A folio number is the unique investor ID that lets you view units held, current value, SIP status, and past transactions in one place. This guide covers every method and where to find your folio number if you've misplaced it.

फोलियो नंबर क्या है?
A folio number is a unique identification number assigned to each investor account with a mutual fund house. It works like a bank account number, grouping all your investments and transactions with a particular AMC under one reference.
When you invest with a fund house for the first time, the AMC creates a folio and issues this number. Every SIP, lump-sum purchase, redemption, or switch under that fund house links back to it. The number stays with you across schemes from the same AMC, unless you deliberately open a new folio.
Why the Folio Number Matters
Here is why your folio number matters:
- Transaction tracking – records each purchase, redemption, switch, and dividend under one account
- KYC and identity link – ties to your verified KYC and PAN, preventing application rejection from name mismatches
- SIP management – lets you view, pause, or stop a running SIP and check whether an instalment has been debited
- Multiple schemes in one place – several schemes from the same AMC can sit under one folio
- Statement downloads – account statements, capital gains reports, and IDCW summaries are generated folio-wise
- टैक्स रिपोर्टिंग – folio-level capital gains statements simplify reporting short-term and long-term gains
Five Ways to Check Your Status
You can check status using five main methods, depending on where your investments are held: through the AMC's website or app, through CAMS, through KFintech, through a Consolidated Account Statement (CAS), or through your broker or customer care.
Via the AMC's website or app. Log in with your registered PAN, folio number, or email, verified by OTP. Go to the portfolio or holdings section, select your folio, and view current NAV, units held, invested amount, present value, SIP status, and transaction history. Most AMC apps let you download a folio statement instantly.
Via CAMS. CAMS is a registrar servicing a large group of AMCs, including HDFC, ICICI Prudential, and SBI. Visit camsonline.com, choose single-folio or consolidated statement, enter your registered email, set a password to encrypt the file, and submit. The statement arrives by email listing units, current value, and transaction history.
Via KFintech. KFintech (formerly Karvy) services AMCs including Axis, Nippon India, UTI, and Mirae. Its KFinKart app and web portal let you log in with PAN, folio, or email, view a portfolio dashboard across multiple folios, link family folios, and track NAV history.
Via a Consolidated Account Statement (CAS). A CAS shows all your mutual fund holdings across every AMC in one document, useful when investments span both CAMS and KFintech. Visit either registrar's consolidated statement page, enter your registered email, set a password, and open the encrypted statement from your inbox. Note that a CAS may not fully reflect demat holdings, so check with your depository participant for those.
Via your broker or customer care. On a broker platform like 5paisa, log in, open the mutual funds section, and view all folios with live value, units, and SIP status together, with statements downloadable for tax records. For assisted support, you can also call or email the AMC or registrar with your folio number, or visit the nearest branch with a photo ID.
Where to Find Your Folio Number
Your folio number rarely stays truly lost, check these sources:
- Account statement – printed near your name and address
- CAS – lists each folio alongside the matching AMC
- AMC app or website – shown on the holdings screen after login
- Email and SMS – transaction confirmations carry the folio number
- Broker dashboard – platforms like 5paisa display the folio against each holding
If you still can't trace it, contact the AMC or registrar with your PAN and registered email for retrieval after identity verification.
