How does a Systematic Withdrawal Plan work?
A Systematic Withdrawal Plan(SWP) works in an opposite way to Systematic Investment Plan(SIP).A Systematic Investment Plan(SIP) allows an investor to invest a fixed amount at pre-determined intervals and a Systematic Withdrawal Plan(SWP) is a facility which allows an investor to withdraw a fixed amount at pre-determined intervals. The investor can choose the amount, the frequency and the duration of the SWP according to his needs. Withdrawals through SWP are subject to Exit Load as applicable.
How does long term and short term capital gain affect my tax implications ?
The tax implications on Mutual Funds are determined based on the type of Mutual Fund and holding period (from date of acquisition up to the date of the redemption/transfer).
For equity-oriented schemes (having at least 65% equity exposure): If the holding period is less than 1 year, then you realise Short Term Capital Gains which are taxable at a flat rate of 15%**. If the holding period is more than 1 year, then you realise Long Term Capital Gains which are taxable at a flat rate of 10%** if the Long Term Capital Gains exceed Rs.1,00,000 in a year. Long Term Capital Gains up to Rs.1,00,000 in a year are tax-free.
For non-equity oriented schemes (if units acquired on or after April 1, 2023):
- Schemes having up to 35% equity exposure: The capital gains on redemption of such units would be treated as Short Term Capital Gains irrespective of holding period and would be taxed as per the slab rates** applicable to the investor
- Schemes having between 35% to 65% equity exposure: If the holding period is less than 3 years, then you realise Short Term Capital Gains which are taxable at the applicable slab rates**. If the holding period is more than 3 years, then you realise Long Term Capital Gains which are taxable at a flat rate of 20%** after allowing indexation benefit.
** Plus applicable surcharge and cess

In view of the individual nature of tax implications, each investor is advised to consult with his/ her tax consultant with respect to the specific tax implications arising out of their transactions.
In the above calculations, it has been assumed that investor falls under highest tax bracket (i.e., 30%) and total income of the investor does not exceed Rs. 1 crore. Gains on the redemption of units of mutual fund are treated as capital gains for income tax purpose if such units are held as capital assets. Investment in equity funds (having at least 65% equity allocation) for not more than 12 months is considered as short-term and attracts short-term capital gains tax of 15%. Gains from equity funds held for more than 12 months attracts long term capital gains tax of 10% (without indexation benefit) if the gains exceed Rs.1,00,000 in a year. Investment in non-equity funds for not more than 36 months is considered as short-term and attracts short-term capital gains tax at applicable tax/slab rates. Gains from non-equity mutual funds held for more than 36 months attracts long term capital gains tax of 20% (with indexation benefit). Investment in Specified Mutual Funds (having not more than 35% equity allocation) made on or after April 1, 2023 are considered short term irrespective of holding period and attract short term capital gains tax at applicable tax/slab rates. The basic tax would be increased by surcharge at applicable rates based on total income and Health & Education Cess of 4%.
At the time of the redemption of units, redemption amount comprises two parts. One is the invested amount and the other is gains on the invested amount. STCG/LTCG tax is applicable only on the gains made on the redemption units. In case of Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP), at the time of redemption of each instalment, investor needs to pay STCG/LTCG tax only on the gains part and not on the invested amount. Over a period of time with market appreciation, in each SWP instalment, invested amount (principal) component decreases and growth/gains part increases. Thus, it helps the investor over a period of time to consume less principal amount and thereby allowing the balance principal amount to grow further.
