The definition above is the short version. A full explanation — how it works, a worked example and the exam traps — is still being written. In the meantime the chapter below covers it in context.

Written up from the same chapter

• FATCA and CRSTwo cross-border tax transparency regimes — one American, one OECD — under which a mutual fund's registrar identifies foreign-taxable investors and reports their accounts to the CBDT for automatic exchange.
• Instant Access FacilityA facility that credits redemption proceeds to a resident individual investor's bank account on the same day, offered only in overnight and liquid schemes and only through the AMC's own website or app.
• New Fund OfferThe period in which a mutual fund scheme's units are offered to the public for the first time, at a fixed NFO price rather than at NAV, and during which the registrar builds the scheme's first register of investors.
• Securities Transaction TaxA central government tax collected by the exchange on the sell side of every futures and option trade — 0.05% of futures traded value, 0.15% of option premium, and 0.15% of settlement price on exercise.
• Segregated portfolioA ring-fenced sub-portfolio holding the debt instrument hit by a credit event, split out of a scheme so that the good assets stay liquid and exiting investors cannot leave the damaged paper behind.
