Pursuant to the approval, the Trustee has fixed Tuesday, January 20, 2026, as the Record Date for determining the eligibility of unitholders to receive the IDCW.

If January 20, 2026, is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day shall be considered as the Record Date for this purpose. Only those investors whose names appear in the records of the Scheme as unit holders at the close of business hours on the Record Date will be entitled to receive the declared distribution.

The quantum of IDCW has been declared at ₹0.050 per unit, calculated on the face value of ₹10.00 per unit. This distribution will be applicable across multiple plan and option categories under the Scheme.

Specifically, the IDCW will be paid under the Wholesale Plan – Regular Plan – Normal IDCW Option (Payout and Reinvestment), Wholesale Plan – Direct Plan – Normal IDCW Option (Payout and Reinvestment), Wholesale Plan – Regular Plan – Monthly IDCW Option (Payout and Reinvestment), and Wholesale Plan – Direct Plan – Monthly IDCW Option (Payout and Reinvestment).

Investors should note that IDCW distributions are subject to the availability of distributable surplus and may result in a corresponding reduction in the Net Asset Value (NAV) of the units. Investors are advised to consider their investment objectives, tax implications, and risk profile before opting for the IDCW option under the Scheme.
