Mutual fund folio number: what it is and where to find it
A folio is the account a fund house keeps for you, and its number identifies your holdings there. You will need it for requests such as updating details or redeeming through the fund house.
What a folio is
When you first invest with a fund house, it opens a folio under your PAN and gives it a number. Later purchases in that fund house's schemes can go into the same folio, though some investors end up with several, for example after investing through different apps or joint holders.
Where to find it
A detailed CAS groups every fund by folio and prints the folio number above each fund's transactions. It also appears in the confirmation emails and account statements from the fund house or registrar.
Why you may have several
A different holder order, a different bank account or a separate sign-up can each open a new folio, even with the same fund house. Each folio appears separately on the CAS.

Common questions
Is the folio number the same as my PAN?
No. The PAN is yours across all funds; the folio number belongs to one fund house's record of you.
Can I have more than one folio with a fund house?
Yes. Different holders, banks or sign-ups can each open a separate folio.
How do I find a folio I have forgotten?
Request a CAS with your PAN; it lists all the folios under it.
