Dear Chandrakant, If u don`t require money now plz. let it remain there. In all probability either u r below than what u have paid thru prem. in last 3 years or just on break even.

If u opt to partial withdraw, it`s tax free but it `ll bring down ur fund value 7 accordingly the charges `ll be recovered from ur reduced fund value so ur remaining fund `ll deplete very fast.

As only 3 years have completed, surrender of policy `ll invite Tax on full money u r receiving from policy. As the surrendered amount `ll be added to ur income from all other sources & taxed accordingly.

Thanks

Dear Mitesh, As on date u hold a total 70 shares of RIL. out of which 30 shares r more than 1 year old, hence if u opt to sell these shares @ Ex bonus rate, ur LTC losses `ll be ignored as rightly pointed out by dear Subasu.

For ur remaining 40 shares of 8 months holding if u opt to sell these shares @ Ex bonus price, the loss `ll be STCL & u can adjust this loss against ur STCG of 1L Rs. To bring down ur Tax liability on ur STCG of 1L Rs. u may adopt this bonus share selling method to other share also where bonus is due or may be call within next few days.

Thanks

capital gains

Posted by : mit_esh

i am holding 30 RIL shares sincelast 2 years @2585/share and another 40 @1600 since last 8months.i have short term capital gain of 1lacs and long term capital loss of 50000 from other shares transaction during current year.
what strategies i shall adopt vis-a-vis these ril shares to reduce my tax liabilities on short term capital gain? can i carry forward long term capital loss?

26 Nov 2009 00:03

Dear friends. as the NCDs r listed on Exchange & if u want to sell it, the gains if any `ll be treated as STCG (as u r selling b4 completion of 1 year) & u `ll be taxed accordingly.

Thanks

TAX TREATMENT- LISTED NCDS

Posted by : Guest

What would be tax treatment for Tata NCDs sold before completion of one year???

Dear Zapper, Redeem from following funds.

DSP Tiger
K- Opp.
K-30
HSBC Eq.
Sund. Select Focus

Ur remaining funds `ll be -
BSL Fr`line
HDFC Top 200
DSP Top 100
Rel. Growth
The first 3 r large dcap oriented funds & Rel. Growth is a midcap fund. So there is scope for addition of multicap funds like DSP Eq. & Rel. RSF Eq.

From ur total redemption amount, invest in DSP Eq. & REl. RSF Eq. as well as top up in above 3 large cap funds.

After all the adjustment ur total funds `ll be 6. Which is a good no. to observe & follow the performance.

thanks

Dear Srivatsa, In ur planning, I have a problem.

Ur current age is 30Y.
Expected Ret. age is 45Y.

It means u have only 15 years to accumulate corpus.

Now due to medical science`s advancement, ur life expectancy is already more than 75Y. It means u `ll live a minimum of 30 years on ur ret. corpus.

Do u feel within next 15 years u `ll be able to accumulate the corpus which `ll be able to generate Tax as well as inflation adjusted returns for next 30-35Y?

Think again regarding ur decision of retiring @ 45Y. In my view, at least extend it by 10 years for ur age 55.

The approach taken by dear pcspune is excellent.

Thanks

Dear C M Naik, From ur post, i feel u want to transfer money (u r using shares to transfer money) from ur hand to ur wife`s hand & later on u `ll use this money to generate taxable/non taxable income under ur wife`s name.

This way u want to avoid Tax liability (as & when it occurs) if u use the share sell money under ur own name to invest in FDs or STCGs etc.

Since the holding period is already more than 1 year, there is no problem on taxation front. For ur own good, it`s advisable to prepare a gift deed on a plain paper to avoid future problems.

thanks

Dear friend, In ur post it`s not clear that u r in immediate requirement of money or u want it after a gap of some years say 5-6 years.

The way as suggested by dear PCSPune is excellent but the only problem, it `ll require time to execute in full & from ur post, time frame is not clear.

Plz. post more details.

Thanks

Regular Income / Dividend

Posted by : Guest

I will like to invest money in some safe instrument (not bank fixed deposit) to generate a regular income on monthly basis.

What is the best option. Although there are POMIS, MIP (dividend not guaranteed) etc., yet will like to know better options. Are there any debt / equity funds which declare regular dividend. I have noticed Bharti AXA Equity has declared total 40% dividend in last few months.

Suggest.

Dear MIK, Plz. note in case of MF as well as shares FIFO (First In First Out) method is used.

So in ur case, the AMC is at fault. Plz. inform them with all the details & ask them to rectify the problem.

I hope in all probability u `ll get ur money back.

Thanks

Wrong units switched

Posted by : m_i_khilji

Dear Members,

I invested in HDFC Growth(G).
Out of total units, I switched 30.088 units to HDFC Prudence and Top 200 last month.

I calculated the units bought and come out with 198.202 units completed 1 year from the remaining units.
I redeemed 198.202 units yesterday. But, I was amazed to see that rather than those units which completed 1 year, units bought in Jan/Feb-2009 were redeemed, due to which there was TDS done of 318 Rs.

Please suggest.

regards,
MIK

Dear arinshare,

It depends on your other funds.
If you have some other large cap fund in your portfolio, then you should go for DSPBR Equity.
If this will be one and only fund in your portfolio, then you should go for BSL Frontline. (I don`t know, why you have to select from these 2 funds only).

regards,
MIK...

Dear All,

I have Rs. 1000 for investment in MF through monthly SIP for next at least 10 years and there is one choice between Birla Sun life Frontline Equity (G) and DSPBR Equity (G).
Please suggest me which will be correct pick and why?

25 Nov 2009 15:52

Dear arinshare
Birla Sunlife Frontline Equity is a conservative large cap fund where DSPBR Equity is a multicap fund. Choice between these two depends upon the fact which other funds are there in your portfolio. performncewise, both are excellent funds.

As long term capital gains are tax free, long term capital losses on share transactions cannot be carried forward and will be ignored.

You will have to pay tax on short term capital gains at the special rate of 15.45% for current year, unless you can make some strategic short term losses amounting to Rs. 1 lakh so that the tax outgo is nil. Do you have other shares purchased after December 2008 where you can book some losses. Please make a calculation taking into account the tax outgo of Rs. 15,450 on the STG of Rs. 1 lakh and decide....

Dear Feroz,
Interest rates may move up shortly and so it is not advisable to go for longer duration debt funds. Opt for short term debt funds or better still dynamic funds like Birla Sunlife Dynamic fund is best suited for now.
