Monetise your Gold Collection





It is better to monetise your gold collection that is likely to be gathering dust in some safe.

This festive season, are you looking to invest in physical gold? Well, experts advise you to rethink. In fact, liquidate any unused, excess gold, lying idle with you, they say. However, if you are still interested in investing in it, opt for alternatives to physical gold. Here's how you can make the most of the yellow metal.

Just sell it: You can sell gold to firms such as Muthoot, which are likely to offer better rates compared to local jewellers. Consumers who want to sell gold, usually, suffer a big haircut when they approach unorganised players. Not so with us. If you are in Mumbai, you don't even have to worry about carrying the gold to the company's branch, as they will collect it from your house, upon intimation. Sellers get instant cash for gold valued up to `20,000 and, for higher payments, the money is credited into their bank account.


Avail of MMTC buyback scheme: India's largest bullion supplier, MMTC, is expected to come up with a buyback offer for gold coins by the end of this month. We are currently in the software development stage and should launch this offer soon, across India. It would be a life-time facility available to customers and they can liquidate their coins whenever they want to. India consumes 90-100 tonne of gold coins annually. If you too have gold coins lying with you, MMTC's offer is tailor-made for you.


Monetise it: Gold accumulated over the years does not earn any intermittent income and its returns are fully dependent on its price (when it's being sold) .The government's gold monetisation scheme seeks to change this. It allows you to deposit a minimum of 30 grams in physical gold--jewellery, bullion, coins--with banks, and earn an interest on the deposit. You have option to keep your gold with the chosen bank for the short-term (1-3 years), mediumterm (5-7 years) and long-term (12-15 years). The current interest being offered ranges between 2.25 and 2.5%. It is a gold savings account-of-sorts and there is no tax on the interest income from these accounts.

ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund

 ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund scheme seeks to generate long-term capital appreciation and current income by investing in a portfolio that is investing in equities and related securities as well as fixed income and money market securities. The approximate allocation to equity would be in the range of 60-80 per cent with a minimum of 51 per cent, and the approximate debt allocation is 40-49 per cent, with a minimum of 20 per cent. An impressive show in the last couple of years has propelled this fund from a three-star to a four-star rating. The fund has traditionally featured a high equity allocation, hovering at well over 70 per cent, which is higher than the allocations of the peers. But in the last one year, the allocation has been moderated from 78-79 per cent levels to 66-67 per cent of the portfolio. ICICI Prudential Balanced Fund appears to practise some degree of tactical allocation based on market valuations. Within equities, well over two-thirds of the allocation is parked i...

TDS Rate and Personal Account Number(PAN)

    The TDS rate doubles to 20% from 10% if you fail to mention your Personal Account Number   IF you run a glance through your pay slip, you will come across something called TDS, which is tax deduction at source. In most cases, the employer deducts this amount at the time of payment of salary itself and pays the total tax amount to the government on behalf of all the employees. If you are a self- employed or practicing professional s, you have to pay this amount yourself.    Tax deducted at source is one of the modes of income tax collection by the government. Under the income-tax laws, income tax at specified rates is required to be deducted while making certain payments.    The rate of deduction of tax at source on interest and rent payment is 10%. For salary payments, the employers deduct income tax at source on a monthly basis after computing income tax liability on estimated annual taxable income of the employee. Tax benefits on housing loan, investments, etc are consid...

Tax Planning: Income tax and Section 80C

In order to encourage savings, the government gives tax breaks on certain financial products under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. Investments made under such schemes are referred to as 80C investments. Under this section, you can invest a maximum of Rs l lakh and if you are in the highest tax bracket of 30%, you save a tax of Rs 30,000. The various investment options under this section include:   Provident Fund (PF) & Voluntary Provident Fund (VPF) Provident Fund is deducted directly from your salary by your employer. The deducted amount goes into a retirement account along with your employer's contribution. While employer's contribution is exempt from tax, your contribution (i.e., employee's contribution) is counted towards section 80C investments. You can also contribute additional amount through voluntary contributions (VPF). The current rate of interest is 8.5% per annum and interest earned is tax-free. Public Provident Fund (PPF) An account can be opened wi...

Fortis Mutual Fund

Fortis Mutual Fund, a relatively new player, it is still to prove its case and define its position in the industry. In September 2004, it came onto the scene with a bang - three debt schemes, one MIP and one diversified equity scheme. And investors flocked to it. Going by the standards at that time, it had a great start in terms of garnering money. Mopping up over Rs 2,000 crore in five schemes was not bad at all. The fund house has not been too successful in the equity arena, in terms of assets. Though it has seven equity schemes, it is debt and cash funds that corner the major portion of the assets. Most of the schemes are pretty new, and the two that have been around for a while have a 3-star rating each. The last two were Fortis Sustainable Development (April 2007), which received a rather poor response, and Fortis China India (October 2007). Fortis Flexi Debt has been one of the better performing funds, after a dismal performance in 2005. It currently has a 5-star rating. None ...
