As the name suggests, this category of funds invests in both the asset classes - equity & debt. At least 65% will be invested in equity and the remaining will get invested in debt. You are getting a ready made portfolio that invests between equity and debt & need not worry on rebalancing the portfolio as the same is taken care by the professional fund manager.
As for as taxation goes, these funds will get the treatment of an equity fund. There is no dividend distribution tax & no long term capital gain tax if the units are sold after 1 year.
