These are called equity-linked savings schemes &#8211; ELSS. They have a compulsory holding period of three years, and the returns made at the end of the lock-in duration are considered long-term capital appreciation. If the returns are over 1 lakh rs, a tax of 10% will be deducted.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any fund that makes this possible by assisting you in investing in equity-linked savings schemes is called an ELSS fund. It is defined as an equity-inclined fund that permits individuals to invest in equity or related securities and make full use of tax deductions on the original amount. This tax deduction is as per section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 2013, which permits individuals to be exempted from tax until rupees 1.5 lacs are applicable on annual taxable income.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These funds have a significant portion of their asset allocation towards equity or equity-related instruments. Many tax-paying citizens have turned to ELSS for tax deduction benefits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_features_of_ELSS\"><\/span>What are the features of ELSS?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Up to 150,000 rupees of tax deduction of what you invest in an ELSS fund from your yearly taxable income under section 80C of the Income Tax Act, 2013. Even though only a predetermined limited amount is deductible (150,000 INR), one can always invest more if the scheme is going well or if they want to.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 There is a minimum lock-in period, which means that you mandatorily have to keep your funds invested for a minimum of 3 years. There are no provisions for a way out of that rule (for a premature exit). However, there is not a set rule on how long the money should be invested in the scheme after the holding period of 3 years.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Any amount can be invested in an ELSS fund as there is no cap.
