Hence the transaction is carried out at the net asset value (NAV) of T+1 (next day&#8217;s).<\/p>\n<p>The investment amount is settled to the AMC\u2019s bank account and on further reconciliation the units are allocated and investment is completed. Typically this takes two to three days.<\/p>\n<p>Note: NAV is calculated daily after market close. NAV is provided basis the credit realisation in the AMCs account.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2 &#8211;<\/strong> Depending on the type of mutual fund, the trade is cleared through a third-party payment gateway.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3 &#8211;<\/strong> Once the money is settled by the payment gateway to the AMCs, a reconciliation process starts. This is the process of matching up trade orders, registering and transferring share ownership. It typically takes 2-3 days after the transaction date for the complete reconciliation between the different parties (Channel partner, payment gateways, RTAs and AMCs)<br \/>\nHowever, Liquid Funds close and settle on the same day as the trade date.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4 &#8211;<\/strong> The NAV is allocated on the basis of the date and time when the money is settled to the AMC\u2019s account. Thus, it means that it may take a day or two more for the transaction to be considered as final and closed.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of a mandate transaction, the money that a customer owes must be available in their account from the day the transaction is initiated (T-1).<\/p>\n<p>As per the NPCI guidelines, the debit requests (transaction initiation) for mandate transactions should reach NPCI on T-1(the working day before the actual SIP date)<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s look at the cut-off time for a lumpsum and SIP Investments across various pay modes.<\/p>\n<h2>Mutual Fund Lumpsum Investment<\/h2>\n<p>Below table has the cut-off time and NAV unit allotment based on the payment mode for lumpsum investment in Mutual Fund.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2430 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paytmmoney.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Blog-on-Settlement-of-Funds_28-June-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"938\" height=\"613\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.paytmmoney.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Blog-on-Settlement-of-Funds_28-June-2.png 938w, https:\/\/www.paytmmoney.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Blog-on-Settlement-of-Funds_28-June-2-300x196.png 300w, https:\/\/www.paytmmoney.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Blog-on-Settlement-of-Funds_28-June-2-768x502.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 938px) 100vw, 938px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Mutual Fund SIP Investment<\/h2>\n<p>Below table is the cut-off time and NAV unit allotment for SIP investment in Mutual Fund:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2430 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paytmmoney.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Blog-on-Settlement-of-Funds_28-June-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"938\" height=\"613\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.paytmmoney.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Blog-on-Settlement-of-Funds_28-June-2.png 938w, https:\/\/www.paytmmoney.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Blog-on-Settlement-of-Funds_28-June-2-300x196.png 300w, https:\/\/www.paytmmoney.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Blog-on-Settlement-of-Funds_28-June-2-768x502.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 938px) 100vw, 938px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Important Note &#8211; Paytm Money does not hold the investor\u2019s money in it\u2019s account at any point of time, as funds directly flow from the investor\u2019s account to the payment gateway for settlements.
