Section 80C deduction is available only when any amount is invested in ELSS schemes of any MF; whether lump sum or SIP........
The amount invested gets lock-in for 3 years.......... so, you cannot redeem ELSS units within period of 3 years. (unless specific permission obtained from ITO)
So, whatever redemption amount you will get after 6 years will be of the units invested in first 3 years only, which will be totally tax-exempt..
