Treatment of Amount invested in SIP for 5 years on maturity

239 views 2 replies
What if I invested Rs.12500/- in SIP every month for 5 years and claim deduction u/s 80C during the A.Y

What will be the treatment of the total amount invested in SIP when I redeem all units of Mutual fund after 6 years

Section 80C deduction is available only when any amount is invested in ELSS schemes of any MF; whether lump sum or SIP........

The amount invested gets lock-in for 3 years.......... so, you cannot redeem ELSS units within period of 3 years. (unless specific permission obtained from ITO)

So, whatever redemption amount you will get after 6 years will be of the units invested in first 3 years only, which will be totally tax-exempt..

I agree with Mr. Dhirajlal
