Direct mutual fund investing in India

Mon, 18 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Direct mutual fund investing in India refers to investing in the direct-plan variant of a mutual fund scheme, bypassing the distributor channel and consequently paying a lower total expense ratio than the equivalent regular plan. The SEBI direct-plan regime, introduced on 1 January 2013, mandated that every Indian mutual fund must offer a direct variant of every scheme alongside the regular variant. The mechanism is simple: the investor transacts directly with the AMC (or through an execution-only platform that does not earn a distribution commission) rather than through a SEBI-registered mutual fund distributor.

How to invest in PPFAS schemes via ET Money

ET Money sits in an interesting spot among Indian mutual fund aggregators. It belongs to Times Internet (the digital arm of the Times Group, which also owns Economic Times), and it leans on that editorial heritage with its own research scoring, fund recommendations, and tax-related content. None of that changes the underlying transaction mechanics, which are the same as on Groww or Kuvera. But if you like the idea of running mutual fund decisions through the same media-group ecosystem you read finance news in, ET Money is the natural fit.
