AMCs stocks trade higher after Sebi revises expense ratio rule for mutual fund

18 Dec 2025 Evaluate

Shares of asset management companies traded higher as Markets regulator -- the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) in its board meeting has approved a comprehensive overhaul of mutual fund regulations, including changes to the expense ratio framework and limits on brokerage charges.

HDFC Asset Management Company is currently trading at Rs. 2724.20, up by 182.95 points or 7.20% from its previous closing of Rs. 2541.25 on the BSE.

Canara Robeco Asset Management is currently trading at Rs. 302.60, up by 15.85 points or 5.53% from its previous closing of Rs. 286.75 on the BSE.

Nippon Life India Asset Management is currently trading at Rs. 909.65, up by 44.80 points or 5.18% from its previous closing of Rs. 864.85 on the BSE.

The board decided to eliminate the additional 5 basis points (bps) that asset management companies (AMCs) were previously allowed to charge across mutual fund schemes. This additional expense, introduced to offset the impact of crediting exit loads back to schemes, was first set at 20 bps in 2012 and later reduced to 5 bps in 2018. The additional expense of 5 bps that mutual fund schemes were allowed to charge was transitory in nature. Accordingly, with the objective of rationalizing costs for unitholders, this expense has been decided to be removed. To protect the interest of investors and to ensure that expenses are charged fairly only once to the investors, the brokerage charge has been revised from 12 bps to 6 bps for cash market transactions and 5 bps to 2 bps for derivative transactions to bring clarity and transparency.
