With eCAN, investors can fill the CAN registration data online on MFU Website (www.mfuindia.com) and submit electronically. The required proof documents can also be submitted electronically, by using an upload link provided for the purpose. 

The CAN number will be allotted instantly. eCAN is also made available in the form of API, to enable distributors / advisors to facilitate creation of CAN for their clients online.

New Investors can also make use of the eCAN option to fill and submit the CAN registration data online to get the CAN Number allotted instantly and later submit a signed CAN form with necessary documents later to their intermediaries or at any of the MFU Point of Service (POS).
