Highest modeled value under these assumptions: Pay assumed tax, invest in MF/PMS. This is not a recommendation. Check legal eligibility and tax treatment with a qualified professional before relying on any of these figures.

Smart tax planning notes

  • If your assumed MF/PMS return is well above your assumed RE growth, paying the assumed tax and investing the balance may compound to more over longer horizons.
  • Specified bonds (Section 54EC) can shelter gains up to ₹50 lakh per the notified lock-in and rate used in this illustration — not a guaranteed yield.
  • Section 54F needs the net consideration reinvested in a house, and not owning more than one other residential house at the time of sale.

Comparison insight

Under these assumptions, Pay assumed tax, invest in MF/PMS models the highest wealth — ₹7,27,209 more than the next-highest path. This is a modeled comparison, not a recommendation.

Key insight

Assumed MF/PMS return (12%) is higher than assumed RE growth (8%) before any tax drag is applied.

Rules to verify

Section 54 depends on a qualifying residential-house sale and new-home facts. Section 54F uses net consideration and other ownership conditions. Section 54EC has eligible-asset, timing, aggregate ₹50 lakh and lock-in conditions. The illustrative rates above are not statutory rates.
