AMFI Quote for Budget 2025 expectation,*
"We anticipate a Union Budget that prioritizes investor confidence and deepens participation in mutual funds by addressing key tax-related concerns.
Restoring indexation benefits for debt funds and rationalizing the capital gains tax regime, as well as the introduction of a Debt-Linked Savings Scheme, can significantly bolster long-term savings and develop the Indian bond market.
Harmonizing tax treatments for pension-linked mutual funds and other investment avenues will also create a level playing field, driving financial inclusion.
Additionally, simplifying TDS rules for NRIs and revising GST provisions related to mutual fund operations would alleviate compliance burdens and support robust growth.
We look forward to a progressive budget that reinforces mutual funds as a pillar of economic development and investor wealth creation."
By Mr. Venkat Chalasani, Chief Executive, AMFI
