held for more than three years are considered for LTCG otherwise they fall under STCG.
Surcharge at 15% on base tax is applicable where the income of individual unit-holders exceeds Rs 1 crore and at 10% where the income exceeds ` 50 lakh but does not

Certainly, these new changes will reduce returns in the hands of equity mutual fund investors opting for dividend as well as growth
options. Investors looking at regular cash ows would be better off opting for the SWP feature in growth schemes rather than
choosing the dividend option, while investors investing for the long term would be better off continuing with the growth option as the
impact of the tax on returns will be marginal in the long term, as explained below.
In a nutshell, equity mutual funds despite being taxed now will continue to remain a superior asset class in comparison with other
asset classes. For investors who need a regular income, an SWP in the growth option of equity funds can be a better bet than the
dividend option.
