ICICI Prudential MF declares IDCW payout, sets April 13 as record date

The record date for this distribution has been set as April 13, 2026. In case the date falls on a non-business day, the immediately following business day will be considered for determining eligible investors.

This means that only those unitholders whose names appear in the records on the specified date will qualify for the distribution.

As per the disclosure, the payout under the Quarterly IDCW option stands at ₹0.0697 per unit, calculated on a face value of ₹10 per unit. For investors in the Direct Plan under the Quarterly IDCW option, the distribution is slightly higher at ₹0.0916 per unit. These amounts reflect the income being distributed from the scheme, which primarily invests in medium-term debt instruments.

IDCW payouts are not guaranteed and depend on the availability of distributable surplus in the scheme. Such distributions may also include a portion of investors’ own capital, depending on market conditions and fund performance. Investors should therefore view these payouts in the context of their overall investment goals and income expectations rather than as fixed returns.

Medium-term bond funds typically invest in debt securities with moderate duration, aiming to balance interest rate risk and return potential. While they can offer a relatively stable income compared to equity funds, they remain sensitive to interest rate movements and credit risks in the underlying portfolio.

Investors are generally advised to review scheme details, consult a financial planner or expert, and also consider their financial objectives before making decisions related to IDCW options or reinvestment strategies.
