Understanding IDCW

IDCW, formerly referred to as dividends in mutual funds, involves periodic payouts from a scheme’s distributable surplus. These payouts depend on the availability of funds and are not fixed. Investors should note that IDCW is subject to taxation, with tax deducted at source (TDS) applicable in some cases.

Record Date and Eligibility

The record date determines eligibility for the income distribution. Only unit holders whose names appear in the fund records by the end of February 6, 2025, will receive the announced payouts. Investors who purchase units after this date will not be eligible for the current distribution.

Other Considerations

These IDCW distributions provide existing investors with an income payout. Those considering mutual fund investments should assess their financial goals and tax implications before selecting between IDCW and growth options.
