SEBI ke instruction par fund ghar Gold ETF FoFs mein naye paise nahi khaate.
Abhi existing SIPs aur redemptions chal rahe hain par naya paisa nahi aa sakta aur yeh bhi nahi pata ki jab tak khidki dubara khulti hai.
SEBI ke instructions ke baad, kai mutual fund houses ne apne Gold ETF Fund of Funds mein fresh investments temporarily rok di hain, jo 16 October 2026 se effective hai. Notices 15 October ki shaam se jaane lage the, aur expected hai ki aur AMCs bhi follow karenge. Haan, existing SIPs continue kar sakte hain.
Jin fund houses ne fresh inflows roke hain unmein Tata, UTI, ICICI Prudential, HDFC, Aditya Birla Sun Life, DSP aur Invesco India shamil hain.
Ye restriction Gold Fund of Funds par apply hoti hai, Gold ETFs par nahi.
Kya band ho gaya hai
AMC notices ke according, gold FoFs ab yeh accept nahi karenge:
- Fresh aur additional lumpsum purchases
- Dusre schemes se switch-ins
- Naye SIP registrations
- Naye STP registrations jahan gold FoF target scheme ho
- SIP top-ups aur step-ups (kayi AMCs mein)
Kuch fund houses ne isse bhi aage badhkar steps liye hain. ICICI Prudential ne IDCW transfer plan ke under transfer-ins ko bhi block kar diya hai, saath hi special products aur features ke under SIPs aur STPs ko bhi. HDFC ne restriction ko apne pure gold FoF se aage badha kar HDFC Gold Silver Passive FOF tak extend kar diya hai.
Kya continue hota hai
Jo investors already in schemes mein hain, un par largely koi asar nahi padega. Effective date se pehle registered SIPs aur STPs ke under instalments applicable NAV par hi process hoti rahengi. Redemptions, switch-outs aur existing SWPs Scheme Information Document ke according allowed rahenge. UTI ne bhi confirm kiya hai ki existing Flexi STPs operational rahenge.
Cut-off timings alag hain
Most AMCs ke liye effective date 16 October hai, but kuch ne ek din pehle hi line draw kar di hai. UTI kehta hai ki 15 October ko 3 PM ya usse pehle timestamp hui transactions applicable NAV par process hongi. HDFC ki restriction 15 October ke 3 PM cut-off ke baad apply hoti hai, aur Invesco ki 15 October ke close of business se.

Koi end date nahi hai
Kisi bhi notice mein timeline nahi bataya gaya hai. Tata aur UTI ne suspension ko temporary kehkar “till further notice” tak karne ka zikr kiya hai, jabki ICICI Prudential ka notice kehta hai ki fresh subscriptions “discontinued” ho gaye hain, lekin wahan koi time frame nahi bataya gaya hai.
MFDs ko kya note karna chahiye
Investors ke liye jo pehle bhi units kehte hain aur SIP chal rahe hain, unka investment apne kaam karta hai – koi koi kaise change nahi aata. MFDs ko yeh caution karne chahiye ki kisi bhi scheme mein SIP cancel karke again register mat jayein, kyunki naya registration wala route abhi se pass na ho paega. Pending lumpsum orders ya STPs ye scheme mein bhi shayad reject ho jain.
Restriction ki scope scheme par scheme hoti hai – toh distributors ko har AMC ka official notice dhyan se dekha chahiye avant koi investor ko advice dene.
