LIC Mutual Fund’s official addendum archive lists a Risk-o-meter change notice dated 8 October 2026. A secondary listing associates that notice with LIC MF Short Term Fund and a change from Moderate to Low to Moderate, but the available official archive entry does not show the scheme name or the old and new labels. Treat the reported change as provisional until confirmed in the addendum itself.
What the notice says—and what is not yet confirmed
The official LIC MF addendum archive lists an entry dated 08-10-2026 titled “Change in the Risk-o-meter of the Designated Scheme of LIC Mutual Fund.” The archive entry confirms that a notice exists, but its displayed text does not identify the designated scheme, the prior and revised risk levels, or the dates used to assess the risk.

A secondary MFIC risk-o-meter changes listing associates LIC MF Short Term Fund, described there as Short Duration, with a move from Moderate to Low to Moderate, dated 6 October 2026. Because the underlying official addendum text is not available in the archive view, those details should not be treated as definitively verified. The 6 October date in the secondary listing is not established as the notice’s effective date or the portfolio evaluation date.

A Risk-o-meter is a disclosure of a scheme’s assessed risk level. A change in its label signals a change in that assessment; it does not promise a particular return, predict future performance, or guarantee that an investor’s capital is protected. The available notice information does not establish why the assessment changed, so it would be premature to infer a specific portfolio adjustment or a reduction in every type of risk.

How mutual funds disclose Risk-o-meter changes
SEBI’s retrieved consolidated standards say that mutual funds and asset management companies evaluate scheme and benchmark Risk-o-meters monthly. They disclose the assessment with the scheme’s portfolio disclosure within 10 days of month-end. When a Risk-o-meter changes, the standards describe communication through a notice-cum-addendum and email or SMS to scheme unitholders. See the SEBI consolidated standards.

What to check before acting on the reported change
- Read the official addendum and confirm that it names LIC MF Short Term Fund and specifies both the previous and revised labels.
- Check the assessment or portfolio date and the effective date stated in the notice; do not assume either is the same as the date shown by the secondary listing.
- For an investment decision, review the scheme’s current official documents and portfolio, including its investment objective, maturity or duration profile, credit and interest-rate risks, and expenses. A Risk-o-meter label alone is not a substitute for that review.
