Capital Gain Tax on Mutual Fund Redemptions for NRIs



Considering your status as an NRI, applicable tax on capital gains would have been deducted at the time of your redemption



For NRIs, mutual fund redemption proceeds are subject to tax deducted at source (TDS). If you withdraw from your MF within a year, you have to pay a TDS at the rate of 30% if it's a debt fund or a gold fund and 15% if it is an equity-oriented scheme.


But long-term capital gains on equity mutual funds are not taxed if held for over a year. Short-term gains are taxed at 15 percent plus cess. In case of debt mutual funds, both short-term and long-term capital gains are taxed.

Short-term capital gains (redeemed within 3 years) are added to the income and taxed as per the individual's income tax slab.

Long-term capital gains (redeemed after 3 years) are taxed as 10 percent without indexation and 20 percent with indexation (plus cess).


Considering your status as an NRI, the applicable tax on capital gains would have been deducted at the time of your redemption.


  In case if the tax liability on your investment is less than the amount of tax deducted at source then you should file for an income tax refund.

EPFO can pay 8.5% interest in 2009-10

THE Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation can comfortably offer 8.5% interest rate to its 4.41 crore depositors during 2009-10 and still record a surplus contrary to Rs 139-crore losses suffered by it for giving the same benefit during the current fiscal. The issue of return to the depositors would be discussed at a meeting of the ‘finance and investment committee’ (FIC) on Thursday, agenda for which lists that maintaining an 8.5% interest could still give the fund a surplus of Rs 6.4 crore on the investment made by the fund. If EPFO maintains the interest rate of 8.5% on PF deposits, there will be a surplus of Rs 6.4 crore at an estimated income of Rs 12,994 crore in 2009-10. In case the interest is raised to 8.75%, the fund would suffer a loss of Rs 366.77 crore and the deficit would be still higher at Rs 739.94 crore if the rate of interest is fixed at 9%.
