What is a mutual fund trail commission?

Trail commission is a recurring payout to distributors/ARN holders based on investors' AUM in regular plans, paid from the scheme's TER.

How is trail commission estimated?

Estimated payout = Average AUM × trail rate (bps) for the period, subject to slab structures and scheme/category policies.

Upfront is a one-time payment at onboarding (if applicable). Trail is ongoing; it aligns incentives with long-term assets under advice.

Direct plans do not pay distributor commissions and have a lower TER. Regular plans include distributor payouts within the TER.

Payouts are subject to prevailing tax rules (e.g., GST/TDS where applicable). Consult your tax advisor for current compliance.
