Exit and Expenses Ratio

Hi Friends,

I need to know couple of things. In MF, there is exit load and expenses ratio. I entered into an MF with 50k value and it is now around 75k which means 25k profit within a year.

Now, I need to know, if I exit, what will be the exit load if 1% means. Is the 1% on 25k, or 50k or 75k?

And also expenses ratio is included inside the NAV itself I believe. Please confirm these 2 points.

Hi Himalay,
I have another query somewhat related to exit load…
Let’s assume I started a SIP 25 months ago and want to redeem all now and there’s an exit load of 1% for an year, then how will this be calculated?
Should I need to redeem only 13 months value and wait for another 12 months to get rid of that exit load value and then redeem?
Thank you

The Exit load for a mutual fund is reduced from the NAV. Say, the current NAV is Rs.75/- so 1% of Rs.75 is Rs.0.75/- per unit.

When you redeem the units, the units will be redeemed at the NAV of 74.25 (75-0.75) per unit instead of the NAV of 75.

Exit load is calculated for each investment/SIP done and as per the exit load mentioned in the factsheet for the month, when the fund has been purchased.

Here is an example to understand exit loads and what happens when the AMC decides to change the exit load applicability of a scheme :

Factsheet Exit load
Jan-20 1% if redeemed before 1 year i.e 365 days from the date of allotment
Feb-20 1% if redeemed before 1 year i.e 365 days from the date of allotment
Mar-20 1% if redeemed before 1 Month i.e 31 days from the date of allotment
Apr-20 1% if redeemed before 1 Month i.e 31 days from the date of allotment
May-20 1% if redeemed before 1 Month i.e 31 days from the date of allotment

The below units that were purchased are redeemed on 5th May

Calculation/details Rs.
NAV as on 5th May 50
Amount creditable before exit load ( 50 (NAV)* 253 units) 12650
Avg NAV = Total amount/no of units 49.925
Total exit load deducted Rs.76

Below is the break down of purchase dates and exit load applicable as per the respective months factsheet.

Purchase
date
Units allotted Redemption date No of days ( age) exit load condition Exit load NAV ( post exit load deduction) Amount
( units * NAV)
1st Jan-20 50 5th May 2020 125 days if redeemed <365 days 1% 1.00% 49.5 2475
1st Feb-20 52 5th May 2020 94 days if redeemed <365 days 1% 1.00% 49.5 2574
1st Mar-20 48 5th May 2020 65 days if redeemed <31 days 1% Nil 50 2400
1st Apr-20 53 5th May 2020 34 days if redeemed <31 days 1% Nil 50 2650
1st May-20 50 5th May 2020 4 days if redeemed <31 days 1% 1.00% 49.5 2475
253 Total 253 units redeemed on May 5th 2020 Total amount credited 12574

The fact sheet is generally available on the AMC’s website. Refer to this link to know more about the read scheme related documents. You can refer to this link as well to understand more.

Yes, each individual investment that you do should cross 1 year of holding time, else the exit load will be applicable on the NAV of those particular units as explained in the example above.

Yes, the TER is deducted from the NAV of the scheme on a daily basis and is adjusted in the same.
