    Other AMCs should have done this immediately after announcing the applicability of GST to the distributors. Most were busy in justifying the reverse charge mechanism etc even in the service tax era.

    Motilal Oswal is already doing it, if they can, all the AMCs can.
    Distributors should collectively put pressure on all the AMCs to do the same.
