AMFI / SEBI Mandatory Disclosure

Mutual Fund investments are subject to market risks. Read all scheme-related documents carefully before investing. The NAVs of schemes may go up or down based on market conditions and factors affecting the securities market. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Returns shown in any illustrations, examples, or calculators on this website are for informational purposes only and do not represent guaranteed or assured returns.

2. Not Investment Advice

Chavan Capital is not a SEBI Registered Investment Advisor (RIA) under the SEBI (Investment Advisers) Regulations, 2013.

The information, fund recommendations, portfolio suggestions, financial planning guidance, and educational content provided by Chavan Capital — whether on this website, in person, via WhatsApp, phone, or any other channel — is:

  • Based on publicly available information and your disclosed financial profile
  • Provided for general informational and educational purposes only
  • Not a substitute for independent professional investment advice
  • Not a solicitation to buy or sell any specific financial product

You are strongly encouraged to consult a SEBI Registered Investment Advisor, a Chartered Accountant, and/or a legal advisor before making any investment decisions, particularly for large or complex financial matters.

3. Market Risk Disclosure

Investing in mutual funds involves financial risk. Before investing, you should clearly understand the following:

  • Capital Risk: You may get back less than the amount you invest. There is no capital protection in equity mutual funds.
  • Market Volatility: The value of investments can fluctuate significantly due to equity market movements, interest rate changes, currency fluctuations, and economic conditions.
  • Past Performance: Historical returns of a scheme, fund manager, or asset class do not predict or guarantee future returns. Performance figures shown on this website are illustrative only.
  • Liquidity Risk: While most mutual fund units are redeemable, certain scheme types (ELSS, close-ended funds) have lock-in periods during which redemption is not possible.
  • Concentration Risk: Sector-specific or thematic funds are subject to higher risk due to their concentrated investment strategy.
  • Credit Risk: Debt fund NAVs can be affected by credit rating downgrades or defaults of underlying securities.
  • Interest Rate Risk: Debt fund returns are inversely affected by rising interest rates.

Each scheme's specific risk factors are detailed in the Scheme Information Document (SID) and Key Information Memorandum (KIM), which you must read before investing. These are available on the respective AMC website and from Chavan Capital on request.

4. Distributor Status — What We Are and Are Not

Chavan Capital IS
  • ✓ An AMFI Registered MF Distributor (ARN-324301)
  • ✓ Authorised to distribute mutual fund schemes
  • ✓ Regulated under AMFI Code of Conduct
  • ✓ Authorised to assist with KYC and transactions
Chavan Capital is NOT
  • ✗ A SEBI Registered Investment Advisor
  • ✗ A Portfolio Manager or PMS provider
  • ✗ A Stock Broker or Sub-Broker
  • ✗ A holder or custodian of client funds

Your investments are always held directly in your name with the respective AMC and are accessible through CAMS or KFintech registrar portals regardless of your relationship with us.

5. Commission & Remuneration Disclosure

In the interest of full transparency, Chavan Capital discloses the following regarding its remuneration model:

  • Chavan Capital earns commissions (upfront and/or trail) from Asset Management Companies (AMCs) for distributing their mutual fund schemes
  • These commissions are built into the Total Expense Ratio (TER) of Regular Plan schemes and do not represent an additional charge to investors
  • Regular Plan schemes have a higher TER than Direct Plan schemes of the same fund due to the distributor commission component
  • The specific commission amounts are disclosed in the Common Application Form at the point of investment as mandated by AMFI regulations
  • This commission structure means that Chavan Capital has a financial interest in distributing mutual fund products — a conflict of interest that we actively manage by prioritising client suitability in all recommendations

Investors wishing to invest in Direct Plans (no distributor commission, lower TER) may do so directly on AMC websites or platforms such as MF Central or CAMS Online.

6. Calculator and Illustration Disclaimer

The SIP Calculator, Lumpsum Calculator, and any other financial calculation tools or return illustrations on the Chavan Capital website are provided strictly for educational and illustrative purposes only.

  • Calculator results are based on assumed rates of return entered by the user and do not represent actual, projected, or guaranteed returns
  • Results do not account for exit loads, taxation, inflation, or market volatility
  • Historical return figures used in examples (e.g., "12% annual return") are illustrative only and are not promises of future performance
  • Actual investment returns will vary based on market conditions, scheme performance, and timing of investment
  • The calculators are not financial planning tools and should not be used as the sole basis for investment decisions
