Steps to check your KYC Status:
- Visit any Mutual Fund’s or Registrar & Transfer Agent’s (RTA) Website where you have an investment.
- Check for “KYC Status” link, if available.
- Enter your 10-digit PAN and Captcha and click on Submit.
- Your KYC Status will be displayed as ‘KYC Validated / KYC Registered / KYC On-Hold’.
What does each KYC status imply?
KYC Validated
- Relax! You have to do nothing at all!
- You can do any transaction in any mutual fund, anytime.
KYC Registered
- You can continue making transactions (like Purchases, Redemptions, Switches, SIPs, etc.) in all your existing Mutual Fund investments without any hassle.
- Only if you want to invest in a mutual fund where you don’t have any investment already, you will have to do your KYC once again.
- You can get your KYC status changed to ‘KYC Validated’ by doing the KYC Update/ KYC Modification process using PAN and Aadhaar from XML, Digi-locker or M-Aadhaar.
- The process to do this is simple, available on all Mutual Fund/RTA websites and takes few minutes to complete.
- Once your KYC status changes to Validated you can invest in any Mutual Fund of your choice without any requirement of re-KYC.
KYC On-Hold/Rejected
- The KYC status on the Mutual Fund /RTA website, will show the reason for ‘KYC On-Hold’/Rejected status; it could be: Mobile or Email not validated / PAN is not linked with Aadhaar / Deficiency in the KYC documents, etc.
- You simply have to remediate the reason for KYC On-Hold/Rejected by following the steps given on the Mutual Fund Website. Once your KYC status changes to Registered/Validated you will be all set to start transacting, as per the KYC status.
The steps to resolve any KYC issues are easy and can be done from the comfort of your home. In case of any difficulties, feel free to contact your intermediaries or KRAs office/ helpline (available on their website) for further assistance.
