Mutual Fund Charges on FYERS Platform

What charges apply for investing in mutual funds through FYERS?

If you're investing in mutual funds via FYERS, you're benefiting from a cost-effective platform. Most actions, including purchasing, are free of charge. However, there is one specific fee applicable at the time of redemption. Here’s a breakdown of the charges and how to check fund-level expenses like expense ratios.

Are there charges for buying mutual funds?

No, FYERS does not charge any fee for purchasing mutual funds. It’s completely free, and there are no platform commissions or hidden costs.

What charges apply when you redeem your investments?

When you redeem (sell) mutual fund units through FYERS, a Depository Participant (DP) charge is applied:

  • ₹12.5 + 18% GST per ISIN
  • This charge is levied per redemption transaction, not per unit

This is a standard charge across all Demat platforms and is deducted automatically when your units are debited from your Demat account.

How to check the expense ratio of a mutual fund?

You can view the expense ratio directly on FYERS. Here's how:

  • Log in to FYERS (Web or App)
  • Search for or select the mutual fund you're interested in
  • The expense ratio and other key fund metrics will be displayed
