Is SIP deductible U/s 80C ?

22 July 2009 Whether Investment made in SIP is deductible or not as per Section 80C of Income tax Act ?

23 July 2009 All mutual funds investments are not eligible for tax benefits. Only investments in equity-linked saving schemes (ELSS) and pension plans get deduction under Section 80C within the overall limit of Rs 1 lakh a year. Any investment in these funds during the financial year−as lump sum or in instalments−will get tax benefits under Section 80C. ELSS funds are also known as tax plans and have a three-year lock-in period. If your intention is to save tax, it is better to check beforehand whether the fund you are investing in offers you tax deduction or not.
