Tax planning involves an efficient application of various provisions and loopholes of tax laws to reduce the incidence of tax and tax burden of an assessee.  This research paper aims at studying the investment pattern and the awareness of various tax planning schemes available for investment for academicians. Structured questionnaire was used to collect the data and 385 respondents were selected for the study by adopting stratified sampling technique from private educational institutions across the city of Bengaluru. The study revealed that the level of awareness among the academicians on various tax saving schemes is low and personal factors influence the investment decisions. Further, bank deposits are preferred investment avenues.
