proceeds may be credited to the bank account of the investor if the investor so instructs, subject to the AMC having necessary
arrangements with the bank
All payments will be made, in favour of the registered holder of the units or, if there is more than one registered holder, in favour of
the first-named registered holder as determined by reference to the original application for Units
To safeguard the interests of the unit holders from loss or theft of their redemption cheques, the details of their bank account will be
printed on the redemption cheques (wherever available). Investors are required to provide the name of their bank, branch address and
account type & number in the Application form
Payment instruments will be sent to the investor with reference to the data submitted in the application for Units at the investor’s risk.

discharge of the obligation of the Fund, Trustee and the AMC. The Fund, Trustee or the AMC will not be responsible for any
delay/non-receipt of redemption proceeds where it is attributable to any incorrect/incomplete information provided by the investor.
The Fund/ Trustee/AMC will also not be liable for any loss on account of fraudulent encashment of the redemption cheque
Payment through electronic modes
The redemption proceeds or dividend may also be paid through various modes of electronic payments such as Electronic Clearing
System (ECS)/Real Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) /National Electronic Fund Transfer (NEFT)/Direct Credit (DC), which offers
various benefits such as reduction in transit delays, loss of payment instrument in transit, protection against fraudulent encashment etc
Where the requisite information pertaining to the unit holder’s bank account is available with the Fund, the Mutual Fund/AMC may,
at its discretion, endeavour to credit the redemption processed/dividend directly to the Unitholder’s bank account instead of issuing a
payment instrument. The investors are requested to provide their bank’s Indian Financial System code (IFSC) for Real Time Gross
Settlement (RTGS) or National Electronic Fund Transfer (NEFT) and/or Magnetic Ink Character Recognition (MICR) code for
Electronic Clearing System (ECS)
22
Investors are requested to note that RTGS and NEFT codes may be different for the same bank/branch. Please contact your bank for
the details of the same. The Fund, Trustee or the AMC will not be responsible for any delay/non-receipt of electronic payment where
it is attributable to any incorrect/incomplete information provided by the investor
RTGS/NEFT/ECS are facilities offered by Reserve Bank of India (RBI), for facilitating better customer service by direct credit of
dividend/redemption to an investor’s bank account through electronic credit. This helps in avoiding loss of dividend/redemption
warrant in transit or fraudulent encashment. It may be noted that there is no commitment from the Mutual Fund that this facility will
be made available to the Unitholders for payment of dividend/redemption proceeds. While the Mutual Fund will endeavour in
arranging the facility it will be dependent on various factors including sufficient demand for the facility from Unitholders at any centre,
as required by the authorities. Payments made through ECS/RTGS/NEFT/DC are subject to applicable rules and policies of RBI and
the working of banking system
Any charges levied by the investor’s bank for receiving payment through ECS/RTGS/NEFT/DC will be borne by the investor. The
Mutual Fund/AMC will not accept any request for refund of such bank charges
In cases where such a facility is not available or if the facility is discontinued by the Scheme for any reason or if the Mutual Fund/AMC
is not able to credit the funds to the Unit holder’s bank account for any reason, the AMC shall despatch to the unit holders a payment
instrument. The Mutual Fund/AMC, however, reserve the right to issue a payment instrument despite of an investor opting for
Electronic Payout
(vii) Unambiguous and Unconditional Requests
All application for redemption, purchase or exchange or any other instruction must be correct, complete, clear and unambiguous in all
respects and should conform to the prescribed procedure/documentation requirements, failing which the Trustee/AMC reserve the
right to reject the same and in such a case the Trustee/AMC will not be responsible for any consequence therefrom. The Investor shall
ensure that any overwriting or correction shall not be made in any requests. Further, any requests for purchase/redemption/switch or
other transactions must be unconditional. The Fund/Trustee/AMC shall not be bound to take cognizance of any conditions placed on
the transaction request and may at its sole discretion, reject such transaction request, or process the same as if the condition were not
mentioned
Applications that are incomplete or inaccurate or ambiguous or conditional are termed as ‘Not in Good Order’ (NIGO). Any NIGO
applications shall be rejected by the AMC/Mutual Fund/Trustees. All applications are accepted “Subject to Verification”. Applications
can be therefore rejected at the counter itself, or subsequently at the time of a good order review either at the branch or at the back
office
(viii) Joint Applicants
In the event an Account has more than one registered owner, the first-named holder (as determined by reference to the original
Application Form) shall receive the Account Statements, all notices and correspondence with respect to the Folio/Account, as well as
the proceeds of any Redemption requests or dividends or other distributions. The Fund shall have no liability in this regard to any
account holder other than the first named holder of Units. In addition, such first-named Unitholders shall have the voting rights, as
permitted, associated with such Units, as per the applicable guidelines
Applicants can specify the ‘mode of holding’ in the application form as ‘Joint’ or ‘Any one or Survivor’. In the case of holding
specified as ‘Joint’, redemptions would have to be signed by all joint holders in the same order as registered with the Mutual Fund.
However, in cases of holding specified as ‘Anyone or Survivor’, any one of the Unitholder will have the power to make redemption
requests, without it being necessary for all the Unit holders to sign. However, in all cases, the proceeds of the Redemption will be paid
only to the first-named holder

A. INTRODUCTION
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has outlined investment valuation norms and accounting policies under SEBI
(Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996 (the Regulations) as amended from time to time. The Investment Valuation Norms are
prescribed in the Eighth Schedule of the Regulations (Regulation 47) and circulars issued by SEBI from time to time. Further,
SEBI has amended Regulation 47 and the Eight Schedule vide a gazette notification dated February 21, 2012 and has introduced
overriding guiding principles in the form of “Principles of Fair Valuation”. The amended regulation requires that Mutual Funds
shall follow principles of fair valuation to minimize the difference in valuation of mutual fund assets relative to market values
and also to enable fair treatment across all classes of investors i.e. existing investors as well as investors seeking to subscribe or
redeem units. It further prescribes that the valuation of investments shall be based on the principles of fair valuation i.e. the
valuation shall be reflective of the realizable value of securities / assets. The valuation shall be done in good faith and in a true
and fair manner through appropriate valuation policies and procedures as approved by the Board of the asset management
25
company. The amendment also states that in case of any conflict between the principles of fair valuation and valuation guidelines
as per Eighth Schedule and circulars issued by SEBI, the Principles of Fair Valuation shall prevail. This Policy reflects the guiding
principles to ensure fair valuation of all securities under the Schemes to comply with the amended Regulation 25 (19), 47and the
Eight Schedule relating to valuation of investments
D. VALUATION METHODOLOGIES
1. The valuation of investment shall be based on the guiding principles of fair valuation
2. Where it is observed that Valuation methodology mentioned below, does not lead to fair valuation of securities, Valuation
Committee may on a prospective basis deviate from the defined methodology and adopt such alternate procedures /
methods in conformance with the guiding principles of fair valuation in good faith to arrive at the true and fair estimation
of the realizable value of the security. The rationale for any such deviations would be recorded in writing and placed
before the Board of Directors of the AMC and the Trustee
3. Valuation price of the Security; arrived as per the policy; shall be applied consistently across the portfolios. In other words;
any particular security shall be valued at same price across all the portfolios and it cannot have different prices for valuation
on a particular day
4. The methodologies for valuing different type of securities are mentioned below
E. VALUATION METHODOLOGIES
1. Debt, Money Market and related securities-All debt, money market and related securities with residual maturity <= 60
days:-
All traded investments are valued at price derived from the weighted average Yield to Maturity (YTM) of the traded
security for the day. All non-traded investments are valued at amortised price which is computed on straight line basis
using the last valuation price so long as their valuation remains within ±0.10% band of the price derived from the reference
rate provided by CRISIL Limited (CRISIL) and ICRA Management Consulting Services Ltd (IMACS). In case of
amortized value falling outside the above band, the YTM of the asset is adjusted in order to bring the price within the
±0.10% band with suitable justification
2. Debt, Money Market and related securities -All debt, money market and related securities with residual maturity > 60
days :-
All debt, money market and related securities with residual maturity > 60 days. All traded and non-traded investments are
valued at average of scrip level prices provided by CRISIL & IMACS for individual securities. In case CRISIL & IMACS
are unable to provide Scrip level prices for the investments due to unavailability of market inputs such as - trades, polls
and primary issuances for securities, the securities will be valued at face value or at their effective yield, as determined
appropriate by the Investment Manager
3. Investment in Reverse Repo, Collateralised Borrowings and Lending Obligations (CBLO) and Bills Rediscounting
(BRDS):
Investment in Reverse Repo’s, CBLO’s and BRDS are valued at cost plus accrued interest

Revision In Know Your Customer (KYC) Procedure
Investors may kindly note that pursuant to SEBI Circular No. MIRSD/ Cir-26/ 2011 dated December 23, 2011, SEBI (KYC
Registration Agency) Regulations, 2011 and SEBI Circular No.MIRSD/SE/Cir-21/2011 dated October 5, 2011, regarding uniformity
in the Know Your Customer (KYC) process in the securities market and development of a mechanism for centralization of the KYC
records to avoid duplication of KYC Process across the intermediaries in the securities market, with effect from January 1, 2012
(1) SEBI has introduced a common KYC Application Form for all the SEBI registered intermediaries viz. Mutual Funds, Portfolio
Managers, Depository Participants, Stock Brokers, Venture Capital Funds, Collective Investment Schemes, etc. Investors are
therefore requested to use the common KYC Application Form and carry out the KYC process including In-Person Verification
(IPV) with any SEBI registered intermediaries including mutual funds. The KYC Application Forms are also available on our
website www.ilfsinfrafund.com
(2) The Mutual Fund shall perform the initial KYC of its investors and may undertake enhanced KYC measures commensurate with
the risk profile of its investors. The Mutual Fund shall upload the details of the investors on the system of the KYC Registration
Agency (KRA). Registrar & Transfer Agent (RTA) of the Mutual Fund may also undertake the KYC of the investors on behalf
of the Mutual Fund. KRA shall send a letter to the investor within 10 working days of the receipt of the initial/updated KYC
documents from the Mutual Fund, confirming the details thereof
(3) Once the investor has done KYC with a SEBI registered intermediary, the investor need not undergo the same process again with
another intermediary including mutual funds. However, the Mutual Fund reserves the right to carry out fresh KYC/additional
KYC of the investor
(4) It is mandatory for intermediaries including mutual funds to carry out In-Person Verification (IPV) of its new investors from
January 1, 2012. The IPV carried out by any SEBI registered intermediary can be relied upon by the Mutual Fund. IL&FS Infra
Asset Management Limited and NISM/AMFI certified distributors who are KYD compliant are authorised to undertake the IPV
for Mutual Fund investors. Further, in case of any applications received directly (i.e. without being routed through the distributors)
from the investors, the Mutual Fund may rely upon the IPV (on the KYC Application Form) performed by the scheduled
commercial banks

of all investment applications by investors made on or after the Effective Date

of India (UIDAI) shall be admissible as Proof of Address in addition to its presently being recognized as Proof of Identity. In
consultation with Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) and the market participants, it has now been decided to accept e-
KYC service launched by UIDAI also, as a valid process for KYC verification. The information containing relevant client details and
photograph made available from UIDAI as a result of e-KYC process shall be treated as sufficient proof of Identity and Address of
the client. However, the client shall have to authorize the intermediary to access his data through UIDAI system
Please refer to the paragraph “How to apply” for the process to complete KYC formalities
