sachin410 asked 9 years ago
Hi Sree, I have the following queries ? 1. For NIL tax on LT capital gains on Liquid fund, the lock in period is 36 months. Is my understanding correct ? 2. If Yes, then ELSS clearly provides much better returns for a period of 3 years than liquid funds. Why one should invest in Liquid funds at all if he / she doesn’t want to do tax calculations(in case of redemption before 36 months) for liquid funds redemption. Best Regards Sachin

Hi, 1 & 2 - Three year period is correct but the LTCG on debt funds are subject to taxes.
