Inception Reliance Growth Fund Reliance Growth Fund - Direct - Growth 1-Jan-13 34.00 24.82 NA 17.60

S&P BSE 100 21.17 12.27 NA 11.29Reliance Growth Fund - Growth (Regular Plan) 8-Oct-95 32.97 23.90 17.41 23.71

S&P BSE 100 21.17 12.27 12.29 11.30 Past performance may or may not be sustained in future and the same may

not necessarily provide the basis for comparison with other investment All the returns are of Growth Plan - Growth Option.

Returns less than 1 year are on absolute basis and more than or equal one year are on compounded annualised basis. Calculation assume that all payouts during the period have been reinvested in the units of the scheme at the then prevailing NAV.

Reliance Growth Fund – The Fund was launched on October 8, 1995, and focuses on companies in the mid-cap segment, while having some exposure to large-cap stocks. The Fund has a well established track record of over 20 years and has outperformed the benchmark consistently for all the time periods under consideration since inception.

Future Outlook - The Indian Mutual Fund industry is one of the fastest growing industries in the financial services sector with 41 AMCs currently operating in the country. The industry quarterly AAUM has changed with an absolute growth rate of 16% over last year with Rs. 18,29,534 crore of quarterly average assets as on March 31, 2017.

Your Company intends to aggressively pursue growth opportunities in the mutual fund industry both domestic and international and therefore be the most preferred investment choice for investors. Your Company expects that an emerging market like India would experience a sustained higher growth rate. Given the country’s high household savings rate along with the current low levels of investments by retail investors where only less than 3% of the household savings is channeled into capital markets, your Company believes that the Mutual Fund Industry is still in a nascent stage and has a huge opportunity for growth and expansion. Being one of the large players in the Industry, your Company will continue investing in growing the market size, achieving product innovation, educating the investors, increasing the distribution reach, enhancing customer service infrastructure with aggressive expansion strategies.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Reliance Growth Fund (“the Scheme”), which comprises the Balance Sheet as at March 31, 2017, the Revenue Account, the Cash Flow Statement for the year then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

The Managements of Reliance Capital Trustee Co. Limited and Reliance Nippon Life Asset Management Limited (Formerly Reliance Capital Asset Management Limited) (the “Investment Manager”) are responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and fair view of the financial position, financial performance and cash flow of the Scheme in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, including accounting policies and standards as specified in the Ninth Schedule of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996 and amendments thereto (“the Regulations”). This responsibility includes the maintenance of adequate accounting records for safeguarding the assets of the Scheme and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of internal control that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Scheme internal controls. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall

presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the financial statements.

Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the aforesaid financial statements give the information required by the Regulations and give a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India, of the state of affairs of the Scheme as at March 31, 2017, its Surplus and its cash flow for the year then ended.
