continue to remain invested for as long as they wish
Tax efficient gains : All the gains are treated under Long term Capital Gain

lac which is allowed under Sec 80 C of Income tax Act 1961
Possibility of Higher returns : Although this scheme is categorised under High Risk due to its
investment nature, this also opens the possibility of Higher return.
This is yet another inspiring story of smart investments, where the Risk- Reward ratio is properly
calculated and adopted by our client Mr Neeraj Jain, aged 44 Yrs.
When we met him around 10 Years back, he discussed about his annual savings in PPF. He was very happy
with this guaranteed return feature of PPF and was really satisfied with the steady accumulation of funds
in his passbook. He was excited about his target value of around Rs 39 Lakhs in 15 Years (by way of
monthly contribution of Rs 12000 per month) . Hence he was quite keen in opening another PPF account
in his wife's name.
The whole discussion started when we presented him a post inflation value of this Rs 40 lakhs after 15
Years - it would be not more than Rs 18 Lakh ( assuming an inflation of 6% p.a). So the key question in
front of Neeraj was , " Where to invest his funds to beat this inflation, get Tax benefits same as PPF and
lock-in less than or equal to PPF ? " .
We presented him this unique product called as ELSS ( Equity Linked Savings Scheme). ELSS MF schemes
have following features as compared to PPF :

section 80 C, then ELSS is the best choice. We are here to help you and motivate you at
