Usually each unit costs \u20b910. If you invest \u20b920,000 during the offer period you buy 2,000 units. Those units appear in your account after the NFO closes and the allotment is finished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The NFO allotment process follows a fixed timeline set by the Securities and Exchange Board of India SEBI. Knowing this timeline helps you understand when money leaves the bank account when units appear in the portfolio and when the scheme can be bought or sold at its price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_NFO_timeline_from_offer_to_sale\"><\/span>The NFO timeline from offer to sale<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Stage<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">What happens<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Timing<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Offer period<\/td><td>Investors apply and pay at the offer price, usually \u20b910 per unit.<\/td><td>A maximum of 15 days and a longer period is permitted for equity linked savings schemes (ELSS).<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Allotment or refund<\/td><td>Units are allotted to valid applications and money for rejected applications is refunded.<\/td><td>Within five business days of the NFO closing.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ongoing sale and repurchase<\/td><td>An open-ended scheme reopens for regular purchases and redemptions at the applicable NAV.<\/td><td>Within five business days of allotment.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Deployment of proceeds<\/td><td>The fund house invests the money collected as the scheme document describes.<\/td><td>Within 30 business days of allotment with a one-time extension through the Investment Committee.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_units_are_allotted\"><\/span>How units are allotted<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Units are allotted by dividing the amount invested by the offer price. Valid applications receive units at that price. The scheme document also tells whether any cap applies to the amount the scheme can raise. A mutual fund NFO is not a lottery like a public offering of shares. Therefore the main reasons for non-allotment are an application, a payment problem or a missed deadline. After allotment a statement of account or a credit of units appears in the demat or mutual fund account within the same five\u2011business\u2011day window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_step%E2%80%91by%E2%80%91step_process\"><\/span>The step\u2011by\u2011step process<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Step<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">What happens<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>1.

Any exit load is deducted from the proceeds. A closed\u2011ended scheme issues units during the NFO. Therefore its units are listed on a stock exchange. The exchange is the only exit before maturity. That makes liquidity a practical concern for closed\u2011ended NFOs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_%E2%82%B910_does_not_mean\"><\/span>Why \u20b910 does not mean<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Factor<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">NFO<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Existing fund<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>NAV<\/td><td>\u20b910 face value, which is a starting reference and not a valuation<\/td><td>Reflects the portfolios past performance<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Track record<\/td><td>None<\/td><td>Returns over one, three and five years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Strategy<\/td><td>May be niche<\/td><td>Established and observable<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Risk assessment<\/td><td>Harder, since there is no history<\/td><td>Easier with data available<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A \u20b910 NAV and a \u20b9150 NAV deliver the percentage return on the same portfolio.

The real decision comes before it: does the scheme offer something that existing funds in the category do not? Comparing an NFO with existing funds on strategy costs and track record answers that question better than the offer price does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kuvera offers mutual funds.

How long does NFO allotment take?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Units are. The money is refunded, within five business days of the NFO closing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. At what price are NFO units allotted?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the offer price usually the face value of \u20b910, per unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. How long can an NFO stay open?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An NFO can remain open for, up to 15 days.

When can NFO units be sold?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NFO units of a ended scheme can be redeemed after the scheme reopens, within five business days of allotment and only if any exit load applies.
