Hi, If you are investing in an Arbitrage fund for less than 1 year, and if you redeem within 12 months, any gains (capital gains) realized are not tax-free.
  • The capital gain tax rate of 15% is applicable on Short Term Capital Gains of Arbitrage Fund.
The other two points are correct. Kindly read : https://www.relakhs.com/best-arbitrage-funds-returns/ https://www.relakhs.com/emergency-fund-importance/
