How to read this table. Figures are the annual trail commission (% p.a.) paid by the AMC on the daily/monthly average assets, shown year by year (Yr 1 to Yr 5 onwards / perpetual). Figures in amber mark a year where the rate steps down from the first-year rate. Unless an AMC is marked "incl.", rates shown are the base commission excluding 18% GST — GST is paid over-and-above only to GST-registered distributors. Rates apply to Regular Plans only and are as per each AMC's structure for the period noted against it. AMCs revise these rates periodically (usually quarterly), so the live authoritative figures always remain those in the AMC's own current brokerage sheet.
