available. d) Regulatory Risk: Any changes in trading regulations by the Exchange or SEBI may affect the ability of market maker to arbitrage resulting into wider premium/ discount to NAV. Although Nippon India Nifty India Manufacturing ETF are proposed to be listed on an Exchange, the AMC and the Trustees will not be liable for delay in listing of Units of the Scheme on Exchange / or due to connectivity problems with the depositories due to the occurrence of any event beyond their control. e) Political Risks: Whereas the Indian market was formerly restrictive, a process of deregulation has been taking place over recent years. This process has involved removal of trade barriers and protectionist measures, which could adversely affect the value of investments. It is possible that the future changes in the Indian political situation, including political, social or economic instability, diplomatic developments and changes in laws and regulations could have an effect on the value of investments. Expropriation, confiscatory taxation or other relevant developments could affect the value of investments. f) Competition Risks: An investment in Nippon India Nifty India Manufacturing ETF may be adversely affected by competition from other methods of investing in the Index. g) Right to Limit Redemptions: The Trustee, in the general interest of the unit holders of the Scheme offered under this Offer Document and keeping in view of the unforeseen circumstances/unusual market conditions, may limit the total number of Units which can be redeemed on any Business Day depending on the total “Saleable Underlying Stock” available with the fund. (m) Redemption Risk – Investors may note that even though the Scheme is an open-ended Scheme, the Scheme would ordinarily repurchase Units in Creation Unit Size. Investors can directly approach the AMC for redemption of units of ETFs, for transaction of up to INR 25 Cr. without any exit load, in case of the following scenarios: i. Traded price (closing price) of the ETF units is at discount of more than 1% to the day end NAV for 7 continuous trading days, or ii. No quotes for such ETFs are available on stock exchange(s) for 3 consecutive trading days, or iii. Total bid size on the exchange is less than half of creation units size daily, averaged over a period of 7 consecutive trading days. In such a scenario valid applications received upto 3 p.m., Nippon India MF shall process the Redemption request basis the closing NAV of the day of receipt of application. Such instances shall be tracked by Nippon India AMC on an ongoing basis and incase if any of the above mentioned scenario arises the same shall be disclosed on the website of Nippon India Mutual Fund i.e. mf.nipponindiaim. com / etf.nipponindiaim.com (n) Asset Class Risk : The returns from the types of securities in which a Scheme invests may under perform returns from the various general securities markets or different asset classes. Different types of securities tend to go through cycles of out-performance and under performance in comparison of the general securities markets. (o) Passive Investments: As Nippon India Nifty India Manufacturing ETF is not actively managed, the underlying investments may be affected by a general decline in the Indian markets relating to its Underlying Index. The scheme invests in the securities included in its underlying index regardless of their investment merit. The AMC does not attempt to take defensive positions in declining markets. Further, the fund manager does not make any judgment about the investment merit nor shall attempt to apply any economic, financial or market analysis. (p) Tracking Error and Tracking Difference Risk Tracking error is defined as the annualized standard deviation of the difference in the daily returns between the NAV of the Scheme and the Underlying Index. Tracking Difference is defined as the annualized difference of returns between the NAV of the Scheme and the underlying index. Theoretically, the corpus of the Scheme has to be fully invested in the securities comprising the Underlying Index in the same proportion of weights as the securities have in the Underlying Index. However, deviations from the stated index replication may occur due to reason that the Scheme has to incur expenses, corporate actions pertaining to the Index including changes to the constituents, regulatory policies, ability of the Fund Manager to closely replicate the Underlying Index, 23delay in purchase or non-availability of underlying securities forming part of the index etc. Tracking Error/ Tracking Difference may arise including but not limited to the following reasons: 1. Delay in purchase or non-availability of underlying securities forming part of the index. 2. Delay in liquidation of securities which have been removed by the Index. 3. Fees and expenses of the Scheme. 4. Cash balance held by the Scheme due to interest received during subscriptions, redemption, etc. 5. Halt in trading on the stock exchange due to circuit filter rules. 6. Corporate actions. 7. The Scheme has to invest in the securities in whole numbers and has to round off the quantity of securities. 8. Dividend payout. 9. Changes in the constituents of the underlying Index. Whenever there are any changes, the Scheme has to reallocate its investment as per the revised Index but market conditions may not offer an opportunity to rebalance its portfolio to match the Index and such delay may affect the NAV of the Scheme. The AMC would monitor the tracking error of the Scheme on an ongoing basis and would seek to minimize tracking error. Under normal market circumstances, tracking error based on past one year rolling data shall not exceed 2%. However, in case of unavoidable circumstances in the nature of force majeure, which are beyond the control of the AMCs, the tracking error may exceed 2% and the same shall be brought to the notice of Trustees with corrective actions taken by the AMC, if any. (q) Risks associated with segregated portfolio Liquidity risk 1. Investor holding units of segregated portfolio may not able to liquidate their holding till the time recovery of money from the issuer. 2. 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. Credit risk 3. Security comprises of segregated portfolio may not realise any value. (Complete section related to segregation of portfolio will be mentioned in the SAI) (r) Risk factor associated with investment in Units of Mutual Funds: Mutual funds being vehicles of securities investments are subject to market and other risks and there can be no guarantee against loss resulting from investing in the Scheme. The various factors which impact the value of the Schemes’ investments include, but are not limited to, fluctuations in the bond markets, fluctuations in interest rates, prevailing political and economic environment, changes in government policy, factors specific to the issuer of the securities, tax laws, liquidity of the underlying instruments, settlement periods, trading volumes, suspension of subscription/redemptions of the scheme, change in fundamental attribute etc. The Scheme may invest in schemes of Mutual Funds. Hence, scheme specific risk factors of each such mutual fund schemes will be applicable to the Scheme portfolio. C. Risk mitigation strategies As per data from Stock exchanges more than half of market liquidity remains in the index. Therefore, the scheme does not envisage liquidity issues. The scheme may take exposure to equity derivatives of the index itself or its constituent stocks, when equity shares are unavailable, insufficient or for rebalancing in case of corporate actions for a temporary period. Type of Risks Measures/ Strategies to control risks Equity Markets/ Equity Oriented • Market Risk and Volatility: Market risk is a risk which is inherent to an equity scheme. Being a Instruments passively managed scheme, it will invest in the securities included in its Underlying Index. • Concentration / Sector Risk: Being a passively managed Fund a passive investment carries lesser risk as compared to active fund management. The portfolio follows the index and therefore the level of stock concentration in the portfolio and its volatility would be the same as that of the index, subject to tracking error. Thus, there is no additional element of volatility or stock concentration on account of fund manager decisions. The Risk Mitigation strategy revolves around minimizing the Tracking error to the least possible through regular rebalancing of the portfolio, taking into account the change in weights of stocks in the Underlying Index as well as the incremental collections into / redemptions from the Scheme. • Liquidity Risks: As such the liquidity of stocks that the scheme invests into could be relatively low. The fund will endeavor to maintain a proper asset liability match to ensure redemption payments are made on time and not affected by illiquidity of the underlying stocks. 24Debt and Money Market • Credit Risk: Management analysis will be used for identifying company specific risks. instruments 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. • Price-Risk or Interest-Rate Risk: The Scheme may primarily invest the debt portion of the portfolio in short term debt & money market instruments, units of Liquid and Overnight schemes thereby mitigating the price volatility due to interest rate changes generally associated with long- term securities. • Risk of Rating Migration: The Scheme may primarily invest the debt portion of the portfolio in short-term debt & money market instruments, units of Liquid and Overnight schemes thereby mitigating the risk of rating migration generally associated with long-term securities. • Basis Risk: The debt allocation of scheme is primarily as a cash management strategy and such strategy returns are expected to reflect the very short term interest rate hence investment is done in short term debt and money market instruments. • Spread Risk: The Scheme may primarily invest the debt portion of the portfolio in short-term debt & money market instruments, units of Liquid and Overnight schemes thereby mitigating the risk of spread expansion which is generally associated with long-term securities • Reinvestment Risk: The debt allocation of scheme is primarily as a cash management strategy and such strategy returns are expected to reflect the very short term interest rate hence investment is done in short term debt and money market instruments. Reinvestment risks will be limited to the extent of debt instruments, which will be a very small portion of the overall portfolio value. • Liquidity Risk: The Scheme may, however, endeavor to minimize liquidity risk by primarily investing the debt portion of the portfolio in relatively liquid short-term debt & money market instruments, units of Liquid and Overnight schemes. Derivatives The Scheme may invest in derivative for the purpose of hedging, portfolio balancing and other purposes as may be permitted under the Regulations. Equity Derivatives will be used in the form of Index Options, Index Futures, Stock Options and Stock Futures and other instruments as may be permitted by SEBI. Derivatives can be either exchange traded or can be over the counter (OTC). Exchange traded derivatives are listed and traded on stock exchanges whereas OTC derivative transactions are generally structured between two counterparties. Exposure with respect to derivatives shall be in line with regulatory limits and the limits specified in the SID. Repo Transactions This risk is largely mitigated, as the choice of counterparties is largely restricted and their credit rating is taken into account before entering into such transactions. Also, operational risks are lower as such trades are settled on a DVP basis. In the event the counterparty is unable to pay back the money to the scheme as contracted on maturity, the scheme may dispose of the assets (as they have sufficient margin) and the net proceeds may be refunded to the counterparty Government securities and As a member of securities segment and Triparty repo segment, maintenance of Triparty repo on Government sufficient margin is a mandatory requirement. CCIL monitors these on a real time basis and securities or treasury bills: requests the participants to provide sufficient margin to enable the trades etc. Also, there are stringent conditions / requirements before registering any participants by CCIL in these segments. Since settlement is guaranteed the loss on this account could be minimal though there could be an opportunity loss. Units of mutual Mutual Fund portfolios are generally well diversified and typically endeavor to provide liquidly on a T+1/T+2 basis and aim to mitigate any risks arising out of underlying investments. Commodity fund schemes ETF’s are quite liquid as they can either be created /redeemed with the fund house or traded on the exchange. Tracking errors Over a short period, the Scheme may carry the risk of variance between portfolio composition and Benchmark. The objective of the Scheme is to closely track the performance of the Underlying Index over the same period, subject to tracking error. The Scheme would endeavor to maintain a low tracking error by actively aligning the portfolio in line with the Index. While these measures are expected to mitigate the above risks to a large extent, there can be no assurance that these risks would be completely eliminated. 25The measures mentioned above is based on current market conditions and may change from time to time based on changes in such conditions, regulatory changes and other relevant factors. Accordingly, our investment strategy, risk mitigation measures and other information contained herein may change.in response to the same. II. Information about the scheme: A. Where will the scheme invest Sr. Instruments in which the scheme will invest No. 1 Securities of companies constituting Nifty India Manufacturing Index 2 Equity Derivatives of the index itself or its constituent stocks 3 Cash & Cash Equivalents including Government Securities, T-Bills and Repo on Government Securities 4 Money Market Instruments 5 Reverse repo and / or Tri-Party Repo on Government securities or Treasury bills Schemes of Nippon India Mutual Fund and/ or any other mutual fund which invest in the money market securities or Liquid 6 Schemes 7 Unrated debt and money market instruments The net assets of the Scheme will be invested predominantly in stocks constituting the Nifty India Manufacturing Index and / or its exchange traded derivatives. A small portion of the net assets will be invested in money market instruments permitted by SEBI / RBI. Subject to the Regulations, the amount collected under this scheme can be invested in any (but not exclusively) of the following securities / instruments: (1) Equity and Equity related Securities of companies constituting Nifty India Manufacturing Index. (2) Cash & cash equivalents and Money Market instruments, Reverse repo and / or Tri-Party Repo on Government securities or Treasury bills and/or Schemes of Nippon India Mutual Fund and/ or any other mutual fund which invest in the money market securities or Liquid Schemes. Cash Equivalents include Government Securities, T-Bills and Repo on Government Securities having residual maturity of less than 91 days. (3) The Scheme may take derivatives positions like stock/Index futures, Stock/Index options subject to the guidelines issued by SEBI from time to time and in circumstances mentioned under the section “HOW WILL THE SCHEME ALLOCATE ITS ASSETS”. (4) Any other instruments / securities, which in the opinion of the fund manager would suit the investment objective of the scheme subject to compliance with extant Regulations, after seeking necessary approval, whenever required. Securities Lending by the Fund: The scheme shall engage in securities lending for equity investments, in line with the SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996, Securities Lending Scheme, 1997and Clause 12.11 of SEBI Master Circular dated June 27, 2024 notifying framework 13 for lending of securities and such other applicable guidelines as may be amended from time to time. The scheme may engage in Securities Lending not exceeding 15% of the net assets of the scheme and shall not lend more than 5% of its Net Assets to a single counterparty or such other limits as may be permitted by SEBI from time to time. In accordance with the Regulations and applicable guidelines, the Fund may engage in stock lending activities. The Securities will be lent by the Approved Intermediary against collateral received from borrower, for a fixed period of time, on expiry of which the securities lent will be returned by the borrower. It may be noted that this activity would have the inherent probability of collateral value drastically falling in times of strong downward market trends, resulting in inadequate value of collateral until such time as that diminution in value is replenished by additional security. It is also possible that the borrowing party and/or the approved intermediary may suddenly suffer severe business setback and become unable to honor its commitments. This along with a simultaneous fall in value of collateral would render potential loss to the Scheme. Besides, there can also be temporary illiquidity of the securities that are lent out and the scheme may not be able to sell such lent out securities.

Index methodology About the Index ‘Nifty India Manufacturing’ Index aims to track the performance of the companies selected from the combined universe of Nifty 100, Nifty Midcap 150 and Nifty Smallcap 50 index based on 6 month average free-float market capitalisation within the eligible basic industries that broadly represent manufacturing sector. A stock’s weight is based on its free-float market capitalization. The salient features of this index are: • The index has a base date of April 01, 2005, with a base value of 1000 • Stocks forming part of the combined universe of Nifty 100, Nifty Midcap 150 and Nifty Smallcap 50 at the time of review are eligible for inclusion in the index • Stocks forming part of the eligible ‘basic industry’ based on AMFI classification shall be eligible to be included from the universe at the time of review. (Refer Annexure 1 for list of such eligible basic industries) • Provides ~75% coverage of Free Float Market Cap of eligible stocks within each eligible basic industry of the combined universe • The weight of each stock in the index is based on its free float market capitalization with a maximum stock cap of 5% and minimum weight to certain manufacturing sectors shall be 20% each • Index is reconstituted and rebalanced semi-annually 30Eligibility Criteria: To form part of the Nifty India Manufacturing index, stocks should satisfy the following eligibility criteria. Stock Selection Universe: • Stocks forming part / going to be a part of the combined universe of Nifty 100, Nifty Midcap 150 and Nifty Smallcap 50 index at the time of review • Only ordinary equity shares will be considered Stock Selection criteria: Selection of the stocks shall be done in following steps: Step 1: Select all the eligible stocks from Nifty 100 Step 2: If the cumulative coverage based on 6 month Average FFMCAP of the stocks selected in the step 1 is less than 75% within their basic industries across the combined universe, then the stocks from Nifty Midcap 150 and Nifty Smallcap 50 are sorted in the descending order of the 6 month Average Free-float mcap* within each basic industry Step 3: The stocks are then selected from the sorted universe until the 75% coverage by cumulative weight (including the stocks selected in step 1) of 6 month Average FFMCAP of the eligible stocks within the basic industry is reached. Weights and capping: • Weights of each stock in the index will be calculated based on its free-float market capitalization • The following manufacturing sectors shall have a minimum weight^ of 20% each 1. Automobile and Auto Components 2. Capital Goods • The maximum weight of each stock within the index is capped at 5% • The weight of the stocks shall be rebalanced on a semi-annual basis along with the Nifty Broad-based indices ^In case the number of stocks within the Automobile and Auto Components or Capital Goods sector falls below 4, the constraint of minimum sector weight will be relaxed for that sector Reconstitution: • Index reconstitution and rebalancing will be done along with the Nifty Broad-based indices on a semi-annual basis in March and September and made effective on the last trading day of March and September using the 6 month Average free-float capitalization ended January and July respectively • Stocks forming part/going to be part of the eligible basic industries within the combined universe of Nifty 100, Nifty Midcap 150 and Nifty Smallcap 50 at the time of review are eligible to be the part of the index • The following guidelines are used in order to achieve the target sector coverage of 75% o Step 1: Select all the eligible stocks from Nifty 100 o Step 2: If the cumulative coverage based on 6 month Average FFMCAP of the stocks selected in the step 1 is less than 75% within their basic industries within the combined universe, the stocks from Nifty Midcap 150 and Nifty Smallcap 50 are sorted in the descending order of the 6 month Average Free-float mcap within their basic industries o Based on the above sorting the cumulative % free-float basic industry coverage is calculated o In each basic industry where the cumulative % free-float coverage after the selection of stocks within Nifty 100 is less than 75%, the companies are selected until the cumulative basic industry coverage of the selected companies crosses 75% following the below guidelines:  The company that increases the cumulative basic industry coverage above 75% is termed as ‘marginal company’  If the marginal company is an existing index constituent, it is retained in the index.  If the marginal company is a new constituent, it will be included in the index:  Only if the cumulative weight of companies before the addition of marginal company is less than 70%  If the cumulative weight exceeds 75% after the addition of the marginal stock, such that the excess weight above 75% is lower than the earlier deficit below 75% (i.e. 75% minus the cumulative weight before including the marginal stock) For instance, if the cumulative weight of the stocks before the addition of marginal stock is 72.5% and on the addition of the marginal stock, the cumulative weight becomes 77%, the stock will be included in the index (as the excess weight of 2% is lower than the deficit of 2.5%). But if on the addition of marginal stock the weight becomes 78%, the new constituent will not be included in the index (as the excess weight of 3% is higher than the deficit of 2.5%)  If there is only 1 eligible stock within the basic industry, it is included in the index • If adding a non-marginal existing index constituent(s) ranked immediately after the marginal stock does not increase the basic industry coverage beyond 80%, such existing stock(s) would be retained in the index 31• Apart from the scheduled semi-annual review, additional ad-hoc reconstitution and rebalancing of the index shall be initiated in case any of the index constituents undergoes suspension or delisting or scheme of arrangement • Further, on a quarterly basis, indices will be screened for compliance with the portfolio concentration norms for ETFs/ Index Funds announced by SEBI on January 10, 2019. In case of non-compliance, suitable corrective measures will be taken to ensure compliance with the norms. Constituent Weightings Index constituents are weighted based on their float-adjusted market capitalization.
