Dear Mehul, So long as you do not get any withdrawals from Superanuation fund, it is not taxable in your hands to the extent of 15% of annual contributions, made by the employer. However, On withdrawal, which most likely would be on parting ways with existing employers, the same would be taxable in the year of receipt to the extent of sum received. You can ask for copy of rules from employer for your knowledge. Thanks, Pankaj
