Tax-Saving Investment Schemes:
Unit Linked Insurance Plan (ULIP): ULIP is a type of savings plan that offers you the dual advantage, i.e., the opportunity to invest the amount while ensuring the financial security of your loved ones. Investments under these schemes are eligible for tax deductions as per Section 80C, with a maximum limit of ₹1.5 lakh per year. Additionally, the maturity proceeds of a ULIP are tax exempted under Section 10(10)(D) . ULIPs offer life insurance coverage while allowing you to select from various ULIP funds that invest in equities, debt, or a mix of two. These funds function similarly to mutual funds. The minimum annual investment amount varies across different funds but is typically set at ₹2,500.
