mandatory disclosure of mutual fund expenses enhances investor transparency

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has mandated mutual fund houses to disclose total recurring expenses separately for direct and regular plans, enhancing transparency in fund management fees. Introduced in 2012, direct plans, which bypass distributors, have lower expense ratios than regular plans, leading to differing returns. SEBI also requires separate disclosures of returns for both plans over specified periods.
