This guide covers registering for in-person attendance at the PPFAS Mutual Fund Annual Unitholders’ Meet (AUM). The AUM is held annually in Mumbai (in recent years at Birla Matushree Sabhaghar, Marine Lines); the 12th AUM was held there on 22 November 2025. In-person attendance offers direct engagement with the fund managers, a more interactive Q&A experience, and the opportunity to meet fellow PPFAS investors. The live-stream alternative is covered in how to watch the PPFAS Annual Unitholders’ Meet livestream.

Step-by-step procedure

Step 1: Watch for the AUM registration announcement

PPFAS announces registration opening 6 to 8 weeks before the event through:

PPFAS monthly factsheet: Notice in the September-October factsheets.
PPFAS social media: @PPFAS on X and the LinkedIn company page.
PPFAS YouTube channel: Pre-event announcement video.
Email to registered investors: Direct email via SelfInvest’s registered email.

The announcement includes:

AUM date and venue.
Registration link.
Eligibility criteria.
Registration deadline.

Step 2: Access the registration form on amc.ppfas.com

Navigate to amc.ppfas.com and find the AUM Registration page or the dedicated AUM landing page (typically prominent during the registration window).

The registration form is hosted directly on the PPFAS site.

Step 3: Fill the registration form with required details

Standard registration form fields:

Full name (as per PAN).
PAN.
Folio number (any PPFAS folio).
Contact email and mobile.
City of residence.
Whether bringing a guest (if supported; subject to space).
Guest name (if applicable).
Optional: specific topic or question for the Q&A.

Submit the form.

Step 4: Submit and await confirmation

PPFAS confirms registration via email, typically within 1 to 2 weeks of submission. The confirmation includes:

Confirmed attendance.
Venue address with map link.
Event start time.
Any pre-event communications or reading material.

If capacity is reached, registration may be closed before the deadline; some investors are placed on a waitlist for cancellations.

Step 5: Plan travel and accommodation

PPFAS does not arrange travel or hotels. Plan independently:

Travel to Mumbai: Direct flights from most Indian cities; trains and buses from nearby cities.
Accommodation: Hotels in South Mumbai (Marine Drive, Nariman Point, Colaba) are convenient to Birla Matushree Sabhaghar (Marine Lines). Hotels in Bandra-Kurla Complex or other Mumbai areas require local commute.
Local transport: Mumbai local trains, taxis, auto-rickshaws, ride-hailing apps (Uber, Ola).

For investors from outside India, arrange visa, travel, and accommodation well in advance.

Step 6: Bring identification and the registration confirmation

Required at the venue:

Government photo ID: PAN card, Aadhaar card, passport, voter ID, or driving licence. Used for entry verification.
Registration confirmation: Email printout or smartphone display.

Optional but useful:

A notebook and pen for taking notes during the event.
Water bottle for the multi-hour duration.
Light snacks (food may or may not be provided at the venue; check the confirmation).

Step 7: Arrive in advance

Arrive 30 to 45 minutes before the event start:

Venue entry: ID verification and registration check.
Seating: Typically first-come-first-served within the registered attendees. Earlier arrival means better seats.
Networking: Some investors meet fellow attendees, the PPFAS team, or industry contacts before the event begins.

Step 8: Engage with the event and Q&A

The typical AUM experience for in-person attendees:

Opening remarks and presentations: Same content as the live stream (see how to watch the PPFAS Annual Unitholders’ Meet livestream for the agenda).
Live Q&A: In-person attendees often have priority for the live Q&A. Raise hand or use the venue’s microphone system to ask questions.
Closing and networking: Post-event networking with the PPFAS team and fellow investors. Some attendees use this time for informal interaction.

In-person attendance is operationally more engaging than the live stream but requires the travel investment.

What can go wrong

Registration window closing early: High-demand AUMs may close registration before the announced deadline. Register as soon as the link is live.
Capacity full and on waitlist: If full, the waitlist may or may not move depending on cancellations. Plan a backup option (live stream).
Guest registration restrictions: Guest registration may be limited or unavailable in some years. Confirm specifically before planning to bring a guest.
Travel disruption: Mumbai monsoon (June-September) is over by the typical AUM month; some flight or train disruptions still possible. Build buffer time.
Venue change at short notice: Rare but possible. Monitor PPFAS communications close to the event.
In-person Q&A priority not guaranteed: Online Q&A questions may also be addressed; in-person attendance does not guarantee getting the floor.
Photography and recording at the venue: Personal photography is usually OK; commercial recording may be restricted. Follow venue and PPFAS guidelines.
Dress code: Business-casual is typical; check the registration confirmation for any specific requirement.
Multiple folios under one PAN: A single registration typically covers the PAN holder; multiple folios under the same PAN do not entitle to multiple seats.
Joint folio second-holder registration: Each joint-folio holder typically requires separate registration. Confirm specifics.
