Switch To Groww from Coin
I am planning to switch my MF from coin to groww. Is there any other option rather than withdrawing my fund from coin and investing it into groww.
Hello Viners! I am thinking of withdrawing funds from MFs I have invested in with LTCG ~ ₹1 lac and reinvesting the entire amt into the same fund. This is to book gains and avoid taxes. I know STCG will have to be paid which i am okay with. Anything fundamentally flawed with this process or a normal practice? Thanks!
As @UprightBat rightfully mentioned,
You don’t have to be pay taxes if you don’t withdraw the funds. Looks like you are missing something
You're a little confused about the concept. Stcg is not good, ltcg is fine to book if you're in the lower salary bracket and will go into the higher bracket soon. But even then withdrawing it and reinvesting it doesn't serve any purpose. It's better to withdraw it and keep it with you.
That’s for stcg - that’s as per tax slab. Not moving to any higher slab.
If you have any loss making funds, you can definitely benefit from those with tax loss harvesting. https://support.zerodha.com/category/console/reports/taxation/articles/what-is-tax-loss-harvesting
Not sure why you would want to book profits and pay tax on LTCG right away.
Thanks! Will check this out.
Booking , Reinvesting and paying LTCG is normal process .
Don’t understand why u mention STCG ? Are you planning to book that and again reinvest ? What will you gain from it.?
If i m booking gains, then stcg will apply right? Or it won’t if I reinvest? And reinvest what -principal or principal + interest?
I don’t think that will impact taxes(not using taxfree money, and reinvesting at same NAV)…also selling loss making assets might help in reducing taxable amount, but in this case I don’t think so…

Does anyone do tax harvesting? For e.g at March month take out profits till 1.25L from mutual funds and invest in same mutual funds in April. Like this you will not get LTGC which is 12.5% ? Or generally in stock market profit booking ha...
All the UNBOOKED Gains in your Portfolio would now attract -
25% MORE LTCG (10% to 12.50% is NOT 2.5%, but 25% more), Surcharge extra as applicable.
33.33% MORE STCG (15% to 20% is NOT 5%, but 33.33% more), Surcharge extra as applicable.
