Geojit Credits, a non-banking financial company, on Monday announced the launch of ‘Loan Against Mutual Fund’ (LAMF). Through this, investors can avail of quick and hassle-free loans starting from Rs 10,000 in the 100 per cent digital mode.
MF investors are often forced to redeem their investments for instant liquidity and meet their short-term requirements.

Investors will retain the ownership of their mutual funds and earn returns on them, but they cannot redeem the units till the loan is closed,” Geojit Credits said in a statement.
Investors can avail of the loan anytime, and the loan amount will be credited to their registered bank account within a few hours. Investors can repay their loan amount without incurring any prepayment or foreclosure charges. Geojit Credits’ loan against mutual funds interest rate starts from just 8.99 per cent per annum. The interest would be charged only on the amount utilised by investors and for the loan duration.
Bejoy Anthraper, business head of Geojit Credits, said, “The need for short-term liquidity of money is growing as demand is picking up and digital transactions are expanding rapidly.
