The read

Baroda BNP Paribas is rationalising its fund roster. The Nifty SDL December 2026 Index Fund will fold into the December 2028 variant, and the Credit Risk Fund into the Short Duration Fund, effective August 21. Dissenting investors get a nearly month-long window from July 22 to August 20 to redeem or switch without exit load. After August 18, no new money can enter the merging schemes. For existing SIP/STP/SWP holders, the transitions are automatic. Routine consolidation; no market impact.
