The easiest way to understand this, at least for me is to forget all the names and think about how you are authenticating the mandate.
If you authenticate with UPI - Max limit is 1 lakhs right now for designated use cases (including mutual funds). If the amount is higher, for each mandate pull, UPI pin has to be entered - i.e. AFA.
If you authenticate with Netbanking/DebitCards - Max limit is 1 crore. No AFA.
We are close to making UPI mandates available - the one where the limit is Rs. 1 lakh. Currently, only eNACH is available with us. The circular you shared does not apply to eNACH.
