    AMFI cuts ARN registration and renewal fees by 50%

    ARN registration fees and renewal fees have been slashed to Rs.1,500 and Rs.750, respectively.
    Team Cafemutual Apr 30, 2021

    AMFI has reduced ARN registration and renewal fees by 50% effective May 1, 2021.

    With this, the new ARN registration and renewal fee for individual distributors have been reduced to Rs.1500 and Rs.750 excluding GST, respectively.

    Similarly, AMFI has slashed EUIN registration and renewal fees to Rs.500 and Rs.750, respectively.

    AMFI has reduced registration and renewal fees for all categories of distributors be it individual, sole proprietary, LLP, HUF or private limited. 

    Nilesh Shah, Chairman, AMFI said: “We aim to have greater number of small savers to benefit from long term investment solutions offered by the mutual fund industry. This initiative of reducing the registration and renewal fees would help larger number of individuals from across the country to come into Mutual Fund distribution fold and contribute to the last mile connectivity.”

    NS Venkatesh, Chief Executive, AMFI said, “The reduced fees for ARN and EUIN registration and renewals for the Mutual Fund Distributors would go a long way in helping the cause of Mutual Fund expansion. We also want the younger generation to look at Mutual Fund Distribution as an exciting career opportunity and with this reduction in fees we hope to attract far higher number of new Mutual Fund distributors which would help the industry to enhance penetration and channelize small savings into long term market-linked savings solutions.

    There is keen competition with online direct investment. Upfront has been stopped. Distributors commission is being reduces gradually. GST has been implemented. Tax has been imposed on M F Return. So this profession is losing its momentum

    AMFI hired Cricketers to make people aware how much they losing in regular plans, ridiculous step to snatch livelihood from small time distributors.
    I feel like Cigarette company promoting do not smoke with same famous personalities for their company packup.

    Please ,start upfront commissions for every distributor. If you want mobilize and collect more funds from investors . There will be no Tax on upfront And Reneual commission. How can we survive? If you not encourage us.

    Aur ek favour kar do bhai
    Renewal kaa jo period hai wo 3 Saal se badhakar at least 5 saal kar do.
    Ye 3 saal mein thode hi kuch badal jaata hai.
    Jaimin Shah · 3 years ago
    Why to even Renew? If one have been paying fees for everything then it should b life time !! Besides they reduced individuals ARN's commission & if i m not wrong they (AMFI) might have done some understanding MOU with the online vendors of MF for giving them good commission !!
    ????Seriously yaar is this incredible india ?? I hate such idiots ???? bureaucrates who take decisions without even any polls or meeting with ARN holders !!
    ???? Even this Disagreement wud b only kept in Cafemutual !! I dont know whn wud they send this comments to AMFI / SEBI !!
    ???? we can only Hope !!!

    This is a welcome move, but the important part is even for Registration or renewal one has to go to centre’s or undergo refresher courses. It would be more obvious to have renewal period of 5 yrs, rather then 3yrs. This would help all the MFDs in surpassing this worst period without much deliberation in renewal procedure. A humble suggestion.

    Cafe mutual fund take up this issue
    Senior citizens / with xnumber of years of experience in mutual fund industry should not be forced to appear for traning class offline/online during this Corona period.
    Recently I wanted to appear for exam and checked with center to provide me number participants and size of class ,they didn't gave details.
    Last renewal time in the class of 40 student 70 were forced to sit.
    I don't mind paying fee for class and attend class from home.

    Now MF authorty realise without field work force they are struggling. That they have to understand in operational level as well too. Also one more things AMFI ARN Identity should be some power for orfen mutual fund customer. If this things getting done may very helpful to orfan mf customer and it increase MF reputatoin among public.
