Why did the mutual fund payment fail, and when will the refund be credited?
The mutual fund payment may fail due to multiple reasons. The failure message and reasons are mentioned in the below table:
UPI
Payment failure message | Reason |
Payment was unsuccessful as you could not pay with the UPI app within time. |
The message is displayed because the gateway request has a 5-minute active duration. If the client does not complete the payment within this time frame, the transaction is cancelled. |
Payment was unsuccessful as you could not complete it in time.
|
|
You may have cancelled the payment or there was a delay in response from the UPI app. |
This message is displayed because the payment request was either cancelled on the UPI app or the payment timed out. It occurs when the client attempts to make the payment after the 5-minute time limit has elapsed. |
Payment was unsuccessful due to a temporary issue. Any amount deducted will be refunded within 5-7 working days. |
This message is displayed because there was an error with the client's bank account. To proceed with the payment, clients are advised to use an alternative bank account. |

|
Your payment has been cancelled. Try again or complete the payment later. |
This message is displayed because the payment was not captured by the bank but forwarded to the payment gateway vendor. In such cases, clients are advised to check with their bank for further assistance. |

The message is displayed because the gateway request has a 5-minute active duration. If the client does not complete the payment within this time frame, the transaction is cancelled. If funds were debited from the bank account, they would be credited back. |

|

|
You've reached the maximum transaction limit for this account. Try another payment method or contact your bank. |

The funds will be refunded to the client's bank account within 5 working days, and an email notification will be sent to the client by ICCL once the payment is released.
Netbanking
Payments may also fail due to late authorisations. If the payment is debited from the client’s bank account and it is stuck with the bank or the payment aggregator because of a delay in response from the sponsor bank. Such payments get reversed to the client’s bank account the next day if it is not reported to ICCL. If it is reported, the payment is reversed after 5 days, and an email notification will be sent to the client.
NEFT/RTGS
Mutual fund payments through NEFT/ RTGS are directly credited to ICCL’s bank account. The orders are mapped on a FIFO basis. If the order is not mapped or if the order does not match the payment amount, the funds are reversed to the client’s bank account by T+4 day. Multiple orders can be mapped to one NEFT transfer. However, multiple transfers cannot be mapped to a single order.
eMandate
Mutual fund payments made through mandates fail if there are no funds in the bank account on the debit date. The bank would charge a penalty.
AMC Rejected Orders
If the AMC rejects the order where the payment was successfully made, the funds would be reversed by the AMC to ICCL after T+5 days. ICCL then credits the client's bank account with the funds.
