Earn more from your Idle Money in the Bank


Earn more on your idle bank balance

Here's how you can earn double the returns you get in a savings bank account without compromising on liquidity



Earn more on your idle bank balance


The charm of a savings bank account lies in the flexibility it offers to call your money at will. But it comes at a cost as the money idling in your bank account earns a meager 4%. So is there a way out? Is it possible to earn superior returns as well as get instant liquidity?


Earn more on your idle bank balance



As the chart above shows, you can effectively double the return on your money, simply by keeping it in ultra short term funds rather than savings bank accounts. This can make a huge difference to how much you earn on your idle money. For instance, a Rs 3 lakh corpus can earn Rs75,000 more in ultra short term funds than in your savings bank account in 5 years' time.


This Strategy doesn't come at the cost of liquidity.


You can earn higher returns whilst keeping your money available at short notice. Here's how

At your beck and call

There are many reasons why you need some money close at hand. If you or a loved one falls ill or if you need to conduct urgent repairs. You also need money to pay bills whose amount you cannot fully predict, as anyone who has been an MSEB customer would know. But is this money doomed to sit in your Godrej Almirah or bank account earning somewhere between zero and four percent? Or do you have to lock it away in Fixed deposits for that extra return?

Not any more. The Indian Mutual Fund industry now offers an instant redemption facility which allows you to keep your day-to-day or emergency money in an ultra-short term fund or a liquid fund. These funds earlier allowed you to redeem your money within one day if your request was submitted before 3 pm. Now you can get your money instantaneously at the click of a button, and earn a higher interest rate on it.


Some might argue that it is better to keep it in short term fixed deposits. However these instruments are not flexible - the term may be short but it is fixed and premature closures will attract penalties.


There are of course some caveats. The fund will typically stipulate a limit on the amount of money you can get at a moment's notice and it will also limit it as a percentage of your holding with the fund. However does that defeat the purpose of the offering itself? We think not.

BHIM App

What is BHIM? BHIM stands for Bharat Interface for Money , which is an easy way of transferring money from one bank account to an other via a smartphone using the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) platform . It is an instant payments application meant for sending money as well as requesting for payments. How is it different from UPI? BHIM is no different than UPI. But in the case of BHIM, customers don't have to download mobile applications of multiple banks, instead a single BHIM app downloaded from Android Play Store is sufficient. Other than that, payments can be made through a virtual payments ID or through account number and IFS code, same as UPI. What you need to use BHIM? BHIM can be used across an droid smartphones with version 4.0 and above, also it will be made available on iPhones and Windows smartphones very soon.

NPS for Tax Saving

The NPS is a great way to save tax if you don't mind locking in your money till you retire. Till last year, the taxability of the NPS was a big issue. But last year's Budget changed the rules and made 40% of the corpus tax free. The PFRDA wants that the balance 60% to be exempt from tax as well. The emphasis is on increasing pension coverage. So, allowing EEE status (to NPS ) is our major demand (in the Budget NPS is especially useful for investors who may have exhausted the `1.5 lakh investment limit under Section 80C but want to save more.   Another way the NPS can cut tax is by rejigging the salary.If a company deposits up to 10% of the basic salary of an employee in the NPS under Section 80CCD(2d), the amount will be tax free. Turn to page 28 to see how much tax this can save. However, the take-home pay of the employee will come down. Invest Rs 1,50,000 and Save Tax upto Rs 46,350 under Section 80C.

Retirement planning from a long-term perspective

Invest In Tax Saving Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Buy Gold Mutual Funds     `HOW green was my valley'. This title comes from a movie I had watched many years ago. A little boy's journey into adulthood and the story of a Welsh valley's turn of-the-century descent from pristine paradise to despoiled coal mining.   I thought of the title because it is comparatively reflective of a person's life ­ the glorious years when he is earning and the sun down years when he is not having his regular job and, hence, his living standards comes down. The reason is a combination of things. Inflation of food items, transport, increase in health related costs in the later years of life and increase in expenses in almost all basic amenities of life. In India, the social security system is almost non-existent. In some states, wherever it is available, the scales of benefits are extremely modest...

ELSS Funds are Best Tax Saving Option

Equity-linked saving schemes (ELSS) are the best way to save tax in 2017 . The Economic Times assessed 10 tax-saving options on eight key parameters, including returns, safety , liquidity , costs, transparency , flexibility , ease of investment and taxability of income. ELSS funds scored highest, followed by the National Pension System (NPS) and Ulips at the second and third place, respectively . The terrific returns generated by ELSS (CAGR of 18.7% in past three years and 17.46% in past five years) are not the only plus point of these funds. Their costs are very low (2.52.75% a year) and all charges, portfolios and transactions are in the public domain. Returns are tax free because long-term capital gains from equity funds are exempt and they have the shortest lock-in period of three years. Investing in ELSS funds has now become very easy with the launch of the e-KYC facility . The whole process does not take more than 30-35 minutes. The Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Aut...
