Ans: When deciding whether to continue or wait with your current mutual fund investments, consider the following factors:

Performance: Evaluate the performance of each fund over different time periods. Look at their returns compared to benchmark indices and peer funds in the same category.
Fund Objectives: Ensure that the objectives of the funds align with your investment goals and risk tolerance. Review the fund's investment strategy and portfolio composition.
Fund Manager: Assess the track record and expertise of the fund manager managing each fund. A skilled and experienced fund manager can significantly impact fund performance.
Expense Ratio: Consider the expense ratio of each fund, as higher expenses can eat into your returns over time. Compare the expense ratios of your funds with similar funds in the market.
Market Conditions: Take into account the current market conditions and economic outlook. Certain funds may perform better in specific market environments.
Changes in Personal Financial Situation: Evaluate any changes in your personal financial situation or investment goals that may necessitate adjustments to your portfolio.
Review Periodically: Regularly review your portfolio to ensure it remains aligned with your objectives. Consider rebalancing or making changes if needed based on market trends or changes in your financial situation.
By carefully considering these factors and possibly seeking advice from a financial advisor, you can make informed decisions about whether to continue or wait with your current mutual fund investments.

Can you please suggest on capital gains as per Indian taxation laws arising in the below two queries : 1) property purchased with joint ownership, me and my wife’s name in 2015 at a cost of 64,80,000, housing improvements done for the cost of 1000000 and brokerages of 200000 paid and sold the same property at 10000000 in Dec 2023? 2) 87% of the proceeds got from the deal i.e 8700000, have been reinvested to pay 25% amount in purchasing another joint ownership property in Dec 2023, 3) I have invested in another under construction property in Nov 2023 by taking housing loan, which is on me and my wife’s name worth 1.4 cr, here the primary applicant is me only while wife is just made a Co applicant in the builder buyer agreement and also on the housing loan . So what are the LTCG tax liabilities arising from the above 3 scenarios for FY 2023-2024 and FY 2024-2025. I intend to sale off the property acquired in (2) by Dec 2024 and use that proceeds to close the housing loan for the property acquired in (3), will this sale of property be inviting any tax liabilities if the complete proceeds received from the sale of the property in (2) would be utilised to close the housing loan taken in Nov 2023 for the property in (3) ? Since in FY 23-24, I would be claiming the LTCG from the sale proceeds of 1) invested in the purchase of property in 2), and I intend to sale off this property in Dec 2024, will the LTCG claim be forfeited on the property sale in (1), should I hold this property at least for further 1 year so that sale of this property in 2) will not invite STCG?
Ans: (A). Let's first talk about F/Y 2023-24 :
You jointly sold a Property during the year for Rs.76.80 lakhs (64.80+10.00+2.00), & sold the same for Rs.100.00 lakhs.
You have jointly also purchased Property No.3 (I suppose it is Residential only), for Rs.140.00 lakhs.
You should avail exemption u/s-54 & file your ITR accordingly. Please disclose all details about sale & purchase in your ITR.
02. Now coming to the F/Y 2024-25 :
You intend to Sell Property No.2, which was acquired in 2023-24. Any Gain on Sale of it would be Short Term capital Gains & taxed accordingly.
Alternatively, you may hold this sale of property no.2 (for 2 years from its purchase) & avoid STCG
You are free to utilize the sale proceeds in a way you like, including paying off your housing Loan.
Please note to avail exemption u/s 54 only from investment in property no.3 & not 2.
Most welcome for any further clarifications. Thanks.
