As per SEBI rules, when a mutual fund scheme's investment objective or fundamental attributes are changed, what must the AMC provide to existing unit holders?

Unit holders must be informed in writing before a change in fundamental attributes and given an exit option at the prevailing NAV without exit load. A mere newspaper notice, bonus units or an expense refund is not what the rules require.

  2. BOnly a newspaper notice, with no exit option
  3. CA bonus unit allotment of 5% of holdings
  4. DA refund of all expenses charged in the past year

Explanation

A change in fundamental attributes requires prior written communication to unit holders and an exit window at the prevailing NAV free of exit load. Newspaper notice alone is not enough, and bonus units or expense refunds are not mandated.
