MFs/ AMCs shall ensure that only amounts loaded into e-wallet through cash or debit card or net banking, can be used for subscription to MF schemes. Any amount loaded into e-wallet through credit card, cash back, promotional scheme etc. are not allowed for subscription to MF schemes. Also no third party transactions are allowed through e-wallets.
Transfer Cheque : If the investor holds accounts in the same bank as that of the mutual fund, then the cheque only involves a transfer of funds within the same bank.
Local Cheque : If the investor's account is with another bank but in the same city, the collecting bank will have to go through the local clearing house, to get the cheque collected.
