Median of every liquid fund's Regular plan (Growth). After tax assumes the 30% slab and a holding of over a year: liquid-fund gains taxed at 31.2% (slab plus cess), arbitrage gains at 13% (long-term capital gains plus cess). Surcharge and the ₹1.25 lakh yearly exemption on equity gains are ignored; both favour arbitrage further. In a lower slab, or for less than a year (20% plus cess on arbitrage gains), the gap is smaller and can reverse.
Risk
Portfolio
An arbitrage fund buys shares and sells the same shares in the futures market, so its stock list says nothing about its risk; we leave it out. What matters is the return it earns over short-term rates, its costs and its size.
