When it comes to Tax Saving and ELSS Funds I prefer to invest in funds where I get maximum dividend and that way I do not need to invest my full amount and also get the Tax benefit of full amount invested. Read how if you still have not read – Full tax saving without investing one lac. Now many people ask me about how to know the dividend history of funds and so for them I have Dividend History of Mutual Funds.
So now using the methods discussed in the above two articles I would list some of the best Tax Saving funds. The list of funds I have selected are based on criteria of consistent dividend for a longer period of time.
Best Dividend ever by any Tax saver fund I know off.

Jun 27, 2008 | 50 % |
Mar 25, 2008 | 200 % |
Mar 16, 2007 | 500 % |
Jan 19, 2007 | 260 % |
Dec 8, 2006 | 250 % |

Apart from the above old funds I also expect some good returns for some of the new tax saving funds which till date have not recorded good dividend but that is may be because of the current market situation for last one year or so and so they deserve mentioning.
