Which of the following best describes the Net Asset Value of a scheme?
A{'text': 'Face value of one unit issued today', 'label': 'A'}
B{'text': 'Original issue price of a unit in the NFO', 'label': 'B'}
C{'text': 'Fair worth per unit at current market prices', 'label': 'C'}
D{'text': 'Total assets minus sponsor initial stake', 'label': 'D'}
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. {'text': 'Fair worth per unit at current market prices', 'label': 'C'}
1. NAV is defined as the true worth of one unit of the scheme.
2. It equals the net realisable value per unit if all holdings were sold today.
3. Face value stays fixed at Rs. 10 and is unrelated to daily NAV changes.
4. NAV is computed daily using mark-to-market prices of scheme holdings.
