Equity Taxation benefits of benefit
LIC Mutual Fund Balanced Advantage Fund (LIC Rahul Singh portion MF Balanced Advantage Fund) of equity Yogesh Patil and debt portion will be the Fund Manager (Fund Manager). It is benchmarked against the customized index LIC MF Hybrid Composite 50:50 Index. In order to pass on the equity taxation benefits to investors, the fund’s target has to have a gross equity allocation of 65 per cent or more. However, in the last few years, Balanced Advantage Funds have been liked a lot by the people and there has been a boom in it.
When Redeem No Exit Load
Balanced Advantage Funds are preferred because asset management companies (AMCs) use derivatives to reduce their effective equity exposure to less than 65 per cent. At the same time, maintain the gross exposure at 65 percent or more. If an equity oriented mutual fund is redeemed after one year, investors are charged a 10 per cent tax on capital gains above Rs 1 lakh. Redemption before one year will attract an exit load of 1 per cent, which will be a charge over 12 per cent of the allotted units. There will be no exit load after completion of 12 months from the date of allotment.
“Will use it to switch from equity to debt”
LIC Mutual Fund CEO Dinesh Pangte said bond yields, in a way, represent the opportunity cost and risk appetite of investing in equities. We will use the inverse relationship between equity and debt in Balanced Advantage Fund to switch from equity to debt.
