Niranjan Avasthi, SVP & Head - Product, Marketing and Digital, Edelweiss MF said, “Investor experience has been reasonably good and we believe it will further strengthen investor confidence in the category. The change in taxation for debt MF may have a limited impact on TMFs in the long term, however, in the short term, flows may be slower in the longer maturity target maturity funds.”
