Fund Managers

Read from each scheme’s most recent Scheme Information Document, as filed with SEBI and published by AMFI. A manager is listed once per fund house. Because that disclosure is per scheme, one person is filed many times and the filings can disagree — each field shown is taken from their most recent document, and the bio is whichever of their filings carries the least of a neighbouring column.

Two gaps that leaves are filled from a second document: each fund house’s Statement of Additional Information, which states its key personnel once, in one table, rather than once per scheme. That is where the role and the total-experience figure come from — and where that table’s own columns garbled a role, by running a neighbouring number through it or welding the page heading onto its end, it is left blank rather than published. It also supplies a qualification or a bio wherever the scheme filings left one blank or left one that could not be right. It does not overwrite a value that already reads cleanly: an SAI is filed roughly once a year, so it is often the older of the two. An expanded row says which of its fields came from there.

A manager is also listed against a scheme when another of the same house’s filings names them on it: every SID must list the other schemes its managers run, which reaches 179 live schemes whose own document we do not hold. Those entries are shown with a dashed outline, and the list for such a scheme may be incomplete — only a manager who also appears in a filing we hold can be found that way.

Coverage is limited to schemes whose SID we hold and could read, so a fund manager with no row here is one whose filing we have not parsed rather than one who does not exist — and where a qualification or an experience is still missing, it is a cell both documents’ layouts defeated rather than something the manager lacks.
