    I think you may choose between -
    1.Magnum Taxgain
    2.Principal Tax Savings Fund
    3.Birla Tax Relief

    The principal Tax Savings is a small cap dominated fund so it comes with high risk and high volatility but has a potential to deliver high returns.

    So choose one and invest regularly through SIPs rather than One time Lump sum Investment.

    According to me, good tax savings funds are -
    • Birla tax saver,
    • Sbi magnum tax gain,
    • ICICI prudential tax saver.
    In order to get a Loan, you first need to prove that you don't need it.

    DSP ML Tax savings Fund is also a good tax saving fund. Though has given very good return but has also fallen to a large extent in the current market fall. It is a comparitively new fund.
    I think the funds mentioned above are better.

    ICICI Direct is online trading website, not an ELSS.

    If my opinion is considered, i would suggest you to go for SBI Magnum TaxGain. Choosing a government firm is wise. As far as safety is concerned, you can rest assure.
