With the financial year coming to an end, it is the time to begin your Tax Planning. With so many tax savings options in India, ELSS stands out the best because they offer benefits beyond tax savings.
ELSS or Equity Linked Saving Schemes comes with a lock-in period of 3 years, which is the shortest holding compared to all other tax savings. By Investing in ELSS, one can attain deductions upto INR 1,50,000 from their taxable Income as per the Section 80C of income tax Act. As, ELSS funds are equity diversified with a major portion of the fund being invested in equity & related products, they provide equity returns too. This means that investors can also earn equity returns on their investments.
Before we look at some of the other important features of this scheme, let’s check the best ELSS tax saving Mutual Funds for 2025 – 2026.
The other major benefits of ELSS are:
As per the Budget 2018, ELSS would attract Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG). Investors would be taxed at 10% (with no indexation) under long term Capital Gain tax. Gains up to INR 1 lakh are free of tax. Tax at 10% applies to gains above INR 1 lakh.
By taking a SIP route, investors can invest an amount as low as INR 500. This allows an individual to save money every month instead of a lump sum.
Since these mutual funds invest in equity-related instruments, the money you invest grows as the stock Market grows. So, the gains are high in ELSS Funds.
