I. INTRODUCTION
A. Risk Factors
STANDARD RISK FACTORS
 Investment in Mutual Fund units involves investment risks such as trading volumes,
settlement risk, liquidity risk, default risk including the possible loss of principal.
 As the price / value / interest rates of the securities in which the Scheme invests
fluctuate, the value of your investment in the Scheme may go up or down.
 The NAVs of the Scheme may be affected by changes in the general market
conditions, factors and forces affecting capital market, in particular, level of interest
rates, various markets related factors and trading volumes, settlement periods and
transfer procedures.
 Past performance of the Sponsors, AMC/Fund does not guarantee the future
performance of the Scheme.
 ICICI Prudential Business Cycle Fund is the name of the Scheme and does not in any
manner indicate either the quality of the Scheme or its future prospects and returns.
 The Sponsors are not responsible or liable for any loss resulting from the operation
of the Scheme beyond the contribution of an amount of Rs. 22.2 lacs collectively
made by them towards setting up the Fund and such other accretions and additions
to the corpus set up by the Sponsors.
 The Scheme is not a guaranteed or assured return Scheme.
 All Mutual Funds and securities investments are subject to market risks and there can
be no assurance or guarantee that the objectives of the Scheme will be achieved.
 The NAV of the Scheme can go up or down depending on the factors and forces
affecting the securities markets.
 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
Scheme.
 As the liquidity of the Scheme’s investments could at times, be restricted by trading
volumes and settlement periods, the time taken by the Scheme for redemption of
units may be significant or may also result in delays in redemption of the units, in the
event of an inordinately large number of redemption requests or of a restructuring of
the Scheme’s portfolio. In view of this the Trustee has the right, at their sole
discretion to limit redemptions (including suspending redemption) under certain
circumstances.
 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 amount 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.
 The Scheme may invest in ADRs/GDRs, equity of overseas companies listed on
recognized stock exchanges overseas and other securities in accordance with the
provisions of SEBI Circular No. SEBI/IMD/CIR No. 7/104753/07 dated September 26,
2007 and SEBI/IMD/CIR No. 122577/08 dated April 8, 2008 and
SEBI/HO/IMD/DF3/CIR/P/2020/225 dated November 5, 2020, subject to a maximum of
US$ 600 million per mutual fund. Aggregate ceiling for investment by Mutual Funds in
overseas Exchange Traded Fund (ETF(s)) that invest in securities is US $ 200 million
per Mutual Fund.
 Investors may note that AMC/Fund Manager’s investment decisions may not be
always profitable as the actual market movement may be at variance with the
anticipated trend. The Scheme proposes to invest substantially in equity and equity
related securities. The Scheme will, to a lesser extent, also invest in debt and money
market instruments. The inability of the Scheme to make intended securities
purchases due to settlement problems could cause the Scheme to miss certain
investment opportunities. By the same rationale, the inability to sell securities held in
the Scheme’s portfolio due to the absence of a well developed and liquid secondary
market for debt securities would result, at times, in potential losses to the Scheme, in
case of a subsequent decline in the value of securities held in the Scheme’s portfolio.
SCHEME SPECIFIC RISK FACTORS
1. Investing in Equities
 Investors may note that AMC/Fund Manager’s investment decisions may not be
always profitable, as actual market movements may be at variance with anticipated
trends. Trading volumes, settlement periods and transfer procedures may restrict the
liquidity of these investments. Different segments of the Indian financial markets have
different settlement periods and such periods may be extended significantly by
unforeseen circumstances. The inability of the Schemes to make intended securities
purchases due to settlement problems could cause the Schemes to miss certain
investment opportunities.
 The value of the Schemes’ investments, may be affected generally by factors affecting
securities markets, such as price and volume volatility in the capital markets, interest
rates, currency exchange rates, changes in policies of the Government, taxation laws
or any other appropriate authority policies and other political and economic
developments which may have an adverse bearing on individual securities, a specific
sector or all sectors including equity and debt markets. Consequently, the NAV of the
Units of the Schemes may fluctuate and can go up or down.
 Investors may note that dividend is due only when declared and there is no assurance
that a company (even though it may have a track record of payment of dividend in the
past) may continue paying dividend in future. As such, the schemes are vulnerable to
instances where investments in securities may not earn dividend or where lesser
dividend is declared by a company in subsequent years in which investments are
made by schemes. As the profitability of companies are likely to vary and have a
material bearing on their ability to declare and pay dividend, the performance of the
schemes may be adversely affected due to such factors.
 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. The liquidity of the Schemes’ investments is inherently restricted by
trading volumes in the securities in which it invests.
 Fund manager endeavors to generate returns based on certain past statistical trend.
The performance of the schemes may get affected if there is a change in the said
trend. There can be no assurance that such historical trends will continue.
 In case of abnormal circumstances it will be difficult to complete the square off

transaction due to liquidity being poor in stock futures/spot market. However fund will
aim at taking exposure only into liquid stocks where there will be minimal risk to
square off the transaction. The Schemes investing in foreign securities will be
exposed to settlement risk, as different countries have different settlement periods.

 The schemes are also vulnerable to movements in the prices of securities invested by
the schemes which again could have a material bearing on the overall returns from
the schemes. These stocks, at times, may be relatively less liquid as compared to
growth stocks.
 Changes in Government policy in general and changes in tax benefits applicable to

mutual funds may impact the returns to investors in the Schemes or business
prospects of the Company in any particular sector.
2. Risk factors associated with investing in Preference Shares
 Credit Risk - Investments in Preference Shares are subject to the risk of an issuer's
inability to meet dividend and redemption by the issuer. Further, for non-cumulative
preference shares, issuer also has an option to not pay dividends on preference
shares in case of inadequate profits in any year.
 Liquidity Risk - Preference shares lack a well-developed secondary market, which may
restrict the selling ability of the Scheme(s) and may lead to the Scheme(s) incurring
losses till the security is finally sold.
 Unsecured in nature - Preference shares are unsecured in nature and rank lower than
secured and unsecured debt in hierarchy of payments in case of liquidation. Thus,
there is significant risk of capital erosion in case the company goes into liquidation.
 Market Risk – The schemes will be vulnerable to movements in the prices of securities
invested by the schemes which could have a material bearing on the overall returns
from the schemes.
3. Investing in Fixed Income Securities
 Market Risk: The Net Asset Value (NAV) of the Scheme(s), to the extent invested in
Debt and Money Market securities, will be affected by changes in the general level of
interest rates. The NAV of the Scheme(s) is expected to increase from a fall in interest
rates while it would be adversely affected by an increase in the level of interest rates.
 Liquidity Risk: Money market securities, while fairly liquid, lack a well-developed
secondary market, which may restrict the selling ability of the Scheme(s) and may
lead to the Scheme(s) incurring losses till the security is finally sold.
 Credit Risk: Investments in Debt Securities are subject to the risk of an issuer's
inability to meet interest and principal payments on its obligations and market
perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer.
 Price Risk: Government securities where a fixed return is offered run price-risk like
any other fixed income security. Generally, when interest rates rise, prices of fixed
income securities fall and when interest rates drop, the prices increase. The extent of
fall or rise in the prices is a function of the existing coupon, days to maturity and the
increase or decrease in the level of interest rates. The new level of interest rate is
determined by the rates at which government raises new money and/or the price
levels at which the market is already dealing in existing securities. The price-risk is
not unique to Government Securities. It exists for all fixed income securities.
However, Government Securities are unique in the sense that their credit risk
generally remains zero. Therefore, their prices are influenced only by movement in
interest rates in the financial system.
 Reinvestment Risk: This risk refers to the interest rate levels at which cash flows
received from the securities in the Scheme are reinvested. The additional income
from reinvestment is the “interest on interest” component. The risk is that the rate at
which interim cash flows can be reinvested may be lower than that originally
assumed.
 Different types of fixed income securities in which the Scheme(s) 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.
 The AMC may, considering the overall level of risk of the portfolio, invest in lower
rated / unrated securities offering higher yields as well as zero coupon securities that
offer attractive yields. This may increase the absolute level of risk of the portfolio.
 As zero coupon securities does not provide periodic interest payments to the holder
of the security, these securities are more sensitive to changes in interest rates.
Therefore, the interest rate risk of zero coupon securities is higher. The AMC may
choose to invest in zero coupon securities that offer attractive yields. This may
increase the risk of the portfolio.
 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 AMC may choose to invest in unlisted securities that offer attractive
yields. This may increase the risk of the portfolio.
 The Scheme(s) at times may receive large number of redemption requests, leading to
an asset-liability mismatch and therefore, requiring the investment manager to make
a distress sale of the securities leading to realignment of the portfolio and
consequently resulting in investment in lower yield instruments.
 Scheme’s performance may differ from the benchmark index to the extent of the
investments held in the debt segment, as per the investment pattern indicated under
normal circumstances.
 Investment in unrated instruments may involve a risk of default or decline in market

value higher than rated instruments due to adverse economic and issuer-specific
developments. Such investments display increased price sensitivity to changing
interest rates and to a deteriorating economic environment. The market values for
unrated investments tends to be more volatile and such securities tend to be less
liquid than rated debt securities
 Changes in government policy in general and changes in tax benefits applicable to
Mutual Funds may impact the returns to investors in the Schemes.
 The inability of the Schemes to make intended securities purchases due to settlement
problems could cause the Schemes to miss certain investment opportunities. By the
same rationale, the inability to sell securities held in the Schemes’ portfolio due to the
extraneous factors that may impact liquidity would result, at times, in potential losses
to the Scheme, in case of a subsequent decline in the value of securities held in the
Schemes’ portfolio.
4. Risks associated with investment in ADR/GDR/Foreign Securities / Overseas ETFs:
It is AMC’s belief that the investment in ADRs/GDRs/overseas securities / Overseas

ETFs offers new investment and portfolio diversification opportunities into multi-
market and multi-currency products. However, such investments also entail
additional risks. Such investment opportunities may be pursued by the AMC
provided they are considered appropriate in terms of the overall investment
objectives of the schemes. Since the Schemes would invest only partially in
ADRs/GDRs/overseas securities / Overseas ETFs, there may not be readily available
and widely accepted benchmarks to measure performance of the Schemes. To
manage risks associated with foreign currency and interest rate exposure, the
Scheme may use derivatives for efficient portfolio management including hedging
and in accordance with conditions as may be stipulated by SEBI/RBI from time to
time.
To the extent that the assets of the Scheme will be invested in securities
denominated in foreign currencies, the Indian Rupee equivalent of the net assets,
distributions and income may be adversely affected by the changes in the value of
certain foreign currencies relative to the Indian Rupee. The repatriation of capital also
may be hampered by changes in regulations concerning exchange controls or
political circumstances as well as the application to it of the other restrictions on
investment.
Offshore investments will be made subject to any/all approvals, conditions thereof as

may be stipulated by SEBI/RBI and provided such investments do not result in
expenses to the Scheme in excess of the ceiling on expenses prescribed by and
consistent with costs and expenses attendant to international investing. The Scheme
may, where necessary, appoint other intermediaries of repute as advisors,
custodian/sub-custodians etc. for managing and administering such investments. The
appointment of such intermediaries shall be in accordance with the applicable
requirements of SEBI and within the permissible ceilings of expenses. The fees and
expenses would illustratively include, besides the investment management fees,
custody fees and costs, fees of appointed advisors and sub-managers, transaction
costs, and overseas regulatory costs.
Investors are requested to note that the costs associated with overseas investments
like advisory fees (other than those expenses permissible under regulation 52 of SEBI
Regulations) would not be borne by the scheme.
5. Risks associated with Investing in Derivatives:
The Schemes may use various derivative products as permitted by the Regulations.
Use of derivatives requires an understanding of not only the underlying instrument
but also of the derivative itself. Other risks include the risk of mis-pricing or improper
valuation and the inability of derivatives to correlate perfectly with underlying assets,
rates and indices.
The Fund may use derivatives instruments like Stock /Index Futures or other
derivative instruments for the purpose of hedging and portfolio balancing, as
permitted under the Regulations and guidelines. Usage of derivatives will expose the
Schemes to certain risks inherent to such derivatives.
Derivative products are leveraged instruments and can provide disproportionate

gains as well as disproportionate losses to the investor. Execution of such strategies
depends upon the ability of the fund manager to identify such opportunities.
Identification and execution of the strategies to be pursued by the fund manager
involve uncertainty and decision of fund manager may not always be profitable. No
assurance can be given that the fund manager will be able to identify or execute such
strategies.
Thus, 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.
 Execution Risk: The prices which are seen on the screen need not be the same at
which execution will take place
 Basis Risk: This risk arises when the derivative instrument used to hedge the
underlying asset does not match the movement of the underlying asset being
hedged
 Exchanges could raise the initial margin, variation margin or other forms of
margin on derivative contracts, impose one sided margins or insist that margins
be placed in cash. All of these might force positions to be unwound at a loss, and
might materially impact returns.
Additional risks for writing covered call options for equity shares
Writing call options are highly specialized activities and entail higher than ordinary
investment risks. In such investment strategy, the profits from call option writing is
capped at the option premium, however the downside depends upon the increase in
value of the underlying equity shares.
1. The Scheme may write covered call option only in case it has adequate number of
underlying equity shares as per regulatory requirement. This would lead to setting
aside a portion of investment in underlying equity shares. If covered call options are
sold to the maximum extent allowed by regulatory authority, the scheme may not be
able to sell the underlying equity shares immediately if the view changes to sell and
exit the stock. The covered call options need to be unwound before the stock
positions can be liquidated. This may lead to a loss of opportunity, or can cause exit
issues if the strike price at which the call option contracts have been written become
illiquid. Hence, the scheme may not be able to sell the underlying equity shares,
which can lead to temporary illiquidity of the underlying equity shares and result in
loss of opportunity.

2. The writing of covered call option would lead to loss of opportunity due to
appreciation in value of the underlying equity shares. Hence, when the appreciation in
equity share price is more than the option premium received the scheme would be at
a loss.
3. The total gross exposure related to option premium paid and received must not
exceed the regulatory limits of the net assets of the scheme. This may restrict the
ability of Scheme to buy any options.
Benefits of using Covered Call strategy in Mutual Funds:
The covered call strategy can be followed by the Fund Manager in order to hedge risk
thereby resulting in better risk adjusted returns of the Scheme. The strategy offers the
following benefits:
a. Hedge against market risk - Since the fund manager sells a call option on a stock
already owned by the mutual fund scheme, the downside from fall in the stock
price would be lower to the extent of the premium earned from the call option.
b. Generating additional returns in the form of option premium in a range bound
market.
Thus, a covered call strategy involves gains for unit holders in case the strategy plays out
in the right direction.
RISK FACTORS WITH RESPECT TO IMPERFECT HEDGING USING INTEREST RATE

FUTURES
An Interest Rate Futures is an agreement to buy or sell a debt instrument at a specified

future date at a price that is fixed today. Interest Rate Futures are Exchange traded. These
future contracts are cash settled.
1. Perfect Hedging means hedging the underlying using IRF contract of same underlying.
2. Imperfect hedging means the underlying being hedged and the IRF contract has
correlation of closing prices of more than 90%.
In case of imperfect hedging, the portfolio can be a mix of:
1) Corporate Bonds and Government securities or
2) Only Corporate debt securities or
3) Only government securities with different maturities
Risk associated with imperfect hedging includes:
Basis Risk: The risk arises when the price movements in derivative instrument used to
hedge the underlying assets does not match the price movements of the underlying
assets being hedged. Such difference may potentially amplify the gains or losses, thus
adding risk to the position.
Price Risk: The risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the inability of derivatives to
Risk of mismatch between the instruments: The risk arises if there is a mismatch
between the prices movements in derivative instrument used to hedge, compared to the
price movement of the underlying assets being hedged. For example when IRF which
has government security as underlying is used, to hedge a portfolio that contains
corporate debt securities.
Correlation weakening and consequent risk of regulatory breach: SEBI Regulation

mandates minimum correlation criterion of 0.9 (calculated on a 90 day basis) between

the portfolio being hedged and the derivative instrument used for hedging. In cases
where the correlation falls below 0.9, a rebalancing period of 5 working days has been
permitted. Inability to satisfy this requirement to restore the correlation level to the
stipulated level, within the stipulated period, due to difficulties in rebalancing would lead
to a lapse of the exemption in gross exposure computation. The entire derivative
exposure would then need to be included in gross exposure, which may result in gross
exposure in excess of 100% of net asset value.
6. Risks associated with investing in Securitised Debt:
A securitization transaction involves sale of receivables by the originator (a bank, non-

banking finance company, housing finance company, microfinance companies or a
manufacturing/service company) to a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), typically set up
in the form of a trust. Investors are issued rated Pass Through Certificates (PTCs), the
proceeds of which are paid as consideration to the originator. In this manner, the
originator, by selling his loan receivables to an SPV, receives consideration from
investors much before the maturity of the underlying loans. Investors are paid from
the collections of the underlying loans from borrowers. Typically, the transaction is
provided with a limited amount of credit enhancement (as stipulated by the rating
agency for a target rating), which provides protection to investors against defaults by
the underlying borrowers. Generally available asset classes for securitization in India
are:
o Commercial vehicles
o Auto and two wheeler pools
o Mortgage pools (residential housing loans)
o Personal loan, credit card and other retail loans
o Corporate loans/receivables
o Microfinance receivables
In pursuance to SEBI communication dated: August 25, 2010, given below are the
requisite details relating to investments in Securitized debt.
 Risk profile of securitized debt vis-à-vis risk appetite of the scheme:
Investment in these instruments will help the scheme in aiming at reasonable

returns. These returns come with a certain degree of risks which are covered
separately in the Scheme Information Document. Accordingly, the medium risk
profile of the securitised debt instruments matches that of the prospective investors
of these Schemes.
 Policy relating to originators based on nature of originator, track record, NPAs, losses
in earlier securitized debt, etc.
 Risk mitigation strategies for investments with each kind of originator
For a complete understanding of the policy relating to selection of originators, we

have first analysed below risks attached to a securitization transaction.
In terms of specific risks attached to securitization, each asset class would have
different underlying risks, however, residential mortgages are supposed to be having
lower default rates as an asset class. On the other hand, repossession and
subsequent recovery of commercial vehicles and other auto assets is fairly easier
and better compared to mortgages. Some of the asset classes such as personal
loans, credit card receivables etc., being unsecured credits in nature, may witness
higher default rates. As regards corporate loans/receivables, depending upon the
nature of the underlying security for the loan or the nature of the receivable the risks
would correspondingly fluctuate. However, the credit enhancement stipulated by
rating agencies for such asset class pools is typically much higher, which helps in
making their overall risks comparable to other AAA/AA rated asset classes.
The Scheme may invest in securitized debt assets. These assets would be in the
nature of Asset Backed securities (ABS) and Mortgage Backed securities (MBS) with
underlying pool of assets and receivables like housing loans, auto loans and single
corporate loan originators. The Scheme intends to invest in securitized instruments
rated AAA/AA by a SEBI recognized credit rating agency.
Before entering into any securitization transaction, the risk is assessed based on the
information generated from the following sources:
(1) Rating provided by the rating agency

(2) Assessment by the AMC
(1) Assessment by a Rating Agency
In its endeavor to assess the fundamental uncertainties in any securitization

transaction, a credit rating agency normally takes into consideration following
factors:
Credit Risk:
Credit risk forms a vital element in the analysis of securitization transaction.

Adequate credit enhancements to cover defaults, even under stress scenarios,
mitigate this risk. This is done by evaluating following risks:
o Asset risk
o Originator risk
o Portfolio risk
o Pool risks
The quality of the pool is a crucial element in assessing credit risk. In the Indian
context, generally, pools are ‘cherry-picked’ using positive selection criteria. To
protect the investor from adverse selection of pool contracts, the rating agencies
normally take into consideration pool characteristics such as pool seasoning
(seasoning represents the number of installments paid by borrower till date:
higher seasoning represents better quality), over dues at the time of selection and
Loan to Value (LTV). To assess its risk profile vis-à-vis the overall portfolio, the pool
is analyzed with regard to geographical location, borrower profile, LTV, and tenure.
Counterparty Risk:
There are several counterparties in a securitization transaction, and their

performance is crucial. Unlike in the case of credit risks, where the risks emanate
from a diversified pool of retail assets, counterparty risks result in either
performance or non-performance. The rating agencies generally mitigate such risks
through the usage of stringent counterparty selection and replacement criteria to
reduce the risk of failure. The risks assessed under this category include:

o Servicer risk
o Commingling risk
o Miscellaneous other counterparty risks
Legal Risks:
The rating agency normally conducts a detailed study of the legal documents to
ensure that the investors' interest is not compromised and relevant protection and
safeguards are built into the transaction.
Market Risks:
Market risks represent risks not directly related to the transaction, but other market
related factors, stated below, which could have an impact on transaction
performance, or the value of the investments to the investors.
o Macro-economic risks
o Prepayment risks
o Interest rate risks
Other Risks associated with investment in securitized debt and mitigation measures
Limited Liquidity and Price Risk:
There is no assurance that a deep secondary market will develop for the Certificates.
This could limit the ability of the investor to resell them.
Risk Mitigation: Securitized debt instruments are relatively illiquid in the secondary
market and hence they are generally held to maturity. The liquidity risk and HTM
nature is taken into consideration at the time of analyzing the appropriateness of the
securitization.
Limited Recourse, Delinquency and Credit Risk:
The Credit Enhancement stipulated represents a limited loss cover to the Investors.
These Certificates represent an undivided beneficial interest in the underlying
receivables and do not represent an obligation of either the Issuer or the Seller or
the originator, or the parent or any affiliate of the Seller, Issuer and Originator. No
financial recourse is available to the Certificate Holders against the Investors'
Representative. Delinquencies and credit losses may cause depletion of the amount
available under the Credit Enhancement and thereby the Investor Payouts to the
Certificate Holders may get affected if the amount available in the Credit
Enhancement facility is not enough to cover the shortfall. On persistent default of an
Obligor to repay his obligation, the Servicer may repossess and sell the Asset.
However many factors may affect, delay or prevent the repossession of such Asset
or the length of time required to realise the sale proceeds on such sales. In addition,
the price at which such Asset may be sold may be lower than the amount due from
that Obligor.
Risk Mitigation: In addition to careful scrutiny of credit profile of borrower/pool

additional security in the form of adequate cash collaterals and other securities may
be obtained to ensure that they all qualify for similar rating.

Risks due to possible prepayments: Weighted Tenor / Yield
Asset securitisation is a process whereby commercial or consumer credits are

packaged and sold in the form of financial instruments Full prepayment of
underlying loan contract may arise under any of the following circumstances;
o Obligor pays the Receivable due from him at any time prior to the scheduled
maturity date of that Receivable; or
o Receivable is required to be repurchased by the Seller consequent to its
inability to rectify a material misrepresentation with respect to that Receivable;
or
o The Servicer recognizing a contract as a defaulted contract and hence
repossessing the underlying Asset and selling the same
o In the event of prepayments, investors may be exposed to changes in tenor
and yield.
Risk Mitigation: A certain amount of prepayments is assumed in the calculations at

the time of purchase based on historical trends and estimates. Further a stress case
estimate is calculated and additional margins are built in.
Bankruptcy of the Originator or Seller:
If originator becomes subject to bankruptcy proceedings and the court in the

bankruptcy proceedings concludes that the sale from originator to Trust was not a
sale then an Investor could experience losses or delays in the payments due. All
possible care is generally taken in structuring the transaction so as to minimize the
risk of the sale to Trust not being construed as a “True Sale”. Legal opinion is
normally obtained to the effect that the assignment of Receivables to Trust in trust
for and for the benefit of the Investors, as envisaged herein, would constitute a true
sale.
Risk Mitigation: Normally, specific care is taken in structuring the securitization

transaction so as to minimize the risk of the sale to the trust not being construed as a
'true sale'. It is also in the interest of the originator to demonstrate the transaction as
a true sell to get the necessary revenue recognition and tax benefits.
Bankruptcy of the Investor’s Agent:
If Investor’s agent becomes subject to bankruptcy proceedings and the court in the
bankruptcy proceedings concludes that the recourse of Investor’s Agent to the
assets/receivables is not in its capacity as agent/Trustee but in its personal capacity,
then an Investor could experience losses or delays in the payments due under the
swap agreement. All possible care is normally taken in structuring the transaction
and drafting the underlying documents so as to provide that the assets/receivables if
and when held by Investor’s Agent is held as agent and in Trust for the Investors and
shall not form part of the personal assets of Investor’s Agent. Legal opinion is
normally obtained to the effect that the Investors Agent’s recourse to
assets/receivables is restricted in its capacity as agent and trustee and not in its
personal capacity.
Risk Mitigation: All possible care is normally taken in structuring the transaction and
drafting the underlying documents so as to provide that the assets/receivables if and
when held by Investor’s Agent is held as agent and in Trust for the Investors and
shall not form part of the personal assets of Investor’s Agent.
Credit Rating of the Transaction / Certificate:
The credit rating is not a recommendation to purchase, hold or sell the Certificate in
as much as the ratings do not comment on the market price of the Certificate or its
suitability to a particular investor. There is no assurance by the rating agency either
that the rating will remain at the same level for any given period of time or that the
rating will not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by the rating agency.
Risk of Co-mingling:
With respect to the Certificates, the Servicer will deposit all payments received from
the Obligors into the Collection Account. However, there could be a time gap
between collection by a Servicer and depositing the same into the Collection
account especially considering that some of the collections may be in the form of
cash. In this interim period, collections from the Loan Agreements may not be
segregated from other funds of originator. If originator in its capacity as Servicer fails
to remit such funds due to Investors, the Investors may be exposed to a potential
loss.
(2) Assessment by the AMC
Mapping of structures based on underlying assets and perceived risk profile
The scheme will invest in securitized debt originated by Banks, NBFCs and other
issuers of investment grade credit quality and established track record. The AMC will
evaluate following factors, while investing in securitized debt:
Originator:
Acceptance Evaluation Parameters (For Pool Loan and Single Loan Securitization
Transactions)
Track record:
The AMC ensures that there is adequate past track record of the Originator before
selection of the pool including a detailed look at the number of issuances in past,
track record of issuances, experience of issuance team, etc.
Willingness to pay:
As the securitized structure has underlying collateral structure, depending on the

asset class, historical NPA trend and other pool / loan characteristics, a credit
enhancement in the form of cash collateral, such as fixed deposit, bank, guarantee
etc. is obtained, as a risk mitigation measure.
Ability to pay:
This assessment is based on a strategic framework for credit analysis, which entails
a detailed financial risk assessment.
Management analysis is used for identifying company specific financial risks. One of
the most important factors for assessment is the quality of management based on its
past track record and feedback from market participants. In order to assess financial
risk a broad assessment of the issuer’s financial statements is undertaken to review

its ability to undergo stress on cash flows and asset quality. Business risk
assessment, wherein following factors are considered:
o Outlook for the economy (domestic and global)

o Outlook for the industry
o Company specific factors
In addition a detailed review and assessment of rating rationale is done including

interactions with the company as well as agency
Critical Evaluation Parameters (For Pool Loan and Single Loan Securitization
Transactions)
Typically the AMC would avoid investing in securitization transaction (without

specific risk mitigant strategies / additional cash/security collaterals/ guarantees) if
there are concerns on the following issues regarding the originator / underlying
issuer:
 High default track record/ frequent alteration of redemption conditions / covenants

 High leverage ratios – both on a standalone basis as well on a consolidated level/
group level
 Higher proportion of reschedulement of underlying assets of the pool or loan, as
the case may be
 Higher proportion of overdue assets of the pool or the underlying loan, as the
case may be
 Poor reputation in market
 Insufficient track record of servicing of the pool or the loan, as the case may be.
Advantages of Investments in Single Loan Securitized Debt
1. Wider Coverage: A Single Loan Securitized Debt market offers a more diverse
range of issues / exposures as the Banks / NBFCs lend to larger base of
borrowers.
2. Credit Assessment: Better credit assessment of the underlying exposure as the
Banks / NBFCs ideally co-invest in the same structure or take some other
exposure on the same borrower in some other form.
3. Better Structuring : Single Loan Securitized Debt investments facilitates better
structuring than investments in plain vanilla debt instruments as it is governed by
Securitization guidelines issued by RBI.
4. Better Legal documentation: Single Loan Securitized Debt structures involve
better legal documentation than Non-Convertible Debenture (NCD) investments.
5. End use of funds: Securitized debt has better standards of disclosures as well as
limitation on end use of funds as compared to NCD investments wherein the end
use is general corporate purpose.
6. Yield enhancer: Single Loan Securitized Debt investments give higher returns as
compared to NCD investments in same corporate exposure.
7. Regulator supervision: Macro level supervision from RBI in Securitization
Investments as compared to NCD investments.
8. Tighter covenants: Single Loan Securitized Debt structures involve tighter
financial covenants than NCD investments.
Disadvantages of Investments in Single Loan Securitized Debt
 Liquidity risk: Investments in Single Loan Securitized Debts have relatively less

liquidity as compared to investments in NCDs.
 Co-mingling risk: Servicers in a securitization transaction normally deposit all
payments received from the obligors into a collection account. However, there
could be a time gap between collection by a servicer and depositing the same into
the collection account. In this interim period, collections from the loan agreements
by the servicer may not be segregated from other funds of the servicer. If the
servicer fails to remit such funds due to investors, investors in the Scheme may
be exposed to a potential loss.
Table below illustrates the framework that will be applied while evaluating investment
decision relating to a pool securitization transaction:

Notes:
1. Retail pools are the loan pools relating to Car, 2 wheeler, micro finance and
personal loans, wherein the average loan size is relatively small and spread over
large number of borrowers.
2. Information illustrated in the Tables above, is based on the current scenario
relating to Securitized Debt market and is subject to change depending upon the
change in the related factors.
3. The level of diversification with respect to the underlying assets, and risk
mitigation measures for less diversified investments
4. Majority of our securitized debt investments shall be in asset backed pools
wherein we’ll have underlying assets as Medium and Heavy Commercial Vehicles,
Light Commercial Vehicles (LCV), Cars, and Construction Equipment etc. Where
we invest in Single Loan Securitization, as the credit is on the underlying issuer,
we focus on the credit review of the borrower. A credit analyst sets up limit for
various issuers based on independent research taking into account their historical
track record, prevailing rating and current financials.
In addition to the framework as per the table above, we also take into account
following factors, which are analyzed to ensure diversification of risk and measures
identified for less diversified investments:
 Size of the Loan:

We generally analyze the size of each loan on a sample basis and analyze a static
pool of the originator to ensure the same matches the Static pool characteristics.
Also indicates whether there is excessive reliance on very small ticket size, which
may result in difficult and costly recoveries. To illustrate, the ticket size of housing
loans is generally higher than that of personal loans. Hence in the construction of
a housing loan asset pool for say Rs.1,00,00,000/- it may be easier to construct a
pool with just 10 housing loans of Rs.10,00,000 each rather than to construct a
pool of personal loans as the ticket size of personal loans may rarely exceed
Rs.5,00,000/- per individual. Also to amplify this illustration further, if one were to
construct a pool of Rs.1,00,00,000/- consisting of personal loans of Rs.1,00,000/-
each, the larger number of contracts (100 as against one of 10 housing loans of
Rs.10 lakh each) automatically diversifies the risk profile of the pool as compared
to a housing loan based asset pool.
 Average Original Maturity of the Pool:

Indicates the original repayment period and whether the loan tenors are in line
with industry averages and borrower’s repayment capacity. To illustrate, in a car
pool consisting of 60-month contracts, the original maturity and the residual
maturity of the pool viz. number of remaining installments to be paid gives a
better idea of the risk of default of the pool itself. If in a pool of 100 car loans
having original maturity of 60 months, if more than 70% of the contracts have
paid more than 50% of the installments and if no default has been observed in
such contracts, this is a far superior portfolio than a similar car loan pool where
80% of the contracts have not even crossed 5 installments.
 Default Rate Distribution:

We generally ensure that all the contracts in the pools are current to ensure zero
default rate distribution. Indicates how much % of the pool and overall portfolio of
the originator is current, how much is in 0-30 DPD (days past due), 30-60 DPD, 60-
90 DPD and so on. The rationale here being, as against 0-30 DPD, the 60-90 DPD
is certainly a higher risk category.
 Geographical Distribution:
Regional/state/ branch distribution is preferred to avoid concentration of assets in
a particular region/state/branch.
 Loan to Value Ratio:

Indicates how much % value of the asset is financed by borrower’s own equity.
The lower LTV, the better it is. This Ratio stems from the principle that where the
borrowers own contribution of the asset cost is high, the chances of default are
lower. To illustrate for a Truck costing Rs.20 lakhs, if the borrower has himself
contributed Rs.10 lakh and has taken only Rs.10 lakh as a loan, he is going to have
lesser propensity to default as he would lose an asset worth Rs.20 lakhs if he
defaults in repaying an installment. This is as against a borrower who may meet
only Rs.2 lakh out of his own equity for a truck costing Rs.20 lakh. Between the
two scenarios given above, the latter would have higher risk of default than the
former.

 Average seasoning of the pool:
Indicates whether borrowers have already displayed repayment discipline. To
illustrate, in the case of a personal loan, if a pool of assets consist of those who
have already repaid 80% of the installments without default, this certainly is a
superior asset pool than one where only 10% of installments have been paid. In
the former case, the portfolio has already demonstrated that the repayment
discipline is far higher.
 Risk Tranching:
Typically, we would avoid investing in mezzanine debt or equity of Securitized
debt in the form of sub ordinate tranche, without specific risk mitigant strategies /
additional cash / security collaterals/ guarantees, etc.
 The mechanism to tackle conflict of interest when the mutual fund invests in
securitized debt of an originator and the originator in turn makes investments in
that particular scheme of the fund
Investments made by the scheme in any asset are done based on the
requirements of the scheme and is in accordance with the investment policy. All
Investments are made entirely at an arm's length basis with no consideration of
any existing / consequent investments by any party related to the transaction
(originator, issuer, borrower etc.). Investments made in Securitized debt are made
as per the Investment pattern of the Scheme and are done after detailed analysis
of the underlying asset. There might be instances of Originator investing in the
same scheme but both the transactions are at arm's length and avoid any conflict
of interest. In addition to internal controls in the fixed income investment process,
there is regular monitoring by the compliance team, risk management group, and
internal review teams. Normally the issuer who is securitizing instrument is in
need of money and is unlikely to have long term surplus to invest in mutual fund
scheme.
 In general, the resources and mechanism of individual risk assessment with the
AMC for monitoring investment in securitized debt
The risk assessment process for securitized debt, as detailed in the preceding
paragraphs, is same as any other credit. The investments in securitized debt are
done after appropriate research by credit analyst. The ratings are monitored for
any movement. Monthly Pool Performance MIS is received from the trustee and is
analyzed for any variation. The entire securitized portfolio is published in the fact
sheet and disclosed in the website with details of underlying exposure and
originator.
7. Risks associated with Securities Lending & Borrowing (SLB)
Securities lending is 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.
The risks in security lending consist of the failure of intermediary / counterparty, to

comply with the terms of agreement entered into between the lender of securities i.e.
the Scheme and the intermediary / counterparty. 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 scheme may not be able to
sell lent out securities, which can lead to temporary illiquidity & loss of opportunity.
Investors are requested to refer to section “How will the Scheme allocate its assets?”
for maximum permissible exposure to Securities Lending & Borrowing.
The AMC shall report to the Trustee on a quarterly basis as to the level of lending in
terms of value, volume and the names of the intermediaries and the earnings/losses
arising out of the transactions, the value of collateral security offered etc. The
Trustees shall offer their comments on the above aspect in the report filed with SEBI
under sub-regulation 23(a) of Regulation 18.
8. Risk Factors associated with Thematic Schemes:
Investing in thematic schemes is based on the premise that the Scheme will seek to
invest in companies belonging to a specific sector / theme. This will limit the
capability of the Scheme to invest in other sectors/theme.
The Scheme would invest in equity and equity related securities of companies
engaged in the particular sector / theme and hence concentration risk is expected to
be high.
Also, as with all equity investing, there is a risk that companies in that specific sector /
theme will not achieve its expected earnings results, or that an unexpected change in
the market or within the company will occur, both of which may adversely affect
investment results. Thus investing in a sector /theme specific scheme could involve
potentially greater volatility and risk.
9. Risk factors associated with creation of segregated portfolios
1. Liquidity risk – A segregated portfolio is created when a credit event 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 a deep 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.
2. 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.
10. Risks associated with Investing in Structured Obligation (SO) & Credit Enhancement
(CE) rated securities:
 The risks factors stated below for the Structured Obligations & Credit Enhancement
are in addition to the risk factors associated with debt instruments.
 Credit rating agencies assign CE rating to an instrument based on any identifiable

credit enhancement for the debt instrument issued by an issuer. The credit
enhancement could be in various forms and could include guarantee, shortfall
undertaking, letter of comfort, etc. from another entity. This entity could be either
related or non-related to the issuer like a bank, financial institution, etc. Credit
enhancement could include additional security in form of pledge of shares listed on
stock exchanges, etc. SO transactions are asset backed/ mortgage backed securities,
securitized paper backed by hypothecation of car loan receivables, securities backed
by trade receivables, credit card receivables etc. Hence, for CE rated instruments
evaluation of the credit enhancement provider, as well as the issuer is undertaken to
determine the issuer rating. In case of SO rated issuer, the underlying loan pools or
securitization, etc. is assessed to arrive at rating for the issuer
 Liquidity Risk: SO rated securities are often complex structures, with a variety of
credit enhancements. Debt securities lack a well-developed secondary market in
India, and due to the credit enhanced nature of CE securities as well as structured
nature of SO securities, the liquidity in the market for these instruments is adversely
affected compared to similar rated debt instruments. Hence, lower liquidity of such
instruments, could lead to inability of the scheme to sell such debt instruments and
generate liquidity for the scheme or higher impact cost when such instruments are
sold.
 Credit Risk: The credit risk of debt instruments which are CE rated derives rating
based on the combined strength of the issuer as well as the structure. Hence, any
weakness in either the issuer or the structure could have an adverse credit impact on
the debt instrument. The weakness in structure could arise due to ability of the
investors to enforce the structure due to issues such as legal risk, inability to sell the
underlying collateral or enforce guarantee, etc. In case of SO transactions,
comingling risk and risk of servicer increases the overall risk for the securitized debt
or assets backed transactions. Therefore apart from issuer level credit risk such debt
instruments are also susceptible to structure related credit risk.
11. Risk associated with Investing in money market instruments
• Interest Rate risk: This risk is associated with movements in interest rate, which
depend on various factors such as government borrowing, inflation, economic
performance etc. The values of investments will appreciate/depreciate if the interest
rates fall/rise.
• Credit risk: This risk arises due to any uncertainty in counterparty's ability or
willingness to meet its contractual obligations. This risk pertains to the risk of default
of payment of principal and interest
• Liquidity risk: The liquidity of a security may change depending on market conditions
leading to changes in the liquidity premium linked to the price of the security. At the

time of selling the security, the security can become illiquid leading to loss in the
value of the portfolio
12. 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”.
As 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.
13. Risk Factors associated with schemes investing in Gilt Securities
Generally, when interest rates rise, prices of fixed income securities fall and when
interest rates drop, the prices increase. The extent of fall or rise in prices is a function
of the existing coupon, days to maturity and the increase or decrease in interest
rates. Price-risk is not unique to government securities but is true for all fixed income
securities. The default risk however, in respect of Government securities is zero.
Therefore, their prices are influenced only by movement in interest rates in the
financial system. On the other hand, in the case of corporate or institutional fixed
income securities, such as bonds or debentures, prices are influenced by credit
standing of the issuer as well as the general level of interest rates.
Even though the Government securities market is more liquid compared to other
debt instruments, on occasions, there could be difficulties in transacting in the market
due to extreme volatility or unusual constriction in market volumes or on occasions
when an unusually large transaction has to be put through.
14. Risk Factors Associated with Investments in REITs and InvITS:
Market Risk:
REITs and InvITs are volatile and prone to price fluctuations on a daily basis owing to
market movements. Investors may note that AMC/Fund Manager’s investment
decisions may not always be profitable, as actual market movements may be at
variance with the anticipated trends. The NAV of the Scheme is vulnerable to
movements in the prices of securities invested by the scheme, due to various market
related factors like changes in the general market conditions, factors and forces
affecting capital market, level of interest rates, trading volumes, settlement periods
and transfer procedures. The scheme will undertake active portfolio management as
per the investment objective to reduce the marker risk.
Liquidity Risk:
As the liquidity of the investments made by the Scheme(s) could, at times, be

restricted by trading volumes and settlement periods, the time taken by the Mutual
Fund for liquidating the investments in the scheme may be high in the event of
immediate redemption requirement. Investment in such securities may lead to
increase in the scheme portfolio risk. The fund will try to maintain a proper asset-
liability match to ensure redemption payments are made on time and not affected by
illiquidity of the underlying units.
Reinvestment Risk:
Investments in REITs & InvITs may carry reinvestment risk as there could be
repatriation of funds by the Trusts in form of buyback of units or dividend pay-outs,
etc. Consequently, the proceeds may get invested in assets providing lower returns.
However, the reinvestment risk will be limited as the proceeds are expected to be a
small portion of the portfolio value.
The above are some of the common risks associated with investments in REITs &
InvITs. There can be no assurance that a Scheme's investment objectives will be
achieved, or that there will be no loss of capital. Investment results may vary
substantially on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis.
RISK MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES:
The Scheme by utilizing a holistic risk management strategy will endeavour to

manage risks associated with investing in debt and equity markets. The risk control
process involves identifying & measuring the risk through various risk measurement
tools. The Scheme has identified following risks of investing in equity and debt and
designed risk management strategies, which are embedded in the investment
process to manage such risks.

B. Requirement of minimum investors in the Scheme:
The Scheme shall have a minimum of 20 investors and no single investor shall account
for more than 25% of the corpus of the Scheme. However, if such limit is breached
during the NFO of the Scheme, the Fund will endeavour to ensure that within a period of
three months or the end of the succeeding calendar quarter from the close of the NFO of
the Scheme, whichever is earlier, the Scheme complies with these two conditions. In
case the Scheme does not have a minimum of 20 investors in the stipulated period, the
provisions of Regulation 39(2)(c) of the SEBI (MF) Regulations would become applicable
automatically without any reference from SEBI and accordingly the Scheme shall be

wound up and the units would be redeemed at applicable NAV. The two conditions
mentioned above shall also be complied within each subsequent calendar quarter
thereafter, on an average basis, as specified by SEBI. If there is a breach of the 25% limit
by any investor over the quarter, a rebalancing period of one month would be allowed
and thereafter the investor who is in breach of the rule shall be given 15 days’ notice to
redeem his exposure over the 25% limit. Failure on the part of the said investor to
redeem his exposure over the 25% limit within the aforesaid 15 days would lead to
automatic redemption by the Mutual Fund on the applicable Net Asset Value on the 15th
day of the notice period. The Scheme shall adhere to the requirements prescribed by
SEBI from time to time in this regard.

reasons for deviation shall be recorded in writing. The internal investment committee
shall then decide on the future course of action.
The securities mentioned in the asset allocation pattern could be privately placed or
unsecured. The securities may be acquired through secondary market purchases, Initial
Public Offering (IPO), other public offers, Private Placement, right offers (including
renunciation) and negotiated deals.
It may be noted that no prior intimation/indication would be given to investors when the
composition/asset allocation pattern under the scheme undergo changes within the
permitted band as indicated above or for changes due to defensive positioning of the
portfolio with a view to protect the interest of the unit holders on a temporary basis. The
investors/unit holders can ascertain details of asset allocation of the scheme as on the
last date of each month on AMC’s website at www.icicipruamc.com that will display the
asset allocation of the scheme as on the given day.
Considering the inherent characteristics of the Scheme, equity positions would have to
built-up gradually and also sold off gradually. This would necessarily entail having large
cash position before the portfolio is fully invested and during periods when equity
positions are being sold off to book profits/losses or to meet redemption needs.
Investors may note that securities, which endeavor to provide higher returns typically,
display higher volatility. Accordingly, the investment portfolio of the Scheme would
reflect moderate to high volatility in its equity and equity related investments and low to
moderate volatility in its debt and money market investments.
Change in Investment Pattern
Subject to the Regulations, the asset allocation pattern indicated above may change from
time to time, keeping in view market conditions, market opportunities, applicable
regulations and political and economic factors. Though every endeavor will be made to
achieve the objectives of the Scheme, the AMC/Sponsors/Trustee do not guarantee that
the investment objectives of the Scheme will be achieved.
Provided further and subject to the above, any change in the asset allocation affecting
the investment profile of the Scheme shall be effected only in accordance with the
provisions of sub regulation (15A) of Regulation 18 of the Regulations, as detailed later in
this document.

POSITION OF EQUITY MARKET IN INDIA
The Indian stock market is one of the world’s largest stock market. There are two leading
stock exchanges in India, i.e. BSE Limited (BSE) and National Stock Exchange of India
Limited (NSE). BSE was established in 1875 and is the oldest stock exchange in Asia.
NSE, a more recent establishment which came into existence in 1992, is the largest and
most advanced stock market in India and is also one of the biggest stock exchanges in
Asia in terms of transactions. NSE's flagship index, NIFTY 50, is used extensively by
investors in India and around the world to take exposure to the Indian equities market.
BSE has a large number of scrips which are listed. The Indian stock market scene really
picked up after the opening up of the economy in the early nineties. NSE changed the
way the Indian markets function, in the early nineties, by replacing floor based trading
with nationwide screen based electronic trading, which took trading to the doorstep of
the investor. NSE was mainly set up to bring in transparency in the markets. Instead of
trading membership being confined to a group of brokers, NSE ensured that anyone who
was qualified, experienced and met minimum financial requirements was allowed to
trade. The price information which could earlier be accessed only by a handful of people
could now be seen by a client in a remote location with the same ease. The paper based
settlement was replaced by electronic depository based accounts and settlement of
trades was always done on time. One of the most critical changes was that a robust risk
management system was set in place, so that settlement guarantees could protect
investors against broker defaults. The corporate governance rules were gradually put in
place which initiated the process of bringing the listed companies at a uniform level.

POSITION OF DEBT MARKET IN INDIA

Indian debt markets, in the early nineties, were characterised by controls on pricing of
assets, segmentation of markets and barriers to entry, low levels of liquidity, limited
number of players, near lack of transparency, and high transactions cost. Financial
reforms have significantly changed the Indian debt markets for the better. Most debt
instruments are now priced freely on the markets; trading mechanisms have been
altered to provide for higher levels of transparency, higher liquidity, and lower
transactions costs; new participants have entered the markets, broad basing the types of
players in the markets; methods of security issuance, and innovation in the structure of
instruments have taken place; and there has been a significant improvement in the
dissemination of market information. There are three main segments in the debt markets
in India, viz., Government Securities, Public Sector Units (PSU) bonds, and corporate
securities. A bulk of the debt market consists of Government Securities. Other
instruments available currently include Corporate Debentures, Bonds issued by Financial
Institutions, Commercial Paper, Certificates of Deposits and Securitized Debt. Securities
in the Debt market typically vary based on their tenure and rating. Government Securities
have tenures from one year to thirty years whereas the maturity period of the Corporate
Debt now goes upto sixty years and more (perpetual). Perpetual bonds are now issued
by banks as well. Securities may be both listed and unlisted and there is increasing trend
of securities of maturities of over one year being listed by issuers. While in the corporate
bond market, deals are conducted over telephone and are entered on principal-to-
principal basis, due to the introduction of the Reserve Bank of India's NDS- Order
Matching system a significant proportion of the government securities market is trading
on the new system.
The yields and liquidity on various securities as on November 30, 2020 are as under:
Issuer Instrument Maturity Yields (%) Liquidity

GOI Treasury Bill 91 days 6.11% High
GOI Treasury Bill 364 days 6.42% High
GOI Short Dated 1-3 Yrs 3.33%-4.35% High
GOI Medium Dated 3-5 Yrs 4.35%-5.08% High
GOI Long Dated 5-10 Yrs 5.08%-5.91 % High
Corporates Taxable Bonds (AAA) 1-3 Yrs 3.89 %-4.71% Medium
Corporates Taxable Bonds (AAA) 3-5 Yrs 4.71%-5.55% Low to medium
Corporates CDs (A1+) 3 months 2.95% Medium to High
Corporates CPs (A1+) 3 months 7.44% Medium to High
E. What are the investment strategies?
The Scheme will be a diversified equity fund which will invest predominantly in equity
and equity related securities with focus on riding business cycles through dynamic
allocation between various sectors and stocks at different stages of business cycles.
Business cycles in an economy are typically characterized by the fluctuations in

economic activity measured by real Gross Domestic Product growth and other
macroeconomic variables. A business cycle is basically defined in terms of periods of
expansion and contraction. During expansions, the economy is growing in real terms
(i.e. excluding inflation), as evidenced by increases in indicators like employment,
industrial production, sales and personal incomes. During Contraction, the economy is
contracting, as measured by decreases in the above indicators.
The business cycle can be effectively used to position one’s investment portfolio. The
business cycle is a critical determinant of equity sector performance over the

intermediate term. The Scheme would aim to deploy the business cycle approach in
investing by identifying economic trends and investing in the sectors and stocks that are
likely to outperform at any given stage of business cycle. The fund manager will consider
economic parameters (like Current Account Deficit, fiscal deficit, interest rates, inflation),
investment indicators (like investment in capex, new projects cleared, etc.), business and
consumer sentiment (purchasing manager index, business confidence index, sales of
various consumer discretionary products, etc.) to decide on the expansion or contraction
phase. For instance, during the early expansion phase, cyclical stocks tend to
outperform. In the contraction period, the defensive groups like health care, consumer
staples, etc. outperform because of their stable cash flows and dividend yields.
The Scheme can also invest in other equity and equity related instruments.
The Scheme may also use various derivatives and hedging products from time to time,
as would be available and permitted by SEBI, in an attempt to protect the value of the
portfolio and enhance Unit holders’ interest.
The Scheme may also invest in foreign securities, depository receipts including
American Depository Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depository Receipts (GDRs). The
scheme may also invest in Units issued by REITs & InvITs, preference shares and other
permissible asset classes after doing due research on the same.
Further, the Scheme may invest in other schemes managed by the AMC or in the
schemes of any other Mutual Funds in terms of the prevailing Regulations. As per the
Regulations, no investment management fees will be charged for such investments.
For the present, the Scheme does not intend to enter into underwriting obligations.
However, if the Scheme does enter into an underwriting agreement, it would do so after
complying with the Regulations and with the prior approval of the Board of the
AMC/Trustee.
Fixed Income securities
The Scheme may also invest in Debt and Money Market Securities/Instruments (Money
Market securities include cash and cash equivalents). The Scheme aims to identify
securities which offer optimal level of yields/returns, considering risk-reward ratio. With
the aim of controlling risks rigorous in depth credit evaluation of the securities proposed
to be invested in will be carried out by the Risk Management Team of the AMC. The
credit evaluation includes a study of the operating environment of the issuer, the short as
well as long-term financial health of the issuer. Rated debt instruments in which the
Scheme invests will be of investment grade as rated by a credit rating agency. The AMC
may consider the ratings of such Rating Agencies as approved by SEBI to carry out the
functioning of rating agencies. The Scheme may invest in securitised debt.
In addition, the investment team of the AMC will study the macro economic conditions,
including the political, economic environment and factors affecting liquidity and interest
rates. The AMC would use this analysis to attempt to predict the likely direction of
interest rates and position the portfolio appropriately to take advantage of the same.
The Scheme may use derivative instruments like Interest Rate Swaps, Interest Rate
Futures, Forward Rate Agreements Stock / Index Futures or Options or other instruments
for the purpose of hedging, portfolio balancing and other purposes, as permitted under
the Regulations. Hedging using Interest Rate Futures could be perfect or imperfect,
subject to applicable regulations. Usage of derivatives may expose the Scheme to
certain risks inherent to such derivatives. It may also invest in securitized debt.
Portfolio Turnover
Portfolio turnover is defined as the lower of purchases and sales after reducing all
subscriptions and redemptions transactions there from and calculated as a percentage of
the average assets under management of the Scheme during a specified period of time.
Given that the Scheme is an open ended Scheme, it is expected that there would be a
number of subscriptions and redemptions on a daily basis. Also, portfolio turnover
would be impacted by investment strategy of the scheme. Hence, it is difficult to
estimate with any reasonable measure of accuracy, the likely turnover in the portfolio.
SEGREGATION OF PORTFOLIOS
The AMC may create a segregated portfolio of debt and money market instruments in a
mutual fund scheme in case of a credit event and to deal with liquidity risk.
In this regard, the term ‘segregated portfolio’ shall mean a portfolio comprising of debt
or money market instrument affected by a credit event, that has been segregated in a
mutual fund scheme and the term ‘main portfolio’ shall mean the scheme portfolio
excluding the segregated portfolio. The term ‘total portfolio’ shall mean the scheme
portfolio including the securities affected by the credit event.
A segregated portfolio may be created in a mutual fund scheme in case of a credit event
at issuer level i.e. downgrade in credit rating by a SEBI registered Credit Rating Agency
(CRA), as under:
a. Downgrade of a debt or money market instrument to ‘below investment grade’, or

b. Subsequent downgrades of the said instruments from ‘below investment grade’,
or
c. Similar such downgrades of a loan rating.
In case of difference in rating by multiple CRAs, the most conservative rating shall be
considered. Creation of segregated portfolio shall be based on issuer level credit events
as detailed above and implemented at the ISIN level.
The AMC may also create a segregated portfolio of unrated debt and money market
instruments of an issuer that does not have any outstanding rated debt or money market
instruments in case of ‘actual default’ of either the interest or principal amount.
Process for creation of segregated portfolio
1. The AMC shall decide on creation of segregated portfolio on the day of credit
event, as per the process laid down below:
i. The AMC shall seek approval of Trustees, prior to creation of the segregated
portfolio.
ii. The AMC shall immediately issue a press release disclosing its intention to
segregate such debt and money market instrument and its impact on the
investors. It shall also be disclosed that the segregation shall be subject to trustee
approval. Additionally, the said press release shall be prominently disclosed on
the website of the AMC.
iii. The AMC shall ensure that till the time the Trustee approval is received, the
subscription and redemption in the scheme shall be suspended for processing
with respect to creation of units and payment on redemptions.
2. Upon receipt of approval from Trustees:

i. The segregated portfolio shall be effective from the day of credit event
ii. The AMC shall issue a press release immediately with all relevant information
pertaining to the segregated portfolio. The said information shall also be
submitted to SEBI.
iii. An e-mail or SMS should be sent to all unit holders of the concerned scheme.
iv. The NAV of both segregated and main portfolio shall be disclosed from the day of
the credit event.
v. All existing investors in the scheme as on the day of the credit event shall be
allotted equal number of units in the segregated portfolio as held in the main
portfolio.
vi. 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 enable listing of units of segregated portfolio on the recognized stock
exchange within 10 working days of creation of segregated portfolio and also
enable transfer of such units on receipt of transfer requests.
3. If the trustees do not approve the proposal to segregate portfolio, the AMC shall issue
a press release immediately informing investors of the same.
4. Notwithstanding the decision to segregate the debt and money market instrument, the
valuation shall take into account the credit event and the portfolio shall be valued
based on the principles of fair valuation (i.e. realizable value of the assets) in
terms of the relevant provisions of SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996 and
Circular(s) issued thereunder.
5. All subscription and redemption requests for which NAV of the day of credit event or
subsequent day is applicable will be processed as per the existing circular on
applicability of NAV as under:
a. Upon trustees’ approval to create a segregated portfolio -
i. Investors redeeming their units will get redemption proceeds based on the
NAV of main portfolio and will continue to hold the units of segregated
portfolio.
ii. Investors subscribing to the scheme will be allotted units only in the main
portfolio based on its NAV.
b. In case trustees do not approve the proposal of segregated portfolio, subscription
and redemption applications will be processed based on the NAV of total
portfolio.
6. In order to enable the existing as well as the prospective investors to take informed
decision, the following shall be adhered to:
a. A statement of holding indicating the units held by the investors in the segregated
portfolio along with the NAV of both segregated portfolio and main portfolio as on
the day of the credit event shall be communicated to the investors within 5
working days of creation of the segregated portfolio.
b. Adequate disclosure of the segregated portfolio shall appear in all scheme related
documents, in monthly and half-yearly portfolio disclosures and in the annual
report of the mutual fund and the scheme.
c. The Net Asset Value (NAV) of the segregated portfolio shall be declared on daily
basis.
d. The information regarding number of segregated portfolios created in a scheme
shall appear prominently under the name of the scheme at all relevant places

such as SID, KIM-cum-Application Form, advertisement, AMC and AMFI websites,
etc.
e. The scheme performance required to be disclosed at various places shall include
the impact of creation of segregated portfolio. The scheme performance should
clearly reflect the fall in NAV to the extent of the portfolio segregated due to the
credit event and the said fall in NAV along with recovery(ies), if any, shall be
disclosed as a footnote to the scheme performance.
f. The disclosures at paragraph (d) and (e) above regarding the segregated portfolio
shall be carried out for a period of at least 3 years after the investments in
segregated portfolio are fully recovered/ written-off.
g. The investors of the segregated portfolio shall be duly informed of the recovery
proceedings of the investments of the segregated portfolio. Status update may be

However, TER (excluding the investment and advisory fees) can be charged, on a
pro-rata basis only upon recovery of the investments in segregated portfolio.
b. The TER so levied shall not exceed the simple average of such expenses
(excluding the investment and advisory fees) charged on daily basis on the main
portfolio (in % terms) during the period for which the segregated portfolio was in
existence.
c. The legal charges related to recovery of the investments of the segregated
portfolio may be charged to the segregated portfolio in proportion to the amount
of recovery. However, the same shall be within the maximum TER limit as
applicable to the main portfolio. The legal charges in excess of the TER limits, if
any, shall be borne by the AMC.
d. The costs related to segregated portfolio shall in no case be charged to the main
portfolio.
Investors may also note that the process followed by the AMC/Trust regarding creation
of segregated portfolios shall be in accordance with the provisions laid down by SEBI in
this regard, from time to time.

redemption proceeds based on NAV of main portfolio and will continue to hold units
in Segregated portfolio.
 No redemption and / or subscription shall be allowed in the Segregated Portfolio.
 Units of Segregated portfolio shall be listed on a recognised stock exchange.
In order to ensure timely recovery of investments of the segregated portfolio, trustees

shall ensure that:
a. The AMC puts in sincere efforts to recover the investments of the segregated
portfolio.
b. Upon recovery of money, whether partial or full, it shall be immediately
distributed to the investors in proportion to their holding in the segregated
portfolio. Any recovery of amount of the security in the segregated portfolio even
after the write off shall be distributed to the investors of the segregated portfolio.
c. An Action Taken Report (ATR) on the efforts made by the AMC to recover the

d. The trustees shall monitor the compliance of this circular and disclose in the half-
yearly trustee reports filed with SEBI, the compliance in respect of every
segregated portfolio created.
In order to avoid mis-use of segregated portfolio, trustees shall ensure to have a

mechanism in place to negatively impact the performance incentives of Fund Managers,
Chief Investment Officers (CIOs), etc. involved in the investment process of securities
under the segregated portfolio, mirroring the existing mechanism for performance
incentives of the AMC, including claw back of such amount to the segregated portfolio of
the scheme.
Investment by the AMC
From time to time and subject to the regulations, the sponsors, the mutual funds and
investment Companies managed by them, their affiliates, their associate companies,
subsidiaries of the sponsors and the AMC may invest in either directly or indirectly in the
Scheme. The funds managed by these affiliates, associates and/ or the AMC may acquire
a substantial portion of the Scheme. Accordingly, redemption of units held by such
funds, affiliates/associates and sponsors may have an adverse impact on the units of the
Scheme because the timing of such redemption may impact the ability of other unit
holders to redeem their units. Further, as per the regulation, in case the AMC invests in
any of the schemes managed by it, it shall not be entitled to charge any fees on such
investments.
The Scheme may invest in other schemes managed by the AMC or in the schemes of
any other Mutual Funds, provided it is in conformity to the investment objective of the
Scheme and in terms of the prevailing Regulations. As per the Regulations, no
investment management fees will be charged for such investments.
Procedure followed for Investment decisions

www.icicipruamc.com
DERIVATIVES
The Scheme intends to use derivatives for purposes that may be permitted by SEBI
Mutual Fund Regulations from time to time. Derivatives instruments may take the form of
Futures, Options, Swaps or any other instrument, as may be permitted from time to time.
SEBI has vide its Circular DNPD/Cir-29/2005 dated September 14, 2005 and DNPD/Cir-
29/2005 dated January 20, 2006 and CIR/IMD/DF/11/2010 dated August 18, 2010 and
SEBI/HO/IMD/DF2/CIR/P/2017/109 dated September 27, 2017 specified the guidelines
pertaining to trading by Mutual Fund in Exchange trades derivatives. All Derivative
positions taken in the portfolio would be guided by the following principles:
i. Position limit for the Fund in index options contracts

a. The Fund position limit in all index options contracts on a particular
underlying index shall be Rs. 500 crore or 15% of the total open interest of the
market in index options, whichever is higher per Stock Exchange.
b. This limit would be applicable on open positions in all options contracts on a
particular underlying index.
ii. Position limit for the Fund in index futures contracts:

a. The Fund position limit in all index futures contracts on a particular underlying
index shall be Rs. 500 crore or 15% of the total open interest of the market in
index futures, whichever is higher, per Stock Exchange.
b. This limit would be applicable on open positions in all futures contracts on a
particular underlying index.
iii. Additional position limit for hedging

In addition to the position limits at point (i) and (ii) above, Fund may take
exposure in equity index derivatives subject to the following limits:
a. Short positions in index derivatives (short futures, short calls and long puts)
shall not exceed (in notional value) the Fund’s holding of stocks.
b. Long positions in index derivatives (long futures, long calls and short puts)
shall not exceed (in notional value) the Fund’s holding of cash, government
securities, T-Bills and similar instruments.

iv. Position limit for the Fund for stock based derivative contracts
The Fund position limit in a derivative contract on a particular underlying stock,
i.e. stock option contracts and stock futures contracts, :-
a. The combined futures and options limit shall be 20% of applicable Market
Wide Position Limit (MWPL)
b. The MWPL and client level position limits however would remain the same
as prescribed
v. Position limit for the Scheme

The position limits for the Scheme and disclosure requirements are as follows–
a. For stock option and stock futures contracts, the gross open position across
all derivative contracts on a particular underlying stock of a scheme of a Fund
shall not exceed the higher
of:
1% of the free float market capitalisation (in terms of number of shares).
Or
5% of the open interest in the derivative contracts on a particular underlying
stock (in terms of number of contracts).
b. This position limit shall be applicable on the combined position in all
derivative contracts on an underlying stock at a Stock Exchange.
c. For index based contracts, the Fund shall disclose the total open interest held
by its scheme or all schemes put together in a particular underlying index, if
such open interest equals to or exceeds 15% of the open interest of all
derivative contracts on that underlying index.”
Illustration of some derivative transactions
i) Index Futures:
Benefits
a) Investment in Stock Index Futures can give exposure to the index without directly
buying the individual stocks. Appreciation in Index stocks can be effectively captured
through investment in Stock Index Futures.
b) The Scheme can sell futures to hedge against market movements effectively without
actually selling the stocks it holds.
The Stock Index futures are instruments designed to give exposure to the equity market
indices. BSE Limited and National Stock Exchange of India Limited have started trading
in index futures of 1, 2 and 3-month maturities. The pricing of an index future is the
function of the underlying index and interest rates.
Illustration
Spot Index: 1070
1 month Nifty Future Price on day 1: 1075
Scheme buys 100 lots
Each lot has a nominal value equivalent to 200 units of the underlying index
Let us say that on the date of settlement, the future price = Closing spot price = 1085
Profits for the Scheme = (1085-1075)* 100 lots*200 = Rs. 200,000
Please note that the above example is given for illustration purposes only.
The net impact for the Scheme will be in terms of the difference between the closing
price of the index and cost price (ignoring margins for the sake of simplicity). Thus, it is
clear from the example that the profit or loss for the Scheme will be the difference of the
closing price (which can be higher or lower than the purchase price) and the purchase
price. The risks associated with index futures are similar to the one with equity
investments. Additional risks could be on account of illiquidity and hence mispricing of
the future at the time of purchase.
Basic Structure of a Stock & Index Future

The Stock Index futures are instruments designed to give exposure to the equity markets
indices.
BSE Limited (BSE) and National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSE) provide futures in
select stocks and indices with maturities of 1, 2 and 3 months. The pricing of a
stock/index future is the function of the underlying stock/index and short term interest
rates.
Example using hypothetical figure

1 month NIFTY 50 Index Future
Say, Fund buys 1,000 futures contracts; each contract value is 50 times futures index
price
Purchase Date: December 27, 2017
Spot Index: 6036.25
Future Price: 6081.90
Say, Date of Expiry: January 27, 2018
Say, Margin: 20%
Assuming the exchange imposes total margin of 20%, the Investment Manager will be
required to provide total margin of approx. Rs. 6.08 Cr (i.e.20% * 6081.90 * 1000 * 50)
through eligible securities and cash.
Date of Expiry
Assuming on the date of expiry, i.e. Jan 27, 2018, Nifty 50 Index closes at 6100, the net
impact will be a profit of Rs 9,05,000 for the fund i.e. (6100–6081.90)*1000*50
Futures price = Closing spot price = 6100.00
Profits for the Fund = (6100–6081.90)*1000*50 = Rs. 9,05,000
Please note that the above example is given for illustration purposes only. Some
assumptions have been made for the sake of simplicity.
The net impact for the Fund will be in terms of the difference of the closing price of the
index and cost price. Thus, it is clear from the example that the profit or loss for the Fund
will be the difference of the closing price (which can be higher or lower than the
purchase price) and the purchase price. The risks associated with index futures are
similar to those associated with equity investments. Additional risks could be on account
of illiquidity and potential mis–pricing of the futures.
ii) Buying Options:

Benefits of buying a call option:
Buying a call option on a stock or index gives the owner the right, but not the obligation,
to buy the underlying stock / index at the designated strike price. Here the downside
risks are limited to the premium paid to purchase the option.

Illustration
For example, if the Scheme buys a one month call option on ABC Limited at a strike of
Rs. 150, the current market price being say Rs.151. The Scheme will have to pay a
premium of say Rs. 15 to buy this call. If the stock price goes below Rs. 150 during the
tenure of the call, the Scheme avoids the loss it would have incurred had it straightaway
bought the stock instead of the call option. The Scheme gives up the premium of Rs. 15
that has to be paid in order to protect the fund from this probable downside. If the stock
goes above Rs. 150, it can exercise its right and own ABC Limited at a cost price of Rs.
150, thereby participating in the upside of the stock.
Benefits of buying a put option

Buying a put option on a stock originally held by the buyer gives him/her the right, but
not the obligation, to sell the underlying stock at the designated strike price. Here the
downside risks are limited to the premium paid to purchase the option.
Illustration
For example, if the Scheme owns ABC Limited and also buys a three month put option
on ABC Limited at a strike of Rs. 150, the current market price being say Rs.151. The
Scheme will have to pay a premium of say Rs. 12 to buy this put. If the stock price goes
below Rs. 150 during the tenure of the put, the Scheme can still exercise the put and sell
the stock at Rs. 150, avoiding therefore any downside on the stock below Rs. 150. The
Scheme gives up the fixed premium of Rs. 12 that has to be paid in order to protect the
Scheme from this probable downside. If the stock goes above Rs. 150, say to Rs. 170, it
will not exercise its option. The Scheme will participate in the upside of the stock, since it
can now sell the stock at the prevailing market price of Rs. 170.
The following section describes some of the more common equity derivatives
transactions long with their benefits:
Basic Structure of an Equity Option
An option gives a buyer the right but does not cast the obligation to buy or sell the
underlying. An option is a contract between two parties wherein the buyer receives a
privilege for which he pays a fee (premium) and the seller accepts an obligation for
which he receives a fee. The premium is the price negotiated and set when the option is
bought or sold. A person who buys an option is said to be long in the option. A person
who sells (or writes) an option is said to be short in the option.
In India, National Stock Exchange (NSE) became the first exchange to launch trading in
options on individual securities. Trading in options on individual securities commenced
from July 2, 2001. All stock/index Option contracts are European style (w.e.f. January
2011) and cash settled as stipulated by the Securities and Exchange Board of India
(SEBI).
Example using hypothetical figures on Index Options:

Market type: N
Instrument Type: OPTIDX
Underlying: Nifty
Purchase date: Dec 27, 2017
Expiry date: January 27, 2018
Option Type: Put Option (Purchased)
Strike Price: Rs. 6,000.00
Spot Price: Rs. 6036.00
Premium: Rs. 84.00
Lot Size: 50
No. of Contracts: 100
Say, the Fund purchases on December 27, 2017, 1 month Put Options on Nifty on the
NSE i.e. put options on 5000 shares (100 contracts of 50 shares each) of Nifty.
Date of Exercise
As these are European style options, they can be exercised only on the exercise date i.e.
January 27, 2018. If the share price of Nifty falls to Rs.5,500 on expiry day, the net impact
will be as follows:
Premium expense = Rs.84*100* 50 Rs. 4,20,000
Option Exercised at = Rs. 5,500
Profits for the Fund = (6000.00–5,500.00) * 100*50 = Rs. 25,00,000
Net Profit = Rs. 25,00,000 – Rs. 4,20,000 = Rs. 20,80,000
In the above example, the Investment Manager hedged the market risk on 5000 shares of
Nifty Index by purchasing Put Options.
assumptions have been made for the sake of simplicity. Certain factors like margins have
been ignored. The purchase of Put Options does not increase the market risk in the fund
as the risk is already in the fund's portfolio on account of the underlying asset position.
The premium paid for the option is treated as an expense. Additional risks could be on
account of illiquidity and potential mis–pricing of the options.
The fund will use derivatives instruments for the purpose hedging or portfolio
rebalancing or for any other stock and / or index derivative strategies as allowed under
the SEBI regulations.
Example of Hedging using Index Futures

The scheme holds stock at current market price of Rs. 100. To hedge the exposure, the
scheme will sell index futures for Rs. 100.
The stock will make a gain or a loss subject to its relative out-performance or
underperformance of the markets.
Stock A falls by 10% and market index also falls by 10%.
Profit/(Loss) on stock A will be = (Rs. 10)
Profit/(Loss) on Short Nifty futures = Rs. 10
Net Profit/(loss) = Nil
Therefore, hedging allows the scheme to protect against market falls.
Please note that the above examples are only for illustration purposes.
Various Derivatives Strategies:
If and where Derivative strategies are used under the scheme the Fund Manager will
employ a combination of the following strategies:
1. Index Arbitrage:
As the Nifty 50 Index derives its value from fifty underlying stocks, the underlying stocks
can be used to create a synthetic index matching the Nifty Index levels. Also,
theoretically, the fair value of a stock/ index futures is equal to the spot price plus the
cost of carry i.e. the interest rate prevailing for an equivalent credit risk, in this case is the
Clearing Corporation of the NSE.
Theoretically, therefore, the pricing of Nifty Index futures should be equal to the pricing
of the synthetic index created by futures on the underlying stocks. However, due to
market imperfections, the index futures may not exactly correspond to the synthetic
index futures.
The Nifty Index futures normally trades at a discount to the synthetic Index due to large
volumes of stock hedging being done using the Nifty Index futures giving rise to
arbitrage opportunities.
The fund manager shall aim to capture such arbitrage opportunities by taking long
positions in the Nifty Index futures and short positions in the synthetic index. The
strategy is attractive if this price differential (post all costs) is higher than the investor’s
cost-of-capital.
Objective of the Strategy

The objective of the strategy is to lock-in the arbitrage gains.
Risks Associated with this Strategy

 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:
Execution Risk: The prices which are seen on the screen need not be the same at which
execution will take place.
2. Cash Futures Arbitrage: (Only one way as funds are not allowed to short in the cash
market).
The Scheme would look for market opportunities between the spot and the futures
market. The cash futures arbitrage strategy can be employed when the price of the
futures exceeds the price of the underlying stock.
The Scheme will first buy the stocks in cash market and then sell in the futures market to
lock the spread known as arbitrage return.
Buying the stock in cash market and selling the futures results into a hedge where the
Plans have locked in a spread and is not affected by the price movement of cash market
and futures market. The arbitrage position can be continued till expiry of the future
contracts. The future contracts are settled based on the last half an hour’s weighted
average trade of the cash market. Thus there is a convergence between the cash market
and the futures market on expiry. This convergence helps the Plans under the Scheme to
generate the arbitrage return locked in earlier. However, the position could even be

closed earlier in case the price differential is realized before expiry or better opportunities
are available in other stocks. The strategy is attractive if this price differential (post all
costs) is higher than the investor’s cost-of-capital.

The objective of the strategy is to lock-in the arbitrage gains.
Risk Associated with this Strategy

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
execution will take place
3. Hedging and alpha strategy: The fund will use exchange-traded derivatives to hedge
the equity portfolio. The hedging could be either partial or complete depending upon
the fund managers’ perception of the markets. The fund manager shall either use
index futures and options or stock futures and options to hedge the stocks in the
portfolio. The fund will seek to generate alpha by superior stock selection and
removing market risks by selling appropriate index. For example, one can seek to
generate positive alpha by buying an IT stock and selling Nifty IT Index future or a
bank stock and selling Bank Index futures or buying a stock and selling the Nifty
Index.

The objective of the strategy is to generate alpha by superior stock selection and
removing market risks by hedging with appropriate index.

 The stock selection under this strategy may under-perform the market and generate a
negative alpha.
 The risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the inability of derivatives to
 Execution Risk: The prices which are seen on the screen need not be the same at
which execution will take place.
3. Other Derivative Strategies: As allowed under the SEBI guidelines on derivatives, the
fund manager will employ various other stock and index derivative strategies by buying
or selling stock/index futures and/or options.

The objective of the strategy is to earn low volatility consistent returns.

The risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the inability of derivatives to correlate
perfectly with underlying assets, rates and indices
execution will take place.

Covered Call Strategy
A call option gives the holder (buyer) the right but not the obligation to buy an asset by a
certain date for a certain price. The covered call is a strategy in which a seller sells a call
option on a stock he owns.
Benefits of using Covered Call strategy in Mutual Funds:
The covered call strategy can be followed by the Fund Manager in order to hedge risk
thereby resulting in better risk adjusted returns of the Scheme. The strategy offers the
following benefits:
a. Hedge against market risk - Since the fund manager sells a call option on a stock
already owned by the mutual fund scheme, the downside from fall in the stock price
would be lower to the extent of the premium earned from the call option.
b. Generating additional returns in the form of option premium in a range bound
market.
Thus, a covered call strategy involves gains for unit holders in case the strategy plays out
in the right direction.
Illustration – Covered Call strategy using stock call options:
Suppose, a fund manager buys equity stock of ABC Ltd. For Rs. 1000 and simultaneously
sells a call option on the same stock at a strike price of Rs. 1100. The scheme earns a
premium of say, Rs. 50. Here, the fund manager does not think that the stock price will
exceed Rs. 1100.
Scenario 1: Stock price exceeds Rs. 1100
The call option will get exercised and the fund manager will sell the stock to settle his
obligation on the call at Rs. 1100 (earning a return of 10% on the stock purchase price).
Also, the scheme has earned a premium of Rs. 50 which reduced the purchase cost of
the stock (Rs. 1000 – Rs. 50 = Rs. 950).
Net Gain – Rs. 150
Scenario 2: Stock prices stays below Rs. 1100
The call option will not get exercised and will expire worthless. The premium earned on
call option will generate alpha for the scheme.
Net Gain – Rs. 50.
Risks for writing covered call options for equity shares
1. Writing call options are highly specialized activities and entail higher than ordinary
investment risks. In such investment strategy, the profits from call option writing is
capped at the option premium, however the downside depends upon the increase in
value of the underlying equity shares.
2. The Scheme may write covered call option only in case it has adequate number of
underlying equity shares as per regulatory requirement. This would lead to setting
aside a portion of investment in underlying equity shares. If covered call options are
sold to the maximum extent allowed by regulatory authority, the scheme may not be
able to sell the underlying equity shares immediately if the view changes to sell and
exit the stock. The covered call options need to be unwound before the stock
positions can be liquidated. This may lead to a loss of opportunity, or can cause exit

issues if the strike price at which the call option contracts have been written become
illiquid. Hence, the scheme may not be able to sell the underlying equity shares,
which can lead to temporary illiquidity of the underlying equity shares and result in
loss of opportunity.
3. The writing of covered call option would lead to loss of opportunity due to
appreciation in value of the underlying equity shares. Hence, when the appreciation in
equity share price is more than the option premium received the scheme would be at
a loss.
4. The total gross exposure related to option premium paid and received must not
exceed the regulatory limits of the net assets of the scheme. This may restrict the
ability of Scheme to buy any options.

Debt Derivatives
The Scheme may use derivatives instruments like Interest Rate Swaps, Forward Rate
Agreements or such other derivative instruments as may be introduced from time to
time for the purpose that may be permitted by SEBI Mutual Fund Regulations from time
to time.
Interest rate swap is a strategy in which one party exchanges a stream of interest for
another party's stream. Interest rate swaps are normally 'fixed against floating', but can
also be 'fixed against fixed' or 'floating against floating' rate swaps. Interest rate swaps
will be used to take advantage of interest-rate fluctuations, by swapping fixed-rate
obligations for floating rate obligations, or swapping floating rate obligations to fixed-rate
obligations.
i) Advantages of Derivatives
The volatility in Indian debt markets has increased over last few months. Derivatives
provide unique flexibility to the Scheme to hedge part of their portfolio. Some of the
advantages of specific derivatives are as under:
ii) Interest Rate Swaps and Forward rate Agreements

Bond markets in India are not very liquid. Investors run the risk of illiquidity in such
markets.
Investing for short-term periods for liquidity purposes has its own risks. Investors can
benefit if the Fund remains in call market for the liquidity and at the same time take
advantage of fixed rates by entering into a swap. It adds certainty to the returns without
sacrificing liquidity.
The following is an illustration how derivatives work

Basic Details: Fixed to floating swap
Notional Amount: Rs. 5 Crores
Benchmark: NSE MIBOR
Deal Tenor: 3 months (say 91 days)
Documentation: International Securities Dealers Association (ISDA).
Let us assume the fixed rate decided was 10%
At the end of three months, the following exchange will take place:
Counter party 1 pays: compounded call rate for three months, say 9.90%
Counter party 2 pays fixed rate: 10%
In practice, however, the difference of the two amounts is settled. Counter party 2 will
pay Rs. 5 Crores *0.10%* 91/365 = Rs. 12,465.75
Thus the trade off for the Fund will be the difference in call rate and the fixed rate
payment and this can vary with the call rates in the market. Please note that the above
example is given for illustration purposes only and the actual returns may vary
depending on the terms of swap and market conditions.
Risk Factor: The risk arising out of uses of the above derivative strategy as under:
 Lack of opportunities 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.
assumptions have been made for the sake of simplicity. Additional risks could be on
account of illiquidity and potential mis–pricing of the options.
iii) Interest Rate Futures:
IRF means a standardized interest rate derivative contract traded on a recognized stock
exchange to buy or sell a notional security or any other interest bearing instrument or an

index of such instruments or interest rates at a specified future date, at a price
determined at the time of the contract.
Hedging using interest rate futures could be perfect or imperfect, subject to applicable
regulations.
Currently, exchange traded Interest Rate Futures traded on exchange are standardized
contracts based on 10-Year Government of India Security and 91 day Treasury bill. IRF
contracts are cash settled.
IRFs give an opportunity in the fixed income market to hedge interest rate risk or
rebalance the portfolio by using them. By locking into a price, the IRF contract can help
to eliminate the interest rate risk. Thus, in order to protect against a fall in the value of the
portfolio due to falling bond prices, one can take short position in IRF contracts.
Example:
Date: April 01, 2018

Spot price of the Government Security: Rs.108.83
Price of IRF– April contract: Rs. 108.90
On April 01, 2018, Fund buys 1000 units of the Government security from the spot
market at Rs. 108.83. Subsequently, it is anticipated that the interest rate will rise in the
near future. Therefore to hedge the exposure in underlying Government security, Fund
sells April 2018 Interest Rate Futures contracts at Rs. 108.90.
On April 15, 2018 due to increase in interest rate:
Spot price of the Government Security: Rs. 107.24

Futures Price of IRF Contract: Rs.107.30
Loss in underlying market will be (107.24 – 108.83)*1000 = (Rs. 1,590)

Profit in the Futures market will be (107.30 – 108.90)*1000 = Rs. 1,600
Illustration for Imperfect Hedging
Scenario 1 and 2
Assumption: Portfolio whose duration is 3 years, is being hedged with an IRF whose
underlying securities duration is 10 years
Portfolio Duration: 3 year
Market Value of Portfolio: Rs 100 cr
Imperfect Hedging cannot exceed 20% of Portfolio
Maximum extent of short position that may be taken in IRFs is as per below mentioned
formula:
Portfolio (security) Modified Duration * Market Value of Portfolio (security) / (Futures
Modified Duration * Futures Price/PAR)
Consider that we choose to hedge 20% of portfolio

(3 * (0.2 * 100))/(10 * 100/100) = Rs 6 cr
So we must Sell Rs 6 cr of IRF with underlying duration of 10 years to hedge Rs 20 cr of

Portfolio with duration of 3 years.
Scenario 1
If the yield curve moves in a way that the 3 year moves up by 10 bps and the 10 year
moves up by 5bps, which means that the short end has moved up more than the long

end
Amount of Security in Portfolio (LONG): Rs 20cr

If yields move up buy 10 bps then the price of the security with a modified duration of 3
years will move down by;
Formula: (Yield movement * Duration) * Portfolio Value
((0.001 * 3) * 20,00,00,000)= - 6,00,000
Underlying IRF (SHORT): Rs 6crs

If yields move up buy 5bps then the price of the security with a duration of 10 years will
move down by;
(-0.0005*10) * 6,00,00,000 = 3,00,000
Since we have sold the IRF, this movement is positive and hence the total loss will be
reduced to:
-6,00,000 + 3,00,000= -3,00,000
Due to IRF, the overall impact on the portfolio due to interest rate movement has been
reduced.
Scenario 2
If the yield curve moves in a way that the 3 year does not move and the 10 year moves
down by 5 bps, which means that the yield curve has flattened.
If yield does not move then the price of the security with a duration of 3 years will remain
flat:
(0*3) * 20,00,00,000 = 0
Underlying IRF (SHORT): Rs 6cr
If yields moves down by 5bps then the price of the security with a duration of 10 years
will move up by;
(0.0005*10) * 6,00,00,000 = -3,00,000
In this scenario, the imperfect hedge created on the portfolio would create a loss on the
total position.
Valuation of Derivative Products

i. The traded derivatives shall be valued at market price in conformity with the
valuation policy of the Mutual Fund.
ii. The valuation of untraded derivatives shall be done in accordance with the valuation
method for untraded investments prescribed in sub clauses (i) and (ii) of clause 2 of
the Eighth Schedule to the SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996 as amended from
time to time.

I. What are the Investment Restrictions?
Pursuant to the Regulations and amendments thereto and subject to the investment
pattern of the Scheme, following investment restrictions are presently applicable to the
Scheme:
1. A mutual fund scheme shall not invest more than 10% of its NAV in debt
instruments comprising money market instruments and non-money market
instruments issued by a single issuer which are rated not below investment grade by
a credit rating agency authorised to carry out such activity under the Act. Such
investment limit may be extended to 12% of the NAV of the scheme with the prior
approval of the Board of Trustees and the Board of directors of the asset
management company:
Provided that such limit shall not be applicable for investments in Government
Securities, treasury bills and TREPs:
Provided further that investment within such limit can be made in mortgaged backed
securitised debt which are rated not below investment grade by a credit rating
agency registered with the Board.
2. Mutual fund schemes shall not invest in unlisted debt instruments including
commercial papers (CPs), other than (a) government securities, (b) other money
market instruments and (c) derivative products such as Interest Rate Swaps (IRS),
Interest Rate Futures (IRF), etc. which are used by mutual funds for hedging.
However, mutual fund schemes may invest in unlisted Non-Convertible Debentures

(NCDs) not exceeding 10% of the debt portfolio, as per respective investment limits
and timelines mentioned in Circular dated October 1, 2019, of the debt portfolio of the
scheme subject to the condition that such unlisted NCDs have a simple structure (i.e.
with fixed and uniform coupon, fixed maturity period, without any options, fully paid
up upfront, without any credit enhancements or structured obligations) and are rated
and secured with coupon payment frequency on monthly basis.
For the above purposes, listed debt instruments shall include listed and to be listed
debt instruments.
3. The Scheme shall not invest more than 5% of its net assets in unrated debt and
money market instruments, other than government securities, treasury bills,
derivative products such as Interest Rate Swaps (IRS), Interest Rate Futures (IRF),
etc. All such investments shall be made with the prior approval of the Board of
Trustees and the Board of AMC.
Investments should only be made in such instruments, including bills re-discounting,

usance bills, etc., that are generally not rated and for which separate investment
norms or limits are not provided in SEBI (Mutual Fund) Regulations, 1996 and various
circulars issued thereunder.
4. The Fund under all its Schemes shall not own more than 10% of any company’s
paid up capital carrying voting rights.
Provided, investment in the asset management company or the trustee company of a
mutual fund shall be governed by clause (a), of sub-regulation (1), of regulation 7B
5. The investment of mutual fund schemes in the following instruments shall not
exceed 10% of the debt portfolio of the schemes and the group exposure in such
instruments shall not exceed 5% of the debt portfolio of the schemes
a. Unsupported rating of debt instruments (i.e. without factoring-in credit
enhancements) is below investment grade and
b. Supported rating of debt instruments (i.e. after factoring-in credit enhancement) is
above investment grade.
For the purpose of this provision, ‘Group’ shall have the same meaning as defined in
paragraph B(3)(b) of SEBI Circular No. SEBI/HO/IMD/DF2/CIR/P/2016/35 dated
February 15, 2016.
Investment limits as mentioned above shall not be applicable on investments in

securitized debt instruments, as defined in SEBI (Public Offer and Listing of
Securitized Debt Instruments) Regulations 2008.
Investment in debt instruments, having credit enhancements backed by equity

shares directly or indirectly, shall have a minimum cover of 4 times considering the
market value of such shares. AMCs may ensure that the investment in debt
instruments having credit enhancements are sufficiently covered to address the
market volatility and reduce the inefficiencies of invoking of the pledge or cover,
whenever required, without impacting the interest of the investors. In case of fall in
the value of the cover below the specified limit, AMCs should initiate necessary
steps to ensure protection of the interest of the investors.
6. Transfer of investments from one Scheme to another Scheme in the same Mutual
Fund is permitted provided:
 Such transfers are done at the prevailing market price for quoted instruments on
spot basis (spot basis shall have the same meaning as specified by a Stock
Exchange for spot transactions); and
 The securities so transferred shall be in conformity with the investment objective
of the Scheme to which such transfer has been made.
Further the inter Scheme transfer of investments shall be in accordance with the
provisions contained in clause Inter-Scheme transfer of investments, contained in
Statement of Additional Information.
7. The Scheme may invest in other Schemes under the same AMC or any other Mutual
Fund without charging any fees, provided the aggregate inter-Scheme investment

limits subject to the following
a. Hedging positions are the derivative positions that reduce possible losses
on an existing position in securities and till the existing position remains.

b. Hedging positions cannot be taken for existing derivative positions.
Exposure due to such positions shall have to be added and treated under
limits mentioned in Point 1.
c. Any derivative instrument used to hedge has the same underlying security
as the existing position being hedged.
d. The quantity of underlying associated with the derivative position taken for
hedging purposes does not exceed the quantity of the existing position
against which hedge has been taken
5) Mutual Funds may enter into interest rate swaps for hedging purposes. The
counterparty in such transactions has to be an entity recognized as a market
maker by RBI. Further, the value of the notional principal in such cases must not
exceed the value of respective existing assets being hedged by the scheme.

Exposure limit for participating in Interest Rate Futures
In addition to the existing provisions of SEBI circular No.IMD/DF/11/2010 dated August

18, 2010, the following are prescribed:
i. To reduce interest rate risk in a debt portfolio, mutual funds may hedge the portfolio or
part of the portfolio (including one or more securities) on weighted average modified
duration basis by using Interest Rate Futures (IRFs). The maximum extent of short
position that may be taken in IRFs to hedge interest rate risk of the portfolio or part of the
portfolio, is as per the formula given below:
(Portfolio Modified Duration * Market Value of the Portfolio)

(Futures Modified Duration * Future Price/ PAR)
ii. In case the IRF used for hedging the interest rate risk has different underlying
security(s) than the existing position being hedged, it would result in imperfect hedging.
iii. Imperfect hedging using IRFs may be considered to be exempted from the gross
exposure, upto maximum of 20% of the net assets of the scheme, subject to the
following:
a) Exposure to IRFs is created only for hedging the interest rate risk based on the
weighted average modified duration of the bond portfolio or part of the portfolio.

b) Mutual Funds are permitted to resort to imperfect hedging, without it being considered
under the gross exposure limits, if and only if, the correlation between the portfolio or
part of the portfolio (excluding the hedged portions, if any) and the IRF is atleast 0.9 at
the time of initiation of hedge. In case of any subsequent deviation from the correlation
criteria, the same may be rebalanced within 5 working days and if not rebalanced within
the timeline, the derivative positions created for hedging shall be considered under the
gross exposure computed in terms of Para 3 of SEBI circular dated August 18, 2010. The
correlation should be calculated for a period of last 90 days.
Explanation: If the fund manager intends to do imperfect hedging upto 15% of the
portfolio using IRFs on weighted average modified duration basis, either of the following
conditions need to be complied with:
i. The correlation for past 90 days between the portfolio and the IRF is at least 0.9 or
ii. The correlation for past 90 days between the part of the portfolio (excluding the
hedged portions, if any) i.e. at least 15% of the net asset of the scheme (including one or
more securities) and the IRF is at least 0.9.
c) At no point of time, the net modified duration of part of the portfolio being hedged
should be negative.
d) The portion of imperfect hedging in excess of 20% of the net assets of the scheme
should be considered as creating exposure and shall be included in the computation of
gross exposure in terms of Para 3 of SEBI circular dated August 18, 2010.
iv. The basic characteristics of the scheme should not be affected by hedging the
portfolio or part of the portfolio (including one or more securities) based on the weighted
average modified duration.
Explanation: In case of long term bond fund, after hedging the portfolio based on the
modified duration of the portfolio, the net modified duration should not be less than the
minimum modified duration of the portfolio as required to consider the fund as a long
term bond fund.
v. The interest rate hedging of the portfolio should be in the interest of the investors.
21. Mutual Fund schemes (excluding ETFs and Index funds) can write Call options under a
covered strategy for constituent stocks of NIFTY 50 and BSE SENSEX subject to the
following:
a) The total notional value (taking into account strike price as well as premium value) of
call options written by a scheme shall not exceed 15% of the total market value of
equity shares held in that scheme.
b) The total number of shares underlying the call options written shall not exceed 30%
of the unencumbered shares of a particular company held in the scheme. The
unencumbered shares in a scheme shall mean shares that are not part of Securities
Lending and Borrowing Mechanism (SLBM), margin or any other kind of
encumbrances.
c) At all points of time the Mutual Fund scheme shall comply with the provisions at
points (a) and (b) above. In case of any passive breach of the requirement at
paragraph (a) above, the respective scheme shall have 7 trading days to rebalance
the portfolio. During the rebalancing period, no additional call options can be written
in the said scheme.
d) In case a Mutual Fund scheme needs to sell securities on which a call option is
written under a covered call strategy, it must ensure compliance with paragraphs (a)
and (b) above while selling the securities.
e) In no case, a scheme shall write a call option without holding the underlying equity
shares. A call option can be written only on shares which are not hedged using other
derivative contracts.
f) The premium received shall be within the requirements prescribed in terms of SEBI
circular dated August 18, 2010 i.e. the total gross exposure related to option
premium paid and received must not exceed 20% of the net assets of the scheme.
g) The exposure on account of the call option written under the covered call strategy
shall not be considered as exposure in terms of paragraph 3 of SEBI Circular no.
Cir/IMD/DF/11/2010, dated August 18, 2010.
h) The call option written shall be marked to market daily and the respective gains or
losses factored into the daily NAV of the respective scheme(s) until the position is
closed or expired.
22. The Scheme will comply with any other Regulation applicable to the investments of
mutual funds from time to time.
23. A mutual fund may invest in the units of REITs and InvITs subject to the following:
a. No mutual fund under all its schemes shall own more than 10% of units issued by a
single issuer of REIT and InvIT; and
b. A mutual fund scheme shall not invest-
i. more than 10% of its NAV in the units of REIT and InvIT; and
ii. more than 5% of its NAV in the units of REIT and InvIT issued by a single
issuer.
Provided that the limits mentioned in sub-clauses (i) and (ii) above shall not be applicable
for investments in case of index fund or sector or industry specific scheme pertaining to
REIT and InvIT.
The Trustee may alter the above restrictions from time to time to the extent that changes
in the Regulations may allow or as deemed fit in the general interest of the unit holders.
All investment restrictions shall be applicable at the time of making investment.
The Trustee /AMC may alter the above stated limitations from time to time, and also to the
extent the SEBI (MF) Regulations change, so as to permit the Scheme to make their
investments in the full spectrum of permitted investments in order to achieve their
investment objective.

structure applicable when investor had invested in the

Example: An investor invests on April 1, 2017 when the

applicable exit load for the scheme was 2% if redeemed
within 1 year, else nil.
Scenario 1) In case investor redeems before April 1, 2018,

then applicable exit load would be 2%. Now suppose the
same investor decides to redeem his 1000 units. The
prevailing NAV is Rs 25/-. Hence, the sale or redemption price
per unit becomes Rs. 24.50/- i.e. 25*(1-2%). The investor
therefore gets 1000 x 24.50 = Rs. 24,500/-.
Scenario 2) In case investor redeems on or after April 1, 2018,

then applicable exit load would be nil. Now suppose the same
investor decides to redeem his 1000 units. The prevailing NAV
is Rs 30/-. Hence, the sale or redemption price per unit will be
Rs. 30/- i.e. 30*(1-0). The investor therefore gets 1000 x 30 =
Rs. 30,000/-.

Scheme"). It includes a feature of a 'Reverse Transfer'
from the Transferee Scheme into the Transferor
Scheme, in order to achieve the specified Target
Investment Value [(first installment amount) X (number
of installments paid; including the current installment)]
on each transfer date in the Transferee Scheme,
subject to the terms and conditions of Value STP.

transferring an amount at regular intervals in a way that
it increases the Target Investment Value of units in the
Transferee Scheme systematically, by a fixed amount
(i.e. the first installment amount specified by the
Unitholder) on the date of each transfer for the tenure
of the Value STP. The amount to be transferred will be

transferred through VALUE STP in the
Transferee Scheme on the date of transfer)
In case the amounts (as specified above) to be
transferred are not available in the Transferor
Scheme in the unit holder's account, the
residual amount will be transferred to the

value of the investments in the Transferee Scheme
through Value STP is higher than the Target
Investment Value for that month [(first installment
amount) X (number of installments paid; including the

that month.

Dividend Policy (i) Growth Option
The Scheme will not declare any dividends under this
option. The income earned by the Scheme will remain
reinvested in the Scheme and will be reflected in the Net
Asset Value. This option is suitable for investors who are
not looking for regular income but who have invested with
the intention of capital appreciation.
(ii) Dividend Option

This option is suitable for investors seeking income
through dividend declared by the Scheme. The Trustee
may approve the distribution of dividend by AMC out of
the net surplus under this Option. The remaining net
surplus after considering the dividend and tax, if any,
payable there on will be ploughed back in the Scheme and
be reflected in the NAV.
(iii) Dividend Payout:
As per the SEBI (MF) Regulations, the Mutual Fund shall
despatch to the Unit Holders, dividend warrants within 30
days of declaration of the Dividend. Dividends will be
payable to those Unit Holders whose names appear in the
Register of Unit Holders on the date (Record Date).
Dividends will be paid by cheque, net of taxes as may be
applicable. Unit Holders will also have the option of direct
payment of dividend to the bank account. The cheques
will be drawn in the name of the sole/first holder and will
be posted to the Registered address of the sole/first holder
as indicated in the original application form. To safeguard
the interest of Unit Holders from loss or theft of dividend
cheques, investors should provide the name of their bank,
branch and account number in the application form.
Dividend cheques will be sent to the Unit Holder after
incorporating such information. The minimum amount for
dividend payout shall be Rs.100 (net of dividend
distribution tax and other statutory levy, if any), else
dividend would be mandatorily reinvested.
(iv) Dividend Reinvestment:
The investors opting for Dividend Option may choose to
reinvest the dividend to be received by them in additional
Units of the Scheme. Under this provision, the dividend
due and payable to the Unitholders will be compulsorily
and without any further act by the Unitholders reinvested
in the Scheme (under the Dividend Option, at the first ex-
dividend NAV). The dividends so reinvested shall be
constructive payment of dividends to the Unitholders and
constructive receipt of the same amount from each
Unitholder for reinvestment in Units. On reinvestment of
dividends, the number of Units to the credit of Unitholder
will increase to the extent of the dividend reinvested
dividend by the NAV applicable on the day of
reinvestment, as explained above.

Redemption of Units The Units can be redeemed (i.e. sold back to the Fund) on
every Business Day at the Redemption Price (hereinafter
defined). The redemption request can be made for a minimum
amount as mentioned in para “Highlights of the scheme”.
In case, a unit holder specifies the redemption amount as well

as number of Units for redemption, (subject to the minimum
redemption amount as mentioned above) the number of Units
specified will be considered for deciding the redemption
amount. If only the redemption amount is specified by the
Unit holder, the Fund will divide the redemption amount so
specified by the Applicable NAV based price to arrive at the
number of Units.
If a unit holder submits a redemption/switch-out request

mentioning only the name of the Scheme and folio number
but not mentioning the units and the amount for redemption,
the Fund shall assume that the redemption/switch-out request
is for all the units under the stated folio from the Scheme and
the option mentioned on the redemption/switch-out request
and shall redeem all the units.
In case an investor has purchased Units on more than one

Business Day, the Units purchased prior in time (i.e. those
Units which have been held for the longest period of time) will
be deemed to have been redeemed first i.e. on a First-in-First-
Out basis.
The redemption will be at Applicable NAV based prices,

subject to applicable exit load.
The Fund reserves the right to modify exit loads, at any time
in future, on prospective basis. In such an event, the
Redemption Price of the Units will be adjusted by using the
following formula. The maximum load (exit) under the
Scheme will not exceed the limits as prescribed under the
Regulations.
The Fund shall ensure that the Redemption Price is not lower
than 93% of the NAV and the Purchase Price is not higher
than 107% of the NAV, provided that the difference between
the Redemption Price and Purchase Price of the Units shall not
exceed the permissible limit of 7% of the Purchase Price, as
provided for under the Regulations.
Notice of the changes in the load structure (exit load) shall be

made by a suitable display in the Customer Service Centers of
the AMC and will be published in 2 daily newspapers.
Payment of proceeds
All redemption requests received prior to the cut-off time on
any Business Day at the Official Points of Acceptance of
Transactions will be considered accepted on that Business
Day, subject to the redemption requests being complete in all
respects, and will be priced on the basis of Redemption Price
for that day. Requests received after the cut-off time will be
treated as though they were accepted on the next Business
Day.
As per the Regulations, the Fund shall dispatch redemption

proceeds within 10 Business Days (working days) of receiving
the redemption request.
Trustees reserve the right to alter or modify the number of

days taken for redemption of Units under the Fund after taking
into consideration the actual settlement cycle, when
announced, as also the changes in the settlement cycles that
may be announced by the Principal Stock Exchanges from
time to time.
As per the guidelines issued by SEBI, in the event of failure to

dispatch the redemption or repurchase proceeds within 10
working days, the AMC is liable to pay interest to the Unit
holders @ 15% p.a. SEBI has further advised the mutual funds
that in the event of payment of interest to the Unit holders,
such Unit holders should be informed about the rate and the
amount of interest paid to them.
If the Unit holder fails to provide the Bank mandate, the

request for redemption would be considered as not valid and
the Fund retains the right to reject/withhold the redemption
until a proper bank mandate is furnished by the Unitholder
and the provision with respect of penal interest in such cases
will not be applicable/ entertained.
The mode of payment may be direct credit/ECS/cheque or any

other mode as may be decided by AMC in the interest of
investors.
If the investor(s)/unitholder(s) submit(s) redemption request

accompanied with request for change of Bank mandate or
submits a redemption request within 7 days from the date
submission of a request for change of Bank mandate details,
the Asset Management Company will process the redemption

Right to Limit Redemptions
Any Units, which by virtue of these limitations are not

the Business Day on which Redemption is made. Under such
circumstances, to the extent multiple Redemption requests
are received at the same time on a single Business Day,

D. COMPUTATION OF NAV
The NAV of the Units of the Scheme will be computed by dividing the net assets of the
Scheme by the number of Units outstanding on the valuation date. The Fund shall value
its investments according to the valuation norms, as specified in Schedule VIII of the
Regulations, or such norms as may be prescribed by SEBI from time to time and as
stipulated in the valuation policy and procedures of the Fund, provided in Statement of
Additional Information (SAI).
The NAV of the Scheme shall be rounded off upto two decimals
NAV of units under the Scheme shall be calculated as shown below:
Market or Fair Value of Scheme’s investments + Current Assets

- Current Liabilities and Provision
NAV (Rs.) = __________________________________________________________
No. of Units outstanding under Scheme
The NAV will be calculated as of the close of every Business Day of the respective
Scheme. The valuation of the Scheme’s assets and calculation of the Scheme’s NAV
shall be subject to audit on an annual basis and such regulations as may be prescribed
by SEBI from time to time.
Valuation of Foreign Securities (other than units of overseas mutual funds)
Foreign securities shall be valued based on the last quoted closing prices at the
Overseas Stock Exchange on which the respective securities are listed. However, the
AMC shall select the appr*opriate stock exchange at the time of launch of a scheme
in case a security is listed on more than one stock exchange and the reasons for
the selection will be recorded in writing. Any subsequent change in the reference
stock exchange used for valuation will be necessarily backed by reasons for such
change being recorded in writing by the AMC. However, in case of extreme
volatility in other markets post the closure of the relevant markets, the AMC shall
value the security at suitable fair value.
When on a particular valuation day, a security has not been traded on the selected
stock exchange; the value at which it is traded on another stock exchange or last
quoted closing price on documented stock exchange shall be used provided such
date is not more than thirty days prior to the valuation date.
Due to difference in time zones of different markets, in case the closing prices of
securities are not available within a given time frame to enable the AMC to upload
the NAV for a Valuation Day, the AMC may use the last available traded price/
previous day’s price for the purpose of valuation. The use of the closing price /
last available traded price for the purpose of valuation will also be based on the
practice followed in a particular market.
On valuation date, all assets and liabilities in foreign currency shall be valued in Indian
Rupees at the RBI reference rate as at the close of banking hours on the relevant
business day in India. If required the AMC may change the source for determining
the exchange rate.

Non-traded ADR/ GDRs shall be valued after considering prices/ issue terms of
underlying security. Valuation committee shall decide the appropriate discount for
illiquidity. Non traded foreign security shall be valued by AMC at fair value after
considering relevant factors on case to case basis.

by the Bank to the whistle blower at all times. However, the Bank had received a

Company were/ are a party. The details of the violation shall also be disclosed.

Fund, the AMC has ensured compliance with the directions issued by SEBI. Further, in
the same matter, quasi-judicial proceedings have been initiated by SEBI. The AMC had
filed an application with SEBI for settling the adjudication proceedings, without

Directors of ICICI Prudential Trust Limited (the Trustee Company) to ICICI Prudential
Asset Management Company Limited (the AMC) for declaration of dividend by the
schemes of ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund. Pursuant to completion of quasi-judicial

Company and/ or any of the directors and/ or key personnel are a party should also be
disclosed separately.
4.1 As per the SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996, mutual fund schemes are
permitted to invest in securitised debt. Accordingly, few schemes of ICICI
Prudential Mutual Fund (“the Fund”) had made investment in Pass Through
Certificates (PTCs) of certain special purpose vehicles / securitisation trusts (“the
Trusts”). The returns filed by few of these securitisation Trusts whose PTCs were
held by the Fund were taken up for scrutiny by the Income Tax Authorities for
Assessment Years 2007-08, 2008-09, 2009-10 and 2010-11. Arising out of this, the
Income Tax Authorities had raised a demand on such Trusts. On failure to recover
the same from the Trusts, Income Tax Authorities sent demand notices to the
Fund along with other Mutual Funds as beneficiaries / contributors to such Trusts.
The Fund in consultation with its tax & legal advisors has contested the
applicability of such demand and got the attachment order vacated by Hon’ble
High Court of Bombay. The Trusts on their part had contested the matter and the
Income Tax Appellate Tribunal upheld their appeal and dismissed the contentions
and all the cross-appeals filed by the Tax Authorities. The Tax Authorities have
now filed an appeal with Hon’ble High Court on the matter.
5) Any deficiency in the systems and operations of the Sponsor(s) and/ or the AMC and/ or
the Board of Trustees/Trustee Company which SEBI has specifically advised to be
disclosed in the SID, or which has been notified by any other regulatory agency, shall
be disclosed. –
