A mutual fund has a portfolio worth ₹110 lakh, liabilities of ₹10 lakh and 4 lakh units outstanding. It incurs an annual expense of ₹2 lakh, already deducted in the figures given. If the fund issues 1 lakh new units at NAV, what will be the number of units and total net assets after issue?

After the issue there are 5 lakh units and net assets of ₹125 lakh. Net assets before issue are ₹100 lakh, giving NAV ₹25 on 4 lakh units. Issuing 1 lakh units at NAV adds ₹25 lakh, and NAV stays unchanged.

  2. B5 lakh units and ₹135 lakh
  3. C5 lakh units and ₹100 lakh
  4. D4 lakh units and ₹125 lakh

Explanation

Net assets = 110 − 10 = ₹100 lakh; NAV = 100/4 = ₹25. New units 1 lakh × 25 = ₹25 lakh raised. Total units = 5 lakh and net assets = 100 + 25 = ₹125 lakh. The expense is already deducted and is not subtracted again.
