Hi frend,
I don't think, a switchover to another fund in the same company would made u eligible to claim deduction u/s 80c.
"Sec 80C provides deduction in respect of specified qualifying amounts paid or deposited by the assessee in the previous year"
switching over to another fund doesnot amount to payment or deposit.
contrary views invited.......
