New Delhi, August 11

Franklin Templeton Mutual Fund (MF) on Wednesday said it has returned over Rs 21,000 crore to unit holders of six shuttered debt schemes to date. This amounts to 84% of assets under management (AUM) as of April 23, 2020, when the fund house announced to shut its six debt mutual fund schemes, citing redemption pressures and lack of liquidity in the bond market.

Further, cash to the tune of Rs 1,111 crore was available for distribution as of July 31, Franklin Templeton Asset Management (India) Pvt Ltd president Sanjay Sapre said in a letter to investors. — PTI

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
