Book Profit

A gain on an investment that has not yet been realized. That is, book profit occurs when the current price of a security is higher than the price the holder paid for it, but the holder still owns the security. As a result, there is the possibility that the book profit might be erased if the price goes back down. A book profit represents an increase in one's net worth, but it may or may not affect one's lifestyle. Under most circumstances, one is not taxed for book profit; the government waits until gains and losses are realized.

VARIOUS TAX SAVING OPTIONS

VARIOUS TAX SAVING OPTIONS India has got several government as well as private sector organizations offering numerous tax saving options to the residents of this country. Some of them are as follows:
1. Public Provident Fund: Commonly known as P. P. F., this tax saving option falls within the Section 80 C of the Income Tax Act in India. Public Provident Fund allows a maximum contribution of INR. 100, 000 per year. The return in this scheme is compounded annually at the rate of 8.5%. It is one of the long term ventures that do not allow complete withdrawal before 15 years. Post 5 years of investment, withdrawal is possible though. No tax is levied on the earned interest. Besides these, it even forms a retirement-planning tool. One can have such an account in either the State Bank of India or some of the nationalized banks or at some of the designated post office branches.
2. Unit Linked Insurance Plans: Covered by the Income Tax Act's Section 80 C, U. L. I. P. is a unique blend of investment and insurance that gives a tax exemption of INR. 1,00,000 per year. Here, the premium, which is being paid by a customer, gets deducted with initial charges while the rest of the amount is invested. Such a plan can be of the following three kinds: Aggressive ULIPs where one can invest 80 % to 100 % in equities. The rest can be invested in debt instruments though and Balanced ULIPs where an individual can invest 40 % to 60 % in equities. Conservative ULIPs, which allows one to invest up to 20 % in equities
3. Equity Linked Saving Scheme: Popularly called E. L. S. S., this is a kind of mutual fund that comes within the Income Tax Act Section 80 C. With a minimum investment period of 3 years, this investment option helps one get exempted from income tax payment and offers an exemption of maximum INR. 1,00,000 in a financial year as well. The interest rate depends on the performance of this scheme in a given year. However, if it does well, then it is more likely to increase even the interest rate of P. P. F
. 4. Fixed Deposits: Fixed Deposits (FDs) are another popular tax saving option covered by the Section 80 C of the Income Tax Act. With a maximum exemption of INR 100000 annually, the rate of interest varies from one bank or post office to another. However, the tax saving can only be done of FDs once you have invested for a minimum duration of 5 years. This scheme neither allows the encashment of the money prior to completion of the 5 years term nor can this be used as the security against any loan.
5. Employee Provident Fund: Famously called E. P. F., this scheme offers a total yearly exemption of INR 100000 as mentioned in the Income Tax Act Section 80 C. In this fund, 10 % to 12 % of a person's basic salary gets deducted and the other 12 % is contributed by the employer. One can withdraw the entire amount in instances of leaving job, retirement after 58 years of age or taking V. R. S. Partial withdrawal can be done for home, medical or marriage related expenses though.
6. National Saving Certificate: This tax saving scheme known as N. S. C. helps one get exempted from tax by an investment of up to INR 100000 per year under the Section 80 C of the I. T Act of India. The interest rate is compounded half-yearly at the rate of 8 % and reinvested every year from the last year's N. S. C. The minimum period for this investment scheme is 6 years post which, one is provided with the entire interest along with the initial capital. The major benefit of this is that one can earn a maximum tax saving interest of INR 100000.
 7. Infrastructure Bonds: Over and above the deduction allowed by the Section 80 C, one can save income tax on a maximum amount of INR 20000 by investing in different infrastructure bonds. Covered by the Section 80 CCF of the Indian I. T. Act, this bond has got a lock-in period of 5 to 10 years. The rate of interest even varies from 8 % to 8.3 %.
8. Insurance: Life insurance is among the best and authentic tax saving options covered within the Section 80 C of India's Income Tax Act. Though the policy allows a maximum deduction of INR 100, 000 in a given financial year, but in case anyone surrenders the plan before paying two year's premium, then it will have reverse effect of tax benefit. However, the tax benefit for the premium is restricted to 20 % of the initial amount of the capital invested. Apart from that, this helps one plan for the unforeseen events in his or her life.
 9. Health Premiums: Popular as Medi-claim Policies, which are a form of health insurance, comes within the Section 80 D of the country's Income Tax Act. Applicable even on the proprietor firm's cheques, these policies offers a maximum deduction of INR. 35,000. This deduction is calculated in addition to any other tax saving done as per the Section 80 C. The total amount of INR 35, 000 can be divided as follows: • INR 15000: Premium for policies on spouse, children or self • INR 15000: Premium towards policies for dependent parents, who are non-senior citizens • INR 15000: Premium for dependent senior citizens • Besides saving your income tax, these policies even help you deal with your or your family's health related problems with ease during any emergency situation. 10. Tuition Fee: Covered under the Indian I. T. Act Section 80 C, payment made towards the education of children is even exempted from one's yearly income tax. Being a part of Section 80 C, one can get a maximum exemption of up to INR. 100,000 per financial year. Tuition fee for school, college and university as well as coaching fee for varied competitive exams are considered under this policy. However, just 2 children are considered for such a kind of tax exemption.

Act of India, this type of investment plan helps in a total exemption of INR. 1,00,000. the entire tenure of such a scheme varies from 3 years to 5 years. Equity Linked Saving Scheme is considered to be one of the best tax saving mutual funds.

Tax Planning vs. Tax Management

Tax planning primarily aims at adopting an arrangement so as to bring about the least incidence of tax under the four corners of law. On the other hand, tax management comprises a wider field like compliance with statutory provisions of law, prospective planning so as to case the financial constraints if any, that would arise when discharging the commitments through payment of tax, keeping close watch and monitoring the statutory requirements of other laws, claiming unilateral reliefs etc. thus whilst tax planning is the pivot which enables the drawing up of different incentives and keep the incidence of tax low, the tax management is the revolving wheel, which translates the policy in terms of results.
