New Delhi [India], November 25 (ANI): Kotak Mutual Fund has cautioned all its investors, partners and the public at large regarding the fraudulent Telegram and social media groups and communities that promise huge amounts of returns against their investment.

"Kotak Mutual Fund has only one official Telegram handle (https://t.me/kotakmutualfund) and it does not promise or misguide investors in any form or on any social platforms for abnormal earnings or returns while investing in mutual funds," it said in a statement on Friday.
Mutual Fund investments are subject to market risks and investors should read all scheme-related documents carefully before investing, the statement cautioned.
Furthermore, it requested the users and investors to report those fraudulent groups on Telegram in case they come across to abuse@telegram.org or write to at mutual@kotak.com.
