If you are withdrawing from an equity oriented scheme:

• If the withdrawals are within first year of investment - Short term capital gain will be applicable only on the gain/appreciation portion of the withdrawal amount
• If the withdrawals are after one year of investment – As per the prevailing tax rates, long-term capital gains on equity oriented funds are exempted from tax

However, please note that in the Union Budget 2018, it has been proposed to introduce Long Term Capital Gains (LTCG) on equity oriented mutual fund schemes. LTCG from sale of equity shares and equity mutual fund schemes are proposed to be taxed at 10%, if an individual’s total capital gains cross Rs1 lakh. Currently, there is no LTCG tax if one holds the equity mutual fund units for more than a year. The Union Budget 2018 has proposed that all gains up to January 31, 2018 will be grandfathered. Only the Gains that would arise after January 31, 2018 would be considered. Education Cess is also proposed to change to 4%.

Please consult your financial advisor/ tax advisor before taking any decision of investment.
