From WebNotes, a public knowledge base. Last updated . Reading time ~6 min. Level: Beginner.

This guide covers investing in PPFAS Mutual Fund schemes through Kuvera, a fintech aggregator platform known for its goal-based investing tools and family-portfolio management. Kuvera operates similarly to other direct-plan aggregators like Groww, ET Money, and INDmoney, but adds distinctive features for users who want goal-aligned planning. PPFAS schemes are fully available on Kuvera.

Step-by-step procedure

Step 1: Ensure an active Kuvera account with completed KYC

Sign up at kuvera.in if not yet registered. Complete:

  • PAN registration with OTP verification.
  • Aadhaar e-KYC.
  • Bank-account linkage via penny-drop or net banking.
  • Document upload (signature, photograph).

KYC completion typically 24-48 hours.

Step 2: Log in to Kuvera

Open kuvera.in or the Kuvera mobile app. Log in with credentials.

Step 3: Search for the PPFAS scheme

In the search bar, enter:

  • Parag Parikh Flexi Cap Fund or PPFCF.
  • Other PPFAS scheme names.

Kuvera shows the direct-plan variant.

Step 4: Open the scheme detail page

Review the scheme’s:

  • NAV, AUM, expense ratio.
  • Performance over various periods.
  • Risk profile.
  • Kuvera’s research-quality scoring (proprietary metric).
  • Peer comparison.

Step 5: Choose Invest then Lump-sum or SIP

Tap Invest:

  • Lump-sum: One-time. Enter amount.
  • SIP: Recurring. Enter per-installment amount, frequency, SIP date.

Kuvera’s distinctive feature is goal-based investing:

  • Define a goal (retirement at 60, child’s college education in 2040, etc.).
  • Specify target amount and timeline.
  • Kuvera computes the required SIP amount for the goal.
  • The investment can be tagged to the goal for tracking.

This feature helps systematic financial planning. PPFCF as an equity-oriented scheme is suitable for long-horizon goals (10+ years).

Step 7: Authorise payment via UPI, net banking, or NACH

Standard payment options:

  • UPI / Net banking / IMPS / RTGS: For lump-sum.
  • NACH e-mandate / UPI Autopay: For SIPs.

Step 8: Track holdings in Kuvera’s portfolio dashboard

Holdings appear in Kuvera’s portfolio dashboard after T+1 allotment. The dashboard provides:

  • Goal-aligned tracking.
  • Family-portfolio aggregation (if family members are linked).
  • Performance attribution.
  • Rebalancing suggestions.

The underlying folio at CAMS is also visible in SelfInvest and MF Central.
