Purchase Orders
| Type of fund | Order placement on Groww (cut off) | Payment receipt on Fund House/AMC (cut off) | NAV applicability |
| Liquid / Overnight | 12:00 noon | 12:00 noon | Previous day |
| Liquid / Overnight | After 12.00 noon | After 12.00 noon | NAV of the day immediately preceding the next business day |
| All other funds | 2:00 pm | 2:00 pm | Same-day |
| All other funds | After 2.00 pm | After 2.00 pm | Next business day |
Note:
- Orders placed on Saturdays, Sundays, and other market/public holidays will be treated as orders placed on the next business day.
- In some cases, when you might make the purchase before the cut-off time, but funds are not received before the cut-off time, your order is placed on the next business day. Accordingly, you get the next business day NAV.
Redeem Orders and SWP Orders
The cut-off time for placing redeem orders is 3pm. Placing your redeem order before the cut-off time means you’ll get:
- NAV of the day immediately preceeding the next business day in case of liquid / overnight funds
- NAV of the same day in case of other funds
Note that OTP verification is now mandatory for processing your redeem/SWP orders. If your order is not verified with an OTP, the order will not be processed further by the fund house. Your NAV would be dependent on when the OTP is verified.
Switch and STP Orders
Switch and STP orders are a combination of purchase & redeem orders. Groww’s cut-off time for switch-out orders is 3 PM, and switch-in orders are processed only after the switch-out leg is settled. So, NAV for switch-in orders is determined only after the switch-out order is processed.
Note that OTP verification is now mandatory for processing your switch/STP orders. If your order is not verified with an OTP, the order will not be processed further by the fund house. Your NAV would be dependent on when the OTP is verified.

What Will Change for My SIP Orders?
There are primarily two ways to pay for a SIP instalment: AutoPay and BSE Mandates. Here’s how the NAV and order completion dates will change after February 1, 2021:
AutoPay:
For investors with SIP on AutoPay, there will be no change in the applicable NAV date and order completion of your SIP orders.
BSE Mandates:
For investors with BSE mandates (Biller and One-time mandates), until now BSE was deducting the SIP instalment amount from your bank account directly on the SIP due date and the order completion was happening on T+1 day.
Due to the same-day NAV change implemented from February 1, 2021, the instalment amount will be deducted on T day by BSE and fund realization at BSE end is T+ 2/3 business days and the expected completion date for these orders will change from T+1 business days to T+ 4/5 business days from BSE end.
Hence, the order completion date and NAV date is pushed for all BSE mandates( Biller and One-time mandates).
| AutoPay | BSE Biller mandate | BSE One-time mandate | ||
| Previously | Expected NAV date | T | T | T |
| Expected order completion date | T+2 | T+2 | T+2 | |
| Now | Expected fund realization date | T (No change) | T+3 | T |
| Expected NAV date | T (No change) | T+4/5 | T | |
| Expected order completion date | T+2 (No change) | T+5/6 | T+2 |
Note:
• T is the transaction/due date for your SIP instalment.
- All the dates mentioned are working days. Any holiday/weekend in between will result in the extension of this date.
- These are only tentative dates by BSE and are subject to change.
How to find out whether my mandate is a BSE mandate( Biller and One-time mandate) or Autopay?
Here are a few steps to know which mandate you have:
- Go to the Profile section on the app
- Find the ‘My Account’ section
- Select Bank and Autopay
- You will see your verified bank account on the next page. Click on the bank.
- On the next screen, you will be able to see your account details and the mandate you have.
They will show up as follows:
Autopay Mandates
- Autopay via OTP
- Autopay via Form
BSE Mandates
- AutoPay via Biller
- AutoPay via One-time mandate
What are Cut-Off Timings in Mutual Funds?
Many investors get confused between trading hours and cut-off timings. While trading hours are the allotted periods for buying or selling mutual fund units, cut-off timings determine the Net Asset Value (NAV) at which you can buy or sell mutual fund units. Mutual fund cut off time is different for different types of funds.
For all funds except liquid funds, if you buy/invest in a mutual fund before the cut-off timing, you can receive the NAV of the same day.
In September, Sebi had added another clause. To get the same day’s NAV, your money should reach the AMC on the same day too. In case you made a transaction before the cut-off timing and due to some reason the money did not reach the fund house, you may get the next day’s NAV.
Happy Investing!
