Quote of the Month :“Investing should be more like watching paint dry or watching grass grow. If you want excitement, take $800 and go to Las Vegas.” - Paul Samuelson

If you think investing is gambling, you’re doing it wrong. The work involved requires planning and patience. However, the gains you see over time are indeed exciting!

TOPIC OF INTERESTKnow more about Rajiv Gandhi Equity Savings Scheme (RGESS)

(Continued from February 2014 issue)

5. We already have an Equity Linked Savings Scheme (ELSS)? Why do we need RGESS? Ans. ELSS and RGESS are entirely different schemes: They pertain to different asset classes with ELSS offering passive

investment avenues. ELSS is meant for indirect participation in the stock market, whereas RGESS aims at encouraging direct participation in the stock market. The operational differences are given below:

Operational differences

ELSS RGESS

Investments are to be strictly in mutual funds Investments are to be made directly in listed equity or into units of mutual funds and ETFs

100% deduction (upto ` 1,00,000) is allowed under ELSS

Only 50% deduction of the investment made (upto max. of ` 25,000 in any one year) is allowed under RGESS.

ELSS benefits can be availed by an investor every year

RGESS benefits are limited to the new investors and can be availed for only 3 consecutive years

The ELSS benefit is coming under Section 80C of the IT Act which has an aggregate limit of ` 1,00,000 for all such eligible instruments like LIC policy, PPF etc

RGESS deduction is available under Section 80CCG. This is a separate investment limit exclusively for RGESS, over and above the Section 80C Limit of ` 1 lakh

Lock-in period of 3 years Lock-in period of 3-years. However, trading allowed after one-year, subject to conditions.

Since investments are in mutual funds, it is perceived to be less risky

Since investments are in equity, risk is perceived to be higher

6. What are the benefits / highlights of RGESS compared to other tax saving schemes? Ans. The following are the benefits of RGESS: The allowed tax deduction u/s 80CCG will be over and above the ` 1 Lakh limit permitted under Section 80C of

the Income Tax (IT) Act, making it thus attractive for the middle class investors. Further, the Dividend income is tax free, if the company is liable to dividend distribution tax. The benefits can be availed for three consecutive years. Investor is free to trade / churn the portfolio after the fixed lock-in period, subject to certain conditions. Gains arising out of higher market valuation of RGESS eligible securities can be realized after a year viz: fixed

lock-in period. Provisions exist to protect the investor from general declines in the market to a certain extent. This is in contrast to all other tax saving instruments.

Facility for pledging stocks after the fixed lock-in period. For investments upto ` 50,000 in your sole RGESS demat account, if you opt for Basic Service Demat

Account, annual maintenance charges for the demat account is zero and for investments upto ` 2 lakh, it is stipulated at ` 100.

The investments can be made in installments during the financial year in which tax deduction is claimed.

to be continued in next issue…
