Birla Bond Index Fund

Type of Scheme Open-end Income Scheme

Investment Objective The scheme proposes to track the CRISIL Composite Bond Index, which has been introduced by CRISIL to track the returns on a Composite Por tfolio thatincludes call instruments, Commercial Papers, Government Securities, AAA and AA rated instruments. Because it is not practical or cost effective for the fundto invest in each and every security in the index, the fund will aim to invest in a sample which is an adequate representation of the key characteristics of theindex such as market sector weightings, coupon rates, credit quality and maturity. The Fund may invest a par t of its assets outside the Index, in papers whosecharacteristics and risks-including maturity, credit quality, and issuer type are similar to those of the papers in the Index.

Asset Allocation Pattern The asset allocation (as a % of net assets) of the portfolio under normal circumstances will replicate the constituent weights of the CRISIL Compositeof the scheme Bond Index. The scheme may also invest upto 20% of its assets in securitised instruments provided that such investment is in line with the investment

objectives.

The loss so ignored shall be treated as cost of acquisition of such bonus units.

6. Under Section 88 (2) (xiiib) of the Act subscriptions made out of income chargeable to tax by an individual or HUF in the approved Schemes including Equity LinkedSavings Scheme, up to an amount not exceeding Rs.10,000 will qualify for rebate in the proportion mentioned in the section.

7. As per the provisions of section 194K and 196A of the Act where any income is credited or paid on or after April 1,2003 by a mutual fund, no tax is required to bededucted at source.

Under Section 195 of the Act, the Mutual Fund is required to deduct tax at source at the rate of 20% (plus applicable surcharge ) on any long term capital gains ifthe payee Unitholder is a non-resident.
