In
the wake of Covid-19 pandemic threat, the government and municipal authorities
have already ordered private offices to implement social-distancing measures
(such as instructing their staff to work from home and keeping their offices
closed etc.) to avoid and discourage assembling of people in offices.
Considering
the current situation, it is imperative for ALL offices to ensure that not only
their employees, but also their customers and visitors follow the
social-distancing measures and are dissuaded from travelling & visiting the
offices by providing alternative solutions.
Under
the circumstances, as a social-distancing measure to ensure safety of investors,
distributors, visitors and the employees of the mutual funds & their RTAs,
all Mutual Funds shall keep their collection centres / branch offices
(“official points of acceptance”) closed with effect from Monday 23rd March
2020 and allow only online transactions through various electronic modes, such
as mutual fund websites /web-portals / various digital platforms /apps or
virtual channels etc. till the situation comes under control and until social
distancing advisory is withdrawn by the authorities.
All
mutual fund investors and distributors are requested to bear with the mutual
funds and to use the digital / electronic modes for their mutual fund
transactions.
Please
avoid travelling except for medical reasons or emergencies till the situation becomes
