HDFC Asset Management Company (down over 8 per cent) and Reliance Nippon Life Asset Management (down over 11 per cent) lost ground on Wednesday, a day after the capital markets regulator Sebi announced major changes to the fee structure for the Rs 25-trillion mutual fund (MF) industry, a decision that will hit the profits of asset management companies (AMCs) but result in savings for investors.
