The rising inflation coupled with tax deductions equal to a shrinking wallet. However, the Income Tax Act, under Section 80C offers income earners, tax reliefs with a number of tax saving instruments like Public Provident Fund (PPF), National Savings Certificate (NSC), etc., that are safe tax saving options.

But what are the chances that you get to save tax and earn high returns while you are at it?

ELSS helps you do just that.


Let Us First Understand How Section 80C Helps

As per the Income Tax Act, Section 80C helps a taxpayer retain up to a maximum of Rs 1,50,000 from his total income for one financial year. Therefore, if a taxpayer wants to save tax on Rs 1,50,000 or less they are required to show an investment of the same. The Equity Linked Savings Scheme (ELSS) Mutual Fund is specifically designed for this purpose.


What Is ELSS?

ELSS is a diversified equity mutual fund that not only helps save tax but gets you huge returns on your investment as well (at least 65% of the assets in ELSS are invested in the equity market).
As compared to other tax saving instruments like National Savings Certificate (6 years), bank deposits (5 years), and Public Provident Fund (15 years), ELSS has the lowest lock-in period, i.e., 3 years.
