Plain-language summary

Income-oriented debt or money-market exposure

The objective of the Plan is to generate risk-free returns through investments in sovereign securities issued by the Central Government and/or State Government(s) and/or any security unconditionally guaranteed by the Government of India, and/or reverse repos in such securities as and when permitted by RBI. A portion of the fund may be invested in Reverse repo, Triparty repo on Government securities or treasury bills and/or other similar instruments as may be notified to meet the day-to-day liquidity requirements of the Plan. To ensure total safety of Unitholders' funds, the Plan does not invest in any other securities such as shares, debentures or bonds issued by any other entity. The Fund will seek to underwrite issuance of Government Securities if and to the extent permitted by SEBI/RBI and subject to the prevailing rules and regulations specified in this respect and may also participate in their auction from time to time. Subject to the maximum amount permitted from time to time, the Plan may invest in securities abroad, in the manner allowed by SEBI/RBI in conformity with the guidelines, rules and regulations in this respect. There is no assurance that the investment objective of the Plan will be achieved. It is however emphasized, that investments under the Plan are made in Government Securities, where there is no risk of default of payment in principal or interest amount.
