Good morning sir. I am a PSU employee with 30 years exp , age 54 yrs. My present PF amount is Rs 194 Lacs , out of which my contribution including VPF is Rs 120 Lacs approx. As Govt is imposing tax on the interest above 2.5 lacs / yrly, I am paying heavily in terms of taxes. I do not have PPF. Please guide me to save the reduce the tax on this interest on PF amount.

Ans: Hello;

You may withdraw the VPF portion(the interest on which is taxable) and invest it into ICICI Pru equity savings fund. It is a hybrid fund with low to moderate risk.

You may expect around 8% returns from this scheme and after 6 years you will have favorable equity LTCG taxation.

Happy Investing;
