• Through depositories, the Scheme's units will be issued in dematerialized form on a mandatory basis. Regarding the number of Units available to the credit of Unitholders, the depository's records are conclusive. Trade settlement and the mutual fund's repurchase of units are contingent upon receiving confirmations from the depository or depository(ies), over which the mutual fund has no influence.

• The scheme's units may trade either above or below their NAV, or face value. The scheme's NAV will fluctuate in response to shifts in the market value of the scheme's assets.

• According to the Scheme Information Document, the plan would invest in a variety of securities, each with a particular amount and kind of risk. As a result, the risk of the plan may rise or fall based on how it is invested; for example, corporate bonds are riskier than government assets.
