Best ELSS (Equity Linked Savings Scheme) - II

[indngr]

Re: Suggestions on ELSS...plsssssss

1. SBI Magnum Taxgain and Taxgain 93 are same schemes
2. There is no restriction on investing in Magnum Tax Gain 93, it is an open ended fund and will remain so.
3. The three schemes on my hit list are 1. Birla Taxsaver 2. DSP Taxsaver 3. Magnum Taxsaver not in any particular order. You may spread your exposure in these three funds as they continue to be in top five for quite a long time. I hope it will help you.
3.

Choose one amongst the two since both are Mid & Small cap heavy -
1. Birla Taxsaver
2. DSP Taxsaver

Hello

There are two funds in my list -

1. DSP-MLTax Saver Fund (D) = 15k
2. Birla Sun Life Tax Relief '96 = 15k

What you guys think about these two ELSS?

Second,
1. Principal Tax saving, or
2. Personal Tax Saver

Which one is good in between these two Principal ELSS?

Nitin

All the four funds mentioned by you are Mid & Samall cap heavy. Choose one amongst them.

For 2nd fund - Choose amongst Multi cap funds (SBI Mag Tax Gain OR Sundaram Tax saver).

Re: ELSS for long term

HDFC Taxsaver has not been doing well. You could consider Fidelity Tax Advantage instead. Also a max of 2 tax saving funds should be enough. Not sure if you need 4

Which MF/scheme?

Hi,

I work in a software company. My CTC is 5.85L. I wish to invest some amount in ELSS scheme.

Could you please suggest me best ELSS scheme & suitable amount? How about investing in Principal Personal Tax Saver MF?

Also I would like to clarify is ELSS scheme is lumsum investment? mean AMC will not debit amount monthly from my account if I fill bank details in form.

Re: Which MF/scheme?

Hi,

You can also consider these two Elss schemes

1. SBI Magnum Tax gain
2. Sundaram tax saver

Suitable amount is upto you to decide.

You can invest either by lumpsum or you can start a SIP(Systematic Investment Plan) through which you can invest a sum monthly.

Regards,
Sriram

Re: Which MF/scheme?

Principal Personal tax saver is a very aggressive MF. it invests heavily in small and mid cap stocks.

Sundaram tax saver
Fidelity tax advantage
Birla sunlife tax relief

No you can pick other funds like Sundaram taxsaver, Fidelity tax advantage and birla sunlife tax relief. Magnum tax gain is a good fund. HDFC taxsaver a great (probably greatest) fund once is performing extremely poorly these days

2) should i again invest thorugh SIP or lumpsum ..in current market scenario. ?

SIP always. Market scenario does not matter.

3) last time i did not had demat account ..so i invested in MF thorug some agent. As now i have ICICI demat account. I think i do invest online in same funds... new porfolios will be generated ..and 3 yr lock in period . will follow..again from now. what should i do?

you can transfer it to the dmat account, you not have a fresh lockin , instead it will be 3 years - 8 months (from dec 07)
