Arbitrage Fund

Hybrid category · 38 direct-growth schemes tracked

Profits from price gaps between a stock's cash-market and futures price rather than directional market calls. Low-risk by design, and taxed as an equity fund since it holds at least 65% in equity and equity-derivative positions.

Taxation: typically taxed as an equity-oriented fund — gains held over a year are long-term (12.5% beyond the annual exemption threshold), shorter holdings are short-term (20%). This is general information, not tax advice — confirm current rules for your situation with a qualified professional.
