How to use section 80G to Save Income Tax

Section 80G of the I-T Act allows donations made to prescribed funds and institutions as a deduction from gross total income before arriving at taxable income. 

This deduction can be availed by any person or assessee who makes an eligible donation. 


Contribution can be made via cheque or cash. Effective from the assessment year 2018-19, a person can avail a maximum deduction of Rs 2,000 if the donation is made in cash. 

The amount that can be claimed as deduction depends on the entity to which the donation is made. One can claim 100% or 50% of the donated amount as a deduction. 

For claiming deduction under Section 80G, it is important to have the receipt issued by the recipient trust which contains the name, address PAN of the Trust, the name of the donor, and the amount donated.

Stick to Good Fund Manager who Can Multiply Your Investment

A manager may be the difference between the best and worst funds. Here's how you can find the right one    Does a mutual fund manager make a difference to your investment? The answer may not be as easy as you think, since most best-performing mutual funds have moved away from individualistic fund management to process-driven methods, limiting the scope of an individual's role in investment decisions. In fact, many fund managers would speak at length about how the "system" their fund house has in place makes their task of picking stocks easy even though it restricts their freedom. Still, the question is important, especially after recent reports that the Securities and Exchange Board of India ( Sebi ) may ask fund managers to disclose to investors their track record of managing money. Let us take a look at the universe of large-cap funds over the past five years. According to Value Research, an independent mutual fund tracking firm, the topper in the category is DSP...

Bear markets may kill, but bulls always return with vengeance

Average Gain Between Any Two Downturns Has Been 186% IF you have lost a fortune in shares by now, the best way to make it up perhaps could be by buying some more. Since the Great Depression of 1929, the world has undergone 12 major bear market phases. The average bear market has lasted about 22 months, and the market has fallen by an average of 51%. However, the average gain during the bull market between any two downturns has been an eye-popping 186%. The index here in question is the S&P 500. Bull markets — after every recessionary phase — have always been good for investors. All major bull rallies since end-1930 have resulted in markets gaining between 50-500%. Historic numbers show that the magnitude (size or breadth) of a bull market is much heavier than that of a bear market. The million dollar question is: Are we at the threshold of another bull market rally? Markets could go up intermittently, but convincing rallies will take time to happen. The current bear phase is...

NRIs and direct taxes code (DTC)

DTC Proposes To Do Away With Special Provision That Allows NRIs Liberalised Duration Of Stay In Country      THE new direct taxes code could bring a large number of global Indians under the tax net, as it does away with a provision that allowed individuals to escape tax in any country citing double tax avoidance.    The new legislation, introduced in Parliament on Monday, says an individual shall be a resident of India in any financial year if he is in the country for more than 59 days in that year, and has been has been India for more 365 days in four preceding financial years. A number of Indian industrialists including Vedanta's Anil Agarwal and Essar's Ravi Ruia have acquired non-resident status over the years.    The DTC has only attempted to clean up the provision in line with the laws globally. A phrase "being outside India" in the existing income tax law exempted individuals who stay outside the country for six months from paying taxes. This was prone ...

Selling is a critical activity in investment process

  ONE of the questions that investors have with respect to their equity mutual fund holdings is for what time period they should hold their investments and when they should sell them. There is no easy answer to this and the end result would actually vary with individuals, but it's important to check a few things before deciding on the time to divest holdings. No decisions are perfect, but when made in a proper manner, the chance of acceptance increases without much problem. Beneficial: Investors look at decisions beneficial for them. In the actual sense, any investment that results in a gain for the investor is beneficial as far as they are concerned. When it is for equity-oriented funds, then there is another condition that is also beneficial. There will be a lower rate of tax for the holdings that are long term in nature. If the holdings are maintained for more than a year, then the rate of tax on the investment will be zero and, hence, this will turn out to be beneficial ...
