Yes, In case Trigger request is received after partial switch-out from the Original Invested amount in liquid scheme, then the said trigger will be actioned after fulfillment of the Original invested amount. Example: - Investor invested Rs.30,000/- on 1/2/2010 , and switched 5,000/- on 20/4/2010. Trigger request for appreciation is received for transaction (of 30,000/-) on 15/05/2010.

A Trigger will activate a transaction / alert when the event selected for has reached the value greater than/ equal to the specified particular value i.e. Trigger Point.
Eg: Mr. Z bought 5000 units at NAV of 11.00. If Mr. Z wants to switch all his units when the NAV reaches 15.00, he has to keep track of the NAV daily and then send a switch request within a stipulated time period for effecting the switch at the NAV of the intended day.
However, instead of keeping a track of the NAV everyday, Mr.ZA can set a Trigger: To switch all units when NAV is 13 or more. In this case, the AMC will keep track on behalf of Mr. Z and switch his units on the day when the NAV reaches 13 or more. Thus Trigger is useful in financial planning.
