    Hi Triu
    If it is tax deferred then no tax is payable.

    The tax deferred component actually acts to reduce the cost base of your units, hence the tax is deferred until you actually dispose of the units.

    The year end tax statement will show that the tax deferred component is not required to be disclosed in your tax return.

    I read that Morningstar were doing some analysis of funds to reflect an "after tax" position when comparing funds.

    I havent seen the results yet.
