Aditya Birla Birla Sun Life Dynamic Bond tax rate
If sold after three years from the date of purchase, then long term capital gains tax will be applicable. The current tax rate is (a) 10% of profit or (b) 20% of adjusted profit after index profit. No cess/surcharge is included. If sold three years before the date of purchase, short-term capital gains tax will apply. Any benefit will be added to your income and taxed at your effective tax rate.
Suitability:
Investors who want to invest for the long term but prefer lower-risk assets than equity funds.
Dynamic bond funds have the right to invest in bonds at any time. The fund management team decides whether to invest in bonds maturing in a few months or maturing several years later, where it plans to achieve maximum returns. They are, therefore, the most flexible type of debt fund available.
As most other types of debt funds, we think retail investors can avoid this too. In our opinion, debt funds only make sense for retail investors if they invest for three years or less. Liquid debt funds and short-term debt funds are more suited to that type of investment horizon.
Note: Dividends paid by MFS are levied at a rate of 25% (actually 29.12%, including surcharge and cess). While this tax is not paid directly by the investor, it is deducted from the dividend income before it is paid to the investor.
