Mutual fund investments with KYC are mandatory in India

In India, MF investing without KYC is largely a myth. KYC is mandatory and regulated by SEBI's anti money laundering rules and investor identification norms. There's a Rs 50,000 exemption rule, but many platforms and fund houses don't offer it, and even if they do, it's operationally messy. Investing without KYC risks restricted choices, future problems, and delayed dividend & redemption proceeds.
