Our revenues and profitability are directly linked to our quarterly average assets under management ("QAAUM"), and any material decline or changes in the composition of our QAAUM due to market movements, redemptions, or other factors could significantly impact our financial performance.
Adverse capital market conditions and downturns could reduce our AUM and management fee / TER income; our business is further exposed to liquidity risks due to such downturns which in turn could have a spiral/compounding effect on both our equity and debt/money market schemes through higher redemptions and lower SIP inflows, which can accelerate AUM declines and may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
A portion of our mutual fund QAAUM and revenue from mutual fund operations is concentrated in a limited number of schemes, and any adverse developments affecting these schemes could materially affect our business.
We are subject to strict regulatory requirements and prudential norms; our failure to comply with such laws, regulations and norms, including the SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations and guidelines thereunder, may have an adverse effect on our reputation, registration, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We are subject to extensive regulation by SEBI and other regulatory authorities. Changes in regulations, failure to comply with regulatory requirements, non-compliance with SEBI's observations made during inspections or adverse outcomes from SEBI inspections could adversely affect our business.
22.82%, 23.04%, and 21.64% of our mutual fund AUM as at March 31, 2026, March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024, respectively were sourced from B-30 cities, which may exhibit higher redemption volatility during market downturns and could adversely affect our AUM, revenues and results of operations.
Our Jan Nivesh SIP product, targeted at first-time and low-ticket investors, may experience higher discontinuance rates, which could adversely affect our SIP persistency metrics, recurring inflows and AUM.
Changes to the regulatory framework governing mutual fund fees and expenses, including the introduction of the Base Expense Ratio framework and reduction in TER caps, directly reduce our management fee and TER income, and the ongoing increase in the proportion of passive schemes within our AUM mix which carry significantly lower management fees than actively managed schemes further compresses our operating margins and profitability.
We face risks relating to the growth of passive investment products, which typically have lower fees and could impact our actively managed QAAUM and reduce our profitability.
We have declared dividends in the past, including at significantly higher levels in Fiscal 2026 compared to prior years. However, there can be no assurance regarding our ability to pay dividends in the future or to maintain dividend payouts at similar levels.
