These funds typically come with lock-in periods of 5 years or until the child attains majority, whichever is earlier. The tax treatment of these funds depends on whether the equity allocation to domestic stocks is at least 65%.
These funds need holding periods of at least the lock-in period or longer depending on the extent of equity exposure in the fund.
