When investing in mutual funds via FYERS, you’ll notice that all offerings are under the Direct Plan variant. Direct mutual funds give investors access to the same schemes as regular plans—but at a lower cost—because there are no distributor commissions or advisory fees involved.
FYERS supports only direct mutual fund investments, enabling investors to maximise returns through low expense ratios and zero commissions.
Direct mutual funds are offered directly by the Asset Management Company (AMC), without intermediaries such as agents or brokers. As a result, the AMC incurs lower distribution costs, which translates to a lower expense ratio for the investor and often leads to better long-term performance compared to regular plans.
Whether you're investing in equity, debt, or hybrid mutual funds, FYERS provides access only to the direct versions of these schemes—helping you build your portfolio cost-effectively.
| Scenario | Explanation |
|---|---|
| You invest through FYERS | All your mutual fund investments are in direct plans, with zero commission charges. |
| You are switching from a regular to a direct plan | You must redeem the regular plan and reinvest in the direct plan. This may trigger capital gains tax. |
| You notice different NAVs for the same scheme | Direct plans have higher NAVs than regular ones due to lower expense ratios. This is expected. |
