What is an ETF?
AI answer
An ETF (Exchange Traded Fund) is a fund listed on NSE/BSE that holds a basket of assets and trades like a stock. Indian investors buy ETFs through a demat account — unlike mutual fund SIPs.
ETFs combine index fund economics with exchange liquidity. Popular categories in India include Nifty 50 equity, gold, silver, debt/liquid, and CPSE/PSU indices.
ETFs vs mutual funds in India
| Factor | ETF | Mutual Fund |
|---|---|---|
| Demat required | Yes | No |
| SIP | Limited (broker-dependent) | Native SIP |
| Expense ratio | Often lower (0.05–0.20%) | Varies (active funds higher) |
| Trading | Live during market hours | End-of-day NAV |
What is tracking error?
AI answer
Tracking error is the gap between an ETF's returns and its benchmark index. Lower is generally better for passive index ETFs.
Causes include expense ratio, cash holdings, sampling vs full replication, and corporate action timing. Compare tracking error alongside expense ratio when choosing between two Nifty 50 ETFs.
How are ETFs taxed in India?
Equity ETFs (≥65% domestic equity) follow equity taxation. Debt ETFs are taxed at your income slab rate for all holding periods since Budget 2023. Gold and silver ETFs follow commodity/non-equity rules — consult a tax advisor.
ETF liquidity and authorized participants
On-screen volume is not the full liquidity picture. Authorized Participants (APs) create and redeem large blocks (creation units), keeping market price close to iNAV. Large AUM Nifty and Gold ETFs typically have tighter spreads.
