Why invest in an Index?

“Over the past 35 years, American business has delivered terrific results. It should therefore

have been easy for investors to earn juicy returns: All they had to do was piggyback

Corporate America in a diversified, low-expense way. An index fund that they never

touched would have done the job. Instead many investors have had experiences ranging

from mediocre to disastrous.”

“By periodically investing in a low cost index fund, a know-nothing investor can actually

outperform most investment professionals.”

-Warren Buffet

Risk Factors

The Scheme invests in the stocks comprising the index regardless of their investment merit. The Mutual Fund does not attempt to take defensive

positions in declining markets.

As the scheme proposes to invest not less than 90% of the net assets in securities comprising of BSE SENSEX, any deletion of stocks from or

addition to in BSE SENSEX may require sudden and immediate liquidation or acquisition of such stocks at the prevailing market prices irrespective

of whether valuation of stocks is attractive enough. This may not always be in the interest of unitholders.

The scheme will attract provisions of take over regulations, if it invests in more than 10% of the paid up capital of a company and therefore may

not be able to accept further subscriptions.

The performance of the SENSEX will have a direct bearing on the performance of the scheme. Hence any composition change by virtue of

weightage or stocks selection will have an impact on the scheme.

Though Kotak Sensex ETF is proposed to be listed on the stock exchange, there is no assurance that an active secondary market will develop

or be maintained.

Tracking error may have an impact on the performance of the scheme. However KMAMC will endeavour to keep the tracking error as low

as possible.

Investors may note that even though this is an open-ended scheme, they will have to buy or sell units of the scheme on the stock exchanges

where these units are listed for liquidity at the market price, subject to the rules and regulations of the exchange. Buying and selling units on

stock exchange requires the investor to engage the services of a broker and are subject to payment of margins as required by the stock

exchange/broker, payment of brokerage, securities transactions tax and such other costs.

Why invest in an Index?

• Passive investing -

• Low costs -

• No style drift -

• Difficult to outperform -

Eliminates the risk of stock selection and fund managers discretion.

Maximum expenses capped @ 1.5%.

The scheme exactly invests as per the index and hence sticks to the mandate.

Globally, over a period of 3 and 5 years, S&P 500 has beaten 64.9%

of the large cap funds and the S&P Midcap 400 has outperformed 80.5% of midcap funds.*

Risk Factors

• General Risks:

• Scheme Specific Risk:

• Liquidity Risk:

• Regulatory Risk:

• Market Risk:

Mutual Funds investments are subject to market risks and there is no assurance or guarantee that the objectives of the Schemes will

be achieved. As with any securities investment, the NAV of the Units issued under the Schemes can go up or down depending on the factors and

forces affecting the capital and money markets. Past performance of the Sponsor/AMC/Fund or that of existing Schemes of the Fund does not

indicate the future performance of the Schemes. Kotak Sensex ETF is only the name of the scheme and does not in any manner indicate the quality

of the Scheme, its future prospects or returns.

The Scheme is subject to the principal risks described below. Some or all of these risks may adversely affect Scheme’s NAV,

trading price, yield, total return and/or its ability to meet its objectives.-The NAV of the units is closely related to the value of stocks that form a part of the benchmark index. The value of this will react to stock market

movements and may result in changes in the NAV of units under the scheme. There could also be movements in the scheme’s NAV due to changes

in interest rates, marco economic and political developments and over longer periods during market downturns.

Trading in Kotak Sensex ETF may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that in the view of the Exchange Authorities or

SEBI, trading in Kotak Sensex ETF is not advisable. There could also be trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility and pursuant to

NSE/BSE and SEBI circuit filter rules. There can be no assurance that the requirements of the exchange necessary to maintain the listing of the

kotak Sensex ETF will continue to be met or will remain unchanged.

Any changes in trading regulations by the stock exchange (s) or SEBI may affect the ability of Authorised Participant to arbitrage

resulting into wider premium/ discount to NAV.

The market in general could under perform returns from the securities or other asset classes. As the scheme proposes to invest not less

than 90% of the net assets in the securities of the benchmark Index, the Scheme is a passively managed scheme and provides exposure to the

benchmark and tracking its performance and yield as closely as possible. The Schemes performance may be affected by a general price decline in

the stock markets.

Risk Factors

• General Risks:

• Scheme Specific Risk:

• Liquidity Risk:

• Regulatory Risk:

• Market Risk:

Mutual Funds investments are subject to market risks and there is no assurance or guarantee that the objectives of the Schemes will

be achieved. As with any securities investment, the NAV of the Units issued under the Schemes can go up or down depending on the factors and

forces affecting the capital and money markets. Past performance of the Sponsor/AMC/Fund or that of existing Schemes of the Fund does not

indicate the future performance of the Schemes. Kotak Sensex ETF is only the name of the scheme and does not in any manner indicate the quality

of the Scheme, its future prospects or returns.

The Scheme is subject to the principal risks described below. Some or all of these risks may adversely affect Scheme’s NAV,

trading price, yield, total return and/or its ability to meet its objectives.-The NAV of the units is closely related to the value of stocks that form a part of the benchmark index. The value of this will react to stock market

movements and may result in changes in the NAV of units under the scheme. There could also be movements in the scheme’s NAV due to changes

in interest rates, marco economic and political developments and over longer periods during market downturns.

Risk Factors

The Scheme invests in the stocks comprising the index regardless of their investment merit. The Mutual Fund does not attempt to take defensive

positions in declining markets.

As the scheme proposes to invest not less than 90% of the net assets in securities comprising of BSE SENSEX, any deletion of stocks from or

addition to in BSE SENSEX may require sudden and immediate liquidation or acquisition of such stocks at the prevailing market prices irrespective

of whether valuation of stocks is attractive enough. This may not always be in the interest of unitholders.

The scheme will attract provisions of take over regulations, if it invests in more than 10% of the paid up capital of a company and therefore may

not be able to accept further subscriptions.

The performance of the SENSEX will have a direct bearing on the performance of the scheme. Hence any composition change by virtue of

weightage or stocks selection will have an impact on the scheme.

Though Kotak Sensex ETF is proposed to be listed on the stock exchange, there is no assurance that an active secondary market will develop

or be maintained.

Tracking error may have an impact on the performance of the scheme. However KMAMC will endeavour to keep the tracking error as low

as possible.

Investors may note that even though this is an open-ended scheme, they will have to buy or sell units of the scheme on the stock exchanges

where these units are listed for liquidity at the market price, subject to the rules and regulations of the exchange. Buying and selling units on

stock exchange requires the investor to engage the services of a broker and are subject to payment of margins as required by the stock

exchange/broker, payment of brokerage, securities transactions tax and such other costs.

Why invest in an Index?

“Over the past 35 years, American business has delivered terrific results. It should therefore

have been easy for investors to earn juicy returns: All they had to do was piggyback

Corporate America in a diversified, low-expense way. An index fund that they never

touched would have done the job. Instead many investors have had experiences ranging

from mediocre to disastrous.”

“By periodically investing in a low cost index fund, a know-nothing investor can actually

outperform most investment professionals.”

-Warren Buffet

Statutory:

The market price of ETF units, like any other listed security, is largely dependent on two factors, viz., (1) the intrinsic value of the unit (or NAV),

and (2) demand and supply of units in the market. Sizeable demand or supply of the units in Exchange may lead to market price of the units to

quote at premium or discount to NAV. However since the eligible investors can transact with the AMC for units beyond the creation unit size

there should not be a significant variance from the NAV. Hence the price of ETF is less likely to hold significant variance (large premium or

discount) from the latest declared NAV all the time.

Capital Gains Impact: Investors who trade in Kotak Sensex ETF may be subject to Long Term Capital Gains or Short Term Capital Gains. Investors

are requested to consult their tax/legal consultants before investing in the scheme.

The units will be issued only in demat form through depositories. The records of the depository are final with respect to the number of units

available to the credit of unit holder. Settlement of trades, repurchase of units by the mutual fund depends up on the confirmations to be

received from depository (ies) on which the mutual fund has no control.
