*****************************************************************
11COMPUTATION OF NAV (this will be put in weblink. Part of point IX above)
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 non-daily
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 Scheme's + Current Assets - Current Liabilities and Provisions
investments including Accrued including accrued expenses
Income
No. of Units outstanding under Scheme on the Valuation date
The NAV of the Scheme will be calculated upto four decimal places and will be declared on each business
day.
Illustration: Con. Std. Obs. 42
Computation of NAV - 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:
Therefore, the NAV of the scheme is Rs. 22.000
Computation of Redemption Price - If the applicable NAV is Rs. 10, exit load is 2% then redemption price
12will be: Rs. 10* (1-0.02) = Rs. 9.80
The Redemption Price will not be lower than 97% of the NAV. Pursuant to clause 10.4.1.a of the SEBI
Master circular for Mutual Funds dated June 27, 2024, no entry load will be charged by the Scheme to the
investors.
Con. Std. Obs. 47
For details on policies related to computation of NAV, rounding off, investment in foreign securities,
procedure in case of delay in disclosure of NAV, please refer SAI.
Valuation of Silver

Silver are denominated in Silver tonnage, it will be valued based on the market price of Silver in the
domestic market and will be marked to market on a daily basis. The market price of Silver in the domestic
market on any Business Day would be arrived at as under:
Value of Silver:
The market price of Silver in the domestic market on any Business Day would be arrived at as under:
(1) The Silver held by the Scheme shall be valued at the AM fixing price of London Bullion Market
Association (LBMA) in US dollars per troy ounce for Silver having a fineness of 999.0 parts per thousand,
subject to the following:
(a) adjustment for conversion to metric measures as per standard conversion rates;
(b) adjustment for conversion of US dollars into Indian rupees as per the RBI reference rate declared by
the Foreign Exchange Dealers Association of India (FEDAI); and
(c) addition of -

(ii) notional customs duty and other applicable taxes and levies that may be normally incurred to
bring the Silver from London to the place where it is actually stored on behalf of the Fund:
Provided that the adjustment under clause (c) above may be made on the basis of a notional premium that is
usually charged for delivery of Silver to the place where it is stored on behalf of the Fund.
Provided further that where the Silver held by a Scheme has a greater fineness, the relevant LBMA prices of
AM fixing shall be taken as the reference price under this sub-paragraph.

fineness of 999 parts per thousand (or 99.9% purity)
confirming to London Bullion Market Association
(LBMA) Good Delivery Standards
Investment in ETCDs having silver as the underlying by
Silver ETFs will be subject to following conditions:
a) The exposure to ETCDs having silver as the
underlying shall not exceed 10% of net asset value of
the scheme. However, the above limit of 10% shall
not be applicable to Silver ETFs where the intention
is to take delivery of the physical silver and not to
roll over its position to next contract cycle.
b) Before investing in ETCDs having silver as the
underlying, mutual funds shall put in place a written
policy with regard to such investment with due
approval from the Board of the AMC and the
Trustees. The policy shall be reviewed by the Board
of AMC and Trustees at least once a year.
The cumulative gross exposure of the scheme through
Silver and Silver related instruments and Debt and
Money market instruments shall not exceed 100% of the
net assets of the scheme. However, cash or cash
equivalents with residual maturity of less than 91 days
may be treated as not creating any exposure. SEBI vide
letter dated November 3, 2021 has clarified that Cash
Equivalent shall consist of Government Securities, T-
Bills and Repo on Government Securities having
residual maturity of less than 91 days.
Con. Std. Obs. 14
It may be noted that the margin placed for taking
exposure to ETCDs are generally lower than the ETCD
exposure limit considered for the purposes of
monitoring investment limits and therefore, the residual
cash (i.e. ETCD exposure less placement of margin
towards participation in ETCDs) are placed in cash and
cash equivalents in the interest of investors. The said
placement in cash and cash equivalents shall not be
considered as part of the limit of 0% to 5% allocated
15towards Debt & Money Market Instruments.
Money Market instruments includes commercial papers,
commercial bills, Tri- party repos, treasury bills,
Government securities having residual maturity up to
one year, call or notice money, certificate of deposit,
usance bills, and any other like instruments as specified
by the Reserve Bank of India from time to time.
The physical silver shall be of standard 30 kg bars with
fineness of 999 parts per thousand (or 99.9% purity)
confirming to London Bullion Market Association
(LBMA) Good Delivery Standards. This may change as
per the regulatory guidelines in future. During buying or
selling, for a concerned transaction, in case of any
variation in the weight of the Silver bar (away from 1 kg),
same shall be adjusted in the cash component i.e. higher
weight will reduce cash component and lower weight
will increase cash component for the concerned investor.
The Scheme will not invest in the following instruments

Scheme.
In terms of SEBI Circular dated February 27, 2025,
AMC shall deploy the funds garnered in an NFO within
30 business days from the date of allotment of units. In
an exceptional case, if the AMC is not able to deploy the
funds in 30 business days, reasons in writing, including
details of efforts taken to deploy the funds, shall be
16placed before the Investment Committee of the AMC.
The Investment Committee may extend the timeline by

Liquidity/ Listing Through Stock Exchanges
The Units of the ETF are listed on the Capital Market Segment of the National Stock Exchange of
India Ltd (NSE) /BSE Limited (BSE) and/or any other recognised stock exchanges as may be
decided by the AMC from time to time.
All investors including Market Makers and Large Investors can subscribe (buy) / redeem (sell)
Units of the Scheme on a continuous basis on the NSE and/ or BSE on which the Units are listed
during the trading hours on all the trading days. The Units of the Scheme may be bought or sold
on all trading days at prevailing listed price on such Stock Exchange(s).
The AMC engages Market Makers to provide liquidity in the Secondary Market on an ongoing
basis, so that investors other than Market Makers and Large Investors are able to buy or redeem
Units on the Stock Exchange(s).
Directly with the Mutual Fund
• Market maker(s)- Market Makers can directly purchase/redeem units with the Fund in
“Creation Unit Size”. The limit of ₹ 25 crores or such other amount as may be specified
by SEBI from time to time is not applicable for Market Makers.
• Large Investor(s): Large investors who directly purchase/redeem from the fund in
“Creation unit size” subject to the value of the transaction is greater than the threshold of
₹ 25 crores or such other amount as may be specified by SEBI from time to time.
• Minimum number of units (Creation units)- 30,000 Units and multiples thereof
The AMC will appoint atleast two Market Maker(s) to provide for the liquidity in secondary
market on an ongoing basis. The Market Maker(s) would offer two-way quotes (buy and sell
quotes) in the secondary market for ensuring liquidity in the Units of the Scheme. The list of
market maker is available on AMC website. https://www.wealthcompanyamc.in/
Con. Std. Obs. 40
Redemption of units directly with the Mutual Fund (other than Authorized Participants):
Investors other than Market Makers can redeem units directly with the Fund for less than Creation
Unit size at approximately indicative NAV based prices (along with applicable charges and
execution variations) of units without any exit load if:
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.
Such instances shall be tracked by the AMC on an ongoing basis and in case any of the above
mentioned scenarios arises, the same shall be disclosed on the website of the Mutual Fund.
Under these circumstances, investors, as specified above, can redeem units of the Scheme directly
with the fund house without any exit load. The aforesaid criteria for direct redemption with the
fund house are also available on the website of the AMC. If the above criteria are triggered, no
exit load would be applicable in such cases.
18Disclosure Timings of NAV:
NAV disclosure
The AMC will calculate and disclose the NAVs on all Business Days. The AMC shall update the
Con. Std. Obs. 41 NAVs on its website (https://www.wealthcompanyamc.in/) and of the Association of Mutual
Funds in India - AMFI (www.amfiindia.com) before 9.00 a.m. on the following business day.
In case the NAV is not uploaded by 9.00 a.m. on the following business day it shall be explained
in writing to AMFI for non adherence of time limit for uploading NAV on AMFI’s website. If the
NAVs are not available before the commencement of business hours on the following day due to
any reason, the Mutual Fund shall issue a press release giving reasons and explaining when the
Mutual Fund would be able to publish the NAV. Investors may also place a specific request to the
Mutual Fund for sending latest available NAV through SMS.
Indicative Net Asset Value (iNAV): As per Clause 3.6.5.1 (c) of SEBI Master Circular, iNAV of
an ETF.
The Fund will also calculate intra-day indicative NAV and will be updated during the market
hours on the website of the Mutual Fund (https://www.wealthcompanyamc.in/). Indicative NAV
will be based on the latest available data for Silver. Accordingly, iNAV disclosed for Silver ETF
will be either static or dynamic depending upon the availability of the underlying prices. Intra-
day indicative NAV will not have any bearing on the creation or redemption of units directly
with the Fund by the Authorized Participants /Large Investors.
NAV will be determined for every Business Day except in special circumstances. NAV will be
calculated upto four decimal places. NAV of the Scheme shall be made available on the website
of AMFI (www.amfiindia.com) and the Mutual Fund (https://www.wealthcompanyamc.in/) by
9.00 a.m. on the following business day. Further, the indicative NAVs of Silver ETFs shall be
disclosed on Stock Exchange platforms, where the units of these ETFs are listed, on continuous
basis during the trading hours.
Methodology for calculation of NAV:
NAV of units under the Scheme shall be calculated as shown below:
NAV (Rs.) =
Market or Fair Value of + Current Assets - Current Liabilities and
Scheme's investments including Provisions
Accrued Income including accrued expenses
No. of Units outstanding under Scheme on the Valuation date
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.
Illustration:
Computation of NAV - 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:
Therefore, the NAV of the scheme is Rs. 22.000
Computation of Redemption Price - If the applicable NAV is Rs. 10, exit load is 2% then
redemption price will be: Rs. 10* (1-0.02) = Rs. 9.80
The Redemption Price will not be lower than 97% of the NAV
19Applicable timeline Timeline for Dispatch of redemption proceeds:
The Fund shall dispatch the redemption proceeds within 3 (three) working days from the date of
acceptance of duly filled in redemption request at any of the official point of acceptance of
transactions.
Further, the investor may note that in case of exceptional scenarios as prescribed by AMFI vide its
communication no. AMFI/ 35P/ MEM-COR/ 74 / 2022-23 dated January 16, 2023, read with
clause 14.2 of SEBI Master Circular dated June 27, 2024 (“SEBI Master Circular”), the AMC
might follow the additional timelines as prescribed. In case the Redemption proceeds are not made
within 3 working Days of the date of redemption or repurchase, interest will be paid @15% per
annum or such other rate from the 4th day onwards, as may be prescribed by SEBI from time to
time. Refer SAI for details on exceptional scenarios.

Risk factors Scheme Specific Risk:
The Scheme is subject to the specific risks that may adversely affect the Scheme’s NAV, return
and / or ability to meet its investment objective. The specific risk factors related to the Scheme
include, but are not limited to the following:
Risk factors associated with investing in Silver and Silver related instruments
• The NAV of the Units relates directly to the value of the Silver held by the Scheme
minus the expenses incurred in managing of the scheme including but not limited to
management fees, Operational expenses, cost incurred to buy and sell, taxes, other
charges, tracking error, tracking difference (Positive or negative) and fluctuations in the
price of could adversely affect investment value of the Units. The factors that may affect
the price of Silver, inter-alia, include economic and political developments, changes in
interest rates and perceived trends in bullion prices, exchange rates, inflation trends,
market movements, etc.
• Actual or perceived disruptions in the processes used to determine the LBMA Silver
Price, or lack of confidence in that benchmark, may adversely affect the return on your
investment in the scheme (if any).
• Future governmental decisions may have significant impact on the price of Silver, which
may result in a significant decrease or increase in the value of the net assets and the net
asset value.
• Because the ETF holds only Silver, an investment in the ETF may be more volatile than
an investment in a more broadly diversified portfolio.
• To the extent that demand for Silver exceeds the available supply at that time, Market
Makers may not be able to readily acquire sufficient amounts of Silver necessary for the
creation of a Basket. Market speculation in Silver could result in increased requests for
the issuances. It is possible that Market Makers may be unable to acquire sufficient
Silver that is acceptable for delivery for the issuance of new Baskets due to a limited
then-available supply coupled with a surge in demand for the ETF units. In such
circumstances, the AMC may suspend or restrict the issuance of Baskets. Such
occurrence may lead to further volatility in Share price and deviations, which may be
significant, in the market price of the ETF units relative to the NAV.
• The Silver market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that
have often been unrelated or disproportionate to factors such as Silver's uses in jewelry,
technology, and industrial applications, or cost and production levels in major Silver-
producing countries such as China, Mexico, and Peru. In particular, supply chain
disruptions resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak and investor speculation have
significantly contributed to recent price and volume fluctuations.
22• The formula for determining NAV of the Units is based on the imported (landed) value of
Silver. The landed value of Silver is computed by multiplying international market price
by US dollar value. The value of Silver or NAV, therefore will depend upon the
conversion value of US dollar into Indian rupee and attracts all the risks attached to such
conversion and forex volatility.
• There is no Exchange for physical Silver in India. The Scheme may have to buy or sell
Silver from the open market, which may lead to counter party risks for the Scheme for
trading and settlement.
• The returns from physical Silver in which the Scheme invests may underperform returns
from other securities or asset classes.
• There is a risk that part or all of the Scheme’s Silver could be lost, damaged or stolen.
Access to the Scheme’s Silver could also be restricted by natural events or human
actions. Any of these actions may have adverse impact on the operations of the Scheme
and consequently on investment / redemption in Units.
• The Scheme may retain certain investments in cash or cash equivalents for its day-to-day
liquidity requirements. The Scheme has to sell Silver only to bullion bankers / traders
who are authorized to buy Silver. Though, there are adequate numbers of players
(commercial or bullion bankers) to whom the Scheme can sell Silver, the Scheme may
have to resort to distress sale of Silver if there is no or low demand for Silver to meet its
cash needs of redemption or expenses. The distress sale may affect the redemption value
of the units adversely. The Trustee, in general interest of the Unit holders of the Scheme
offered under this Scheme Information 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.
• Any changes in trading regulations by the stock exchange(s) or SEBI may affect the ability
of Market Maker to arbitrage resulting into wider premium / discount to NAV. Any
changes in the regulations relating to import and export of Silver or Silver jewellery
(including customs duty, sales tax and any such other statutory levies) may affect the
ability of the Scheme to buy / sell Silver against the purchase and redemption requests
received.
• The Scheme is not actively managed. The performance of the Scheme may be affected by
a general price decline in the Silver prices. The Scheme invests in the physical Silver
regardless of their investment merit. The AMC does not attempt to take defensive
positions in declining markets.
• For the valuation of Silver by the Scheme, indirect taxes like customs duty, VAT, etc.
would also be considered. Hence, any change in the rates of indirect taxation / applicable
taxes would affect the valuation of the Scheme.
• Silver Exchange Traded Funds (GETFs) are relatively new products and their value
could decrease if unanticipated operational or trading problems arise. The Wealth
Company Silver ETF, an open ended Exchange Traded Fund, is therefore subject to
operational risks.
• Though this is an open-ended scheme, the Scheme would ordinarily repurchase Units in
Creation Unit Size. Thus Unit holding less than Creation Unit Size can only be sold
through the secondary market on the Exchange. Further, the price received upon the
redemption of Units of the Scheme may be less than the value of the Silver represented
by them.
• A day on which valuation on London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) is not available
shall not be a Business day and hence NAV for the said day shall not be available to the
Investors.
• The Wealth Company Silver ETF (the Scheme) is a passively managed fund that shall be
investing substantial portion of its assets in physical Silver and tracking its performance
as close as possible to the price of Silver. Therefore, irrespective of decline / rise in
prices of physical Silver, the Scheme shall remain invested in Silver and being a
23passively managed fund, no active calls based on outlook of Silver prices will be taken
by the Fund.
• Investments by the Scheme are subject to availability of Silver. If favorable investment
opportunities do not exist or opportunities have notably diminished, the scheme may
suspend accepting fresh subscriptions.
• Performance of the Scheme may be affected by political, social and economic
developments, which may include changes in government policies, diplomatic conditions,
taxation and other policies.
• ETF units are created to reflect, at any given time, the market price of Silver. Because
the value of ETFs depends on the price of Silver, it is subject to fluctuations similar to
those affecting Silver prices. The price of Silver has fluctuated widely over the past
several years. If Silver markets continue to be characterized by the wide fluctuations that
they have shown in the past several years, the price of the ETF units will change widely
and in an unpredictable manner. This exposes your investment in ETF units to potential
losses if you need to sell your ETF units at a time when the price of Silver is lower than it
was when you made your investment in ETF units. Even if you are able to hold ETF
units for the mid- or long-term you may never realize a profit, because Silver markets
have historically experienced extended periods of flat or declining prices. Investors
should be aware that while Silver is used to preserve wealth by investors around the
world, there is no assurance that Silver will maintain its long-term value in terms of
future purchasing power. In the event the price of Silver declines, it is expected the value
of an investment in the ETFs to decline proportionately.
• During the process of creation or redemption of the Scheme in creation unit size, the AMC
will source or sell the physical Silver from a counterparty. The price at which the Silver
is bought or sold at will include a spread also, apart from cost price of the Silver, taxes
and other transaction cost. Thus cost may vary depending on the source from which
Silver is bought or sold, due to different cost being changed by the counterparty. This
varying buying or selling cost will impact the cost at which units are created for the
investor or redeemed for the investor. AMC will most likely be passing on all the cost
associated with buying and selling of the physical Silver, including spread, transaction
cost, taxes etc. on to the investor/investors. This will impact the per unit cost realized by
the investor in case of creation or redemption directly with the AMC.
• The AMC within the regulatory guidelines and room given in Scheme information
document, may use derivative on Silver (like Futures) for rebalancing, holding, creation
of fresh units or redemption of existing units for the Scheme. The use of derivatives may
affect the performance of the scheme and tracking error. It may also impact the value at
units are created or redeemed by the scheme.
• If the process of creation and redemption of Baskets encounters any unanticipated
difficulties or is materially restricted due to any illiquidity in the market for physical
Silver, the possibility for arbitrage transactions by Market Makers, intended to keep the
price of the ETF units closely linked to the price of Silver may not exist and, as a result,
the price of the ETF units may fall or otherwise diverge from NAV.
24Risks associated with handling, storing and safekeeping of physical Silver:
All physical Silver procured must follow the LMBA guidelines as per prescribed SEBI
guidelines. Risk arises when part or all of the Silver held by the Fund could be lost, stolen or
damaged and access to Silver may be restricted due to natural calamities or human actions, loss or
damage directly or indirectly occasioned by, happening through or in consequence of war,
invasion, acts of foreign enemies, hostilities (whether war be declared or not), civil war, rebellion,
revolution, insurrection, military or usurped power. Loss due to aridity, humidity, exposure to
light or extremes of temperature. Hence, the Custodian maintains insurance in regard to the
business on terms and conditions and the custodian is also responsible for all costs arising from
the insurance policies. The custodian taking delivery on behalf of the AMC needs to ensure the
weight, purity, and the source of Silver as specified under the LMBA guidelines. Since this is
paramount to the SEBI guidelines the risk arises in violation of same. Safekeeping of physical
Silver requires appropriate vaulting space, confirming to the best global standards. The vaulting
agents engaged by the custodian needs to ensure the same.
Risks Related to the Custody of Silver
• The Custodian is responsible for the safekeeping of the Silver bullion and also facilitates
the transfer of Silver bullion into and out of the vault. Although the Custodian is a
market maker, clearer and approved weigher under the rules of the LBMA (which sets
out good practices for participants in the bullion market), the LBMA is not an official or
governmental regulatory body. Accordingly, the ETF is dependent on the Custodian to
comply with the best practices of the LBMA and to implement satisfactory internal
controls for its Silver bullion custody operations in order to keep the Silver bullion
secure.
• The Custodian is responsible for loss or damage to the Silver only under limited
circumstances. The Custodian Agreement contemplates that the Custodian will be
responsible to the AMC only if it acts with negligence, fraud or in willful default of its
obligations under the Custodian Agreement. In addition, the Custodian has agreed to
indemnify the Trust for any loss or liability directly resulting from a breach of the
Custodian’s representations and warranties in the Custodian Agreement, a failure of the
Custodian to act in accordance with the instructions or any physical loss, destruction or
damage to the Silver held for the Trust’s account, except for losses due to nuclear fission
or fusion, radioactivity, war, terrorist event, invasion, insurrection, civil commotion, riot,
strike, act of government or public authority, act of God or a similar cause that is beyond
the control of the Custodian for which the Custodian will not be responsible to the AMC.
The Custodian’s liability to the AMC, if any, will be limited to the value of any Silver
lost, or the amount of any balance held on an unallocated basis, at the time of the
Custodian’s negligence, fraud or willful default, or at the time of the act or omission
giving rise to the claim for indemnification.
• Neither the Shareholders nor any Market Makers have a right under the Custodian
Agreement to assert a claim against the Custodian. Claims under the Custodian Agreement
may only be asserted by the AMC.
• The procedures agreed to with the Custodian contemplate that the Custodian must
undertake certain tasks in connection with the inspection of Silver delivered by Market
Makers in exchange for Baskets. The Custodian’s inspection includes review of the
corresponding bar list to ensure that it accurately describes the weight, fineness, refiner
marks and bar number appearing on the Silver bars, but does not include any chemical or
other tests designed to verify that the Silver received does, in fact, meet the
purity
25requirements. Accordingly, such inspection procedures may not prevent the deposit of
Silver that fails to meet these purity standards. The Custodian will not be responsible or
liable to the Trust or to any investor in the event any Silver otherwise properly inspected
by it does not meet the purity requirements.
• The AMC does not insure its Silver (Underlying Silver of the scheme). The Custodian
maintains insurance on such terms and conditions as it considers appropriate in connection
with its custodial obligations under the Custodian Agreement and is responsible for all
costs, fees and expenses arising from the insurance policy or policies. The AMC is not a
beneficiary of any such insurance and does not have the ability to dictate the existence,
nature or amount of coverage. Therefore, Shareholders cannot be assured that the
Custodian maintains adequate insurance or any insurance with respect to the Silver held
by the Custodian on behalf of the Trust.
Risk associated with Tracking Error and Tracking Difference:
The Fund Manager would not be able to invest the entire corpus in physical Silver due to certain
factors such as the fees and expenses of the Scheme, corporate actions, cash balance, changes to
the underlying index and regulatory restrictions, which may result in Tracking Error with the
underlying index. The Scheme’s returns may therefore deviate from those of the underlying index.
“Tracking Error” is defined as the standard deviation of the difference between daily returns of the
underlying index and the NAV of the Scheme. Tracking Difference” is the annualized difference
of daily returns between the goods and the NAV of the scheme (difference between fund return
and the goods return). Tracking Error and Tracking difference may arise including but not limited
to the following reasons:
• Expenditure incurred by the Fund.
• Available funds may not be invested at all times as the Scheme may keep a portion of
the funds in cash to meet Redemptions, for corporate actions or otherwise. • Securities
trading may halt temporarily due to circuit filters.
• Corporate actions such as debenture or warrant conversion, rights issuances, mergers,
change in constituents etc.
• Rounding-off of the quantity of shares in the underlying index.
• Dividend payout.
• Index providers undertake a periodical review of the scrips that comprise the
underlying index and may either drop or include new scrips. In such an event, the
Fund will try to reallocate its portfolio but the available investment/reinvestment
opportunity may not permit absolute mirroring immediately.
SEBI Regulations (if any) may impose restrictions on the investment and/or divestment activities
of the Scheme Such restrictions are typically outside the control of the AMC and may cause or
exacerbate the Tracking Error. It will be the endeavor of the fund manager to keep the tracking
error as low as possible. However, in case of events like, dividend received from underlying
securities, rights issue from underlying securities, and market volatility during rebalancing of the
portfolio following the rebalancing of the underlying index, etc. or in abnormal market
circumstances may result in tracking error. There can be no assurance or guarantee that the Scheme
will achieve any particular level of tracking error relative to performance of the Index. The
tracking error i.e. the annualized standard deviation of the difference in daily returns between the
underlying index or goods and the NAV of the ETF/ Index Fund (other than Debt ETFs/ Index
Funds) based on past one year rolling data shall not exceed 2%.
In case of unavoidable circumstances in the nature of force majeure, beyond the control of the
AMCs, this may exceed 2% then it shall be brought to the notice of Trustees with corrective
actions taken by the AMC, if any.
Risks associated with Investing in Derivatives/ETCD:
Con. Std. Obs. 28
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
26be 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. whenever the Scheme trade 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 analyses different from those
associated with 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 the
possibility that a loss may be sustained by the portfolio as a result of the failure of another party
(usually referred to as the “counter party”) 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 derivativeto correlate perfectly with underlying assets, rates and indices.
Derivatives are highly leveraged instruments. Even a small price movement in the underlying
security could have a large impact on their value. Also, the market for derivative instruments is
nascent in India.
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 specific risk factors arising out of a derivative strategy used by the Fund Manager may be as
below:
• Lack of opportunity available in the market.
The risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the inability of derivatives to correlate perfectly
with underlying assets, rates and indices.
Risks associated with segregated portfolio:
Liquidity risk – A segregated portfolio is created when a credit event / default occurs at an issuer
level in the scheme. This may reduce the liquidity of the security issued by the said issuer, as
demand for this security may reduce. This is also further accentuated by the lack of secondary
market liquidity for corporate papers in India. As per SEBI norms, the scheme is to be closed for
redemption and subscriptions until the segregated portfolio is created, running the risk of investors
being unable to redeem their investments. However, it may be noted that, the proposed segregated
portfolio is required to be formed within one day from the occurrence of the credit event.
Investors may note that no redemption and subscription shall be allowed in the segregated portfolio.
However, in order to facilitate exit to unit holders in segregated portfolio, AMC shall list the units
of the segregated portfolio on a recognized stock exchange within 10 working days of creation of
segregated portfolio and also enable transfer of such units on receipt of transfer requests. For the
units listed on the exchange, it is possible that the market price at which the units are traded may
be at a discount to the NAV of such Units. There is no assurance that an active secondary market
will develop for units of segregated portfolio listed on the stock exchange. This could limit the
ability of the investors to resell them.
Valuation risk - The valuation of the securities in the segregated portfolio is required to be carried
out in line with the applicable SEBI guidelines. However, it may be difficult to ascertain the fair
value of the securities due to absence of an active secondary market and difficulty to price in
qualitative factors.
Risks Associated with Debt & Money Market Instruments
• Price-Risk or Interest-Rate Risk: Fixed income securities such as bonds, debentures and money
market instruments run price-risk or interest-rate risk. Generally, when interest rates rise, prices
of existing fixed income securities fall and when interest rates drop, such prices increase. The
extent of fall or rise in the prices is a function of the existing coupon, days to maturity and the
27increase or decrease in the level of interest rates.
• Credit Risk: In simple terms this risk means that the issuer of a debenture/ bond or a money
market instrument 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 go down because the credit
rating of an issuer goes down. It must, however, be noted that where the Scheme has invested in
Government securities, there is no credit risk to that extent.
• Liquidity or Marketability Risk: This refers to the ease with which a security can be sold at or
near to its valuation yield-to-maturity (YTM). The primary measure of liquidity risk is the spread
between the bid price and the offer price quoted by a dealer. Liquidity risk is today characteristic
of the Indian fixed income market.
• Reinvestment Risk: Investments in fixed income securities may carry reinvestment risk as
interest rates prevailing on the interest or maturity due dates may differ from the original coupon
of the bond. Consequently, the proceeds may get invested at a lower rate.
• Pre-payment Risk: Certain fixed income securities give an issuer the right to call back its
securities before their maturity date, in periods of declining interest rates. The possibility of such
prepayment may force the fund to reinvest the proceeds of such investments in securities offering
lower yields, resulting in lower interest income for the fund.
• Spread Risk: In a floating rate security the coupon is expressed in terms of a spread or mark up
over the benchmark rate. In the life of the security this spread may move adversely leading to loss
in value of the portfolio. The yield of the underlying benchmark might not change, but the spread
of the security over the underlying benchmark might increase leading to loss in value of the
security.
• Concentration Risk: The Scheme portfolio may have higher exposure to a single sector, subject
to maximum of 20% of net assets, depending upon availability of issuances in the market at the
time of investment, resulting in higher concentration risk. Any change in government policy /
businesses environment relevant to the sector may have an adverse impact on the portfolio.
• Different types of securities in which the scheme would invest as given in the SID 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 amount of risk than Government
securities. Further even among corporate bonds, bonds, which are AA rated, are comparatively
more risky than bonds, which are AAA rated.
Risk factors associated with processing of transaction through Stock Exchange Mechanism
The trading mechanism introduced by the stock exchange(s) is configured to accept and process
transactions for mutual fund units in both Physical and Demat Form. The allotment and/or
redemption of Units through NSE and/or BSE or any other recognised stock exchange(s), on any
Business Day will depend upon the modalities of processing viz. collection of application form,
order processing/settlement, etc. upon which the Fund has no control. However, units of the
Scheme can only be subscribed in demat mode. 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 associated with investment in units of mutual funds:
• The Scheme may invest in other scheme(s) managed by the AMC or in schemes of other
mutual funds, provided such investments are in conformity with the investment objectives of the
Scheme and in accordance with terms of the prevailing SEBI Regulations. Such investments in
other schemes may provide the Scheme access to a specialised investment area or economic
sector which can be more effectively accessed by investing in the underlying scheme(s). The
28Fund Manager will only make such investments if it determines
in its discretion that to do so is consistent with the interests of the Unit holders of the Scheme.
• The Scheme may invest in schemes operated by third parties. Considering third parties are not
subject to the oversight or control of the AMC, the Fund Manager may not have the
opportunity to verify the compliance of such schemes with the laws and regulations applicable
to them.
• It is possible that a number of underlying scheme(s) might take substantial positions in the same
security at the same time. This inadvertent concentration may interfere with the Scheme’s goal
of diversification. The AMC would attempt to alleviate any potential inadvertent
concentration as part of its regular monitoring and reallocation process. Conversely the AMC
may at any given time, hold opposite positions, such position being taken by different
underlying scheme(s). Each such position shall result in transaction fees for the Scheme without
necessarily resulting in either a loss or a gain. Moreover, the AMC may proceed to a
reallocation of assets between the underlying scheme(s) and liquidate investments made in
one or several of them.
• Further, many of the underlying scheme(s) in which the Scheme may invest could use special
investment techniques or concentrate its investments in only one geographic area or asset
investment category, which may subject the Scheme’s investments to risks different from
those posed by investments in equity or fixed income scheme(s) or risks of the market and of
rapid changes to the relevant geographic area or investment category.
• When the Scheme invests in other schemes, the Unit holders in the Scheme will also incur fees
and expenses (such as, but not limited to, management fees, custody fees, registrar fees, audit
fees, etc.) at the level of the underlying scheme in accordance with the offering documents of
the relevant scheme(s) and the limits prescribed under the SEBI Regulations.
• No assurance can be given that the strategies employed by other schemes in the past to
achieve attractive returns will continue to be successful or that the return on the Scheme’s
investments will be similar to that achieved by the Scheme or other schemes in the past.
Risk Mitigation Strategies:
Con. Std. Obs. 9
The AMC incorporates necessary framework in place for risk mitigation at an enterprise level, and
scheme level in accordance with the Risk Management Framework prescribed by the SEBI. The
Risk Management division of the AMC is an independent division within the organisation. Internal
risk thresholds are defined and judiciously monitored. Risk indicators on various parameters are
computed and are monitored on a regular basis. The Risk Management Committee of the Board
enables a dedicated focus on risk factors and the relevant risk mitigants from time to time. In
addition, to minimise the major risks, the following measures are taken:
Risk & Description Risk mitigants / management strategy
Risk associated with Tracking Error and Over a short period, the Scheme may carry
Tracking Difference the risk of variance between portfolio
composition and Benchmark. The
objective of the Scheme is to closely track
the performance of physical Silver prices
over the same period, subject to tracking
error. The Scheme would endeavor to
maintain a low tracking error and tracking
difference by actively aligning the
portfolio in line
with the Index.
Price risk: Fluctuations in the price of The Scheme is passively managed and
Silver Fluctuations in Silver prices will not
increase the tracking error.
Liquidity risk: Inability to buy/ sell The Scheme has to sell Silver only to
appropriate quantities of Silver. designated bankers / traders who are
29authorized to buy Silver. Though there are
adequate numbers of players to whom the
Scheme can sell Silver the Scheme may
have to resort to distress sale of Silver if
there is no or low demand for Silver to
meet its cash needs of redemption or
expenses.
Event risk/Custody Risk: Risk of There is a risk that part or all of the physical
loss, damage, the, impurity etc. of Silver. Silver belonging to the Scheme could be
lost, damaged or stolen. In order to ensure
safety, the said Silver will be stored with
a custodian in its
vaults. Silver held by custodians is also
insured. The custodian will insure/cover all
such risks
Exchange Traded Commodity Derivatives Investment in commodities has an inherent
(ETCD) market risk in terms of volatility, which
cannot be mitigated generally. However,
SEBI has allowed participation in ETCDs
only which are likely to have enough
liquidity in the market. The settlement risk
shall be mitigated by ensuring that the
trade positions do not fall in delivery
mode. However, as mutual fund schemes
participating in ETCDs may hold the
underlying goods in case of physical
settlement of contracts, such goods shall
be disposed of from the books of the
scheme, at the earliest, not exceeding
the
timeline prescribed under the Regulations.
Debt and Money Market instruments • Credit 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.
• 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 shortterm
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 the
30scheme is primarily as a cash
management strategy and such strategy
returns are expected to reflect the very
short term interest rate hence
investment is made 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.
Risk associated with investment in units of The Mutual Fund Schemes are highly
Mutual Fund regulated by SEBI and they have to ensure
compliance with the applicable regulatory
requirements thereby mitigating the risk.
Further, the 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.
Risks associated with segregated The Scheme will endeavor to realize the
portfolio segregated holding in the best interest of
the investor at the earliest.

• Portfolio Turnover measures the volume of trading that occurs in a Scheme’s portfolio
(Silver in this scheme) during a given time period. The Scheme is an open-ended Exchange
Traded Fund. It is therefore expected that there would be a number of subscriptions and
redemptions on a daily basis through Stock Exchange(s) or with The Wealth Company Mutual
Fund directly by Authorised Participants and Large Investors that may require purchase or sale
of Silver. In view of the nature of the Scheme, it is difficult to estimate with any reasonable
measure of accuracy, the likely turnover in the portfolio.

mode (e-CAS) by the 12th day from the month end and to investors who have opted for delivery
via physical mode by the 15th day from the month end.
Con. Std. Obs. 57(a)
For folios where there are no transactions during the half – year, the depositories shall dispatch a
consolidated statement (for investors having a demat account) i.e. half-yearly CAS at the end of
every six months (i.e. September/ March) to investors that have opted for e-CAS on or before the
