How ICICI Prudential Asset Allocator Fund is taxed

Mutual fund gains are capital gains, taxed when you redeem, and the rate depends on what the scheme holds and how long you held the units. The rules below are those in force after the Finance Act of 2024 for redemptions from 23 July 2024, with the changes of April 2025 for gold, silver and international funds. Rupix is not a tax adviser; confirm the treatment for your own case.

A hybrid scheme is taxed by what it holds. One that keeps at least sixty-five percent in Indian shares, counting arbitrage positions, is taxed as equity: twenty percent on units sold within twelve months, twelve and a half percent on long-term gains above one lakh twenty-five thousand rupees a year. That covers aggressive hybrid, arbitrage and equity savings funds and most balanced advantage funds, which hold arbitrage positions to stay above the line.

One that keeps between thirty-five and sixty-five percent in shares, which is true of some dynamic asset allocation funds and most multi-asset funds, is a non-equity fund: units held more than twenty-four months are long-term at twelve and a half percent, shorter holdings at your slab rate. One with thirty-five percent or less in shares, such as a conservative hybrid fund, is taxed like a debt fund, at your slab rate throughout.
