FAQ :

The circular aims to promote ease of doing business and introduce uniform timelines for processing scheme-related applications filed by AMCs.

The timeline applies to applications for changes in fundamental attributes of a scheme, merger/consolidation of schemes, rollover of close-ended schemes, and conversion of close-ended to open-ended schemes.

The circular is applicable to all applications received on or after September 01, 2021.

Yes, the timelines may not be adhered to if the application requires a policy decision, involves a unique situation needing wider consultation, or if the application is incomplete or non-compliant.

If SEBI raises modifications or queries within the 21 working days, the application is not deemed to be taken on record or approved.
