How are the gains taxed?

All gains from liquid mutual funds are taxed as per your income tax slab, regardless of holding period.

If you invested ₹1,00,000 and earned ₹7,000 as profit:
If you're in 30% tax slab, you’ll pay ₹2,100 as tax (30% of ₹7,000).

No TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) is deducted by mutual funds for resident individuals.
You declare gains while filing ITR.
