Mutual fund taxation after Budget 2024: Union Budget 2024 has significantly overhauled capital gains tax on various assets, including mutual funds. The holding periods for short-term and long-term capital gains have been rationalised to 12 and 24 months, respectively. Additionally, the indexation benefit on long-term capital gains has been removed, leading to a uniform tax rate of 12.5% for all asset classes. Short-term capital gains tax on equities and equity-oriented funds has been hiked to 20%. These changes will have a substantial impact on mutual fund returns.
