I just turned 50 and I have below portfolio and I’m looking to build 10 Crore portfolio when I retire in next 10 years at 60.
1. PF: 50 lac and approx 40K per month contribution will continue till retirement.
2. PPF: Currently 2 Lacs, 8.5k pm only will continue here.
3. Current MF portfolio is 15 lacs. SIP OF 1.25 lac spread across Small cap, large cap, Parag Parekh Flexi cap, Motilal Oswal Large and Midcap and NIFTBEES 25K per month SIP stated from Jan 2026.
4. Sukanya schema: 8 lac current balance but further deposit only 50K per yea
5. Real estate, House#1. Self use 2 bhk in good location worth 1 cr, no loans outstanding.
House#2 - 1 BHK in good location worth 50 lac, 22 lac outstanding loan and 19 K rent.
House#3- 2 bhk remote location worth 35 lac 12K rent and 10 lac outstanding loan.
House#4, 3 bhk flat in good location worth 1.25 crore 35 lac loan will get possession in 3-4 months.
6. Bought land in native of 20 lac currently valued at 1 cr.
I’m planning to sell house#2 and repay other house loans as much as possible. EMI that I will save, want to divert the funds to MF investment for next 10 years.
Can you suggest me what changes or approach I need to follow to 10 cr at retirement and will this be enough or I need to target higher corpus at retirement.
Note. Major expense My daughter Higher education expense coming in next 2 years and I need to allocate 15 to 20 lacs per year.
One plan I’m thinking sell house, don’t repay other loans, invest the return from house sale into MF lumpsum 25 lacs and start SWP from 2nd year of higher education so some part from SWP and some from education loan.
Pls advice
Thanks.
Ans: Hi Pankaj,
It is really great that you have build a good amount at your age. Let us analyse all in detail.
You are looking forward to build a 10 crore retirement corpus in next 10 years. And your current investments include:
- PF - 50 lakhs; 40k monthly contribution will grow it to 2 crores in next 10 years.
- PPF - currently 2 lakhs. Any further contribution is not required as it gives only 7% tax free return. Rather redirect the monthly investment amount to aggressive mutual funds.
- SSY - currently 8 lakhs and further yearly deposit is good for you to continue.
- MF - currently 15 lakhs with a monthly SIP of 1.25 lakhs. This will grow to 4.5 crores if you do a step up of 10% with an assumed CAGR of 13%.
- Another major portion of your current assets is in real estate which offers less liquidity as compared to other assets. Total net value is 28 lakhs + 25 lakhs + 90 lakhs + 1 crore >> totalling to 2.4 crores and a loan of 67 lakhs. (not counting the self use flat as that is a necessity, not an asset that you will sell).
You are considering selling your flat worth 50 lakhs from which you will get 28 lakhs. You can reinvest this entire amount in mutual funds to meet education requirement for your daughter's education.
Although this amount will not be sufficient, you will need more monthly or lumpsum investment for this particular goal.
>> Your goal to reach 10 crores after 10 years will only fulfil if you liquidate another 1 or 2 properties that you hold. This will lessen the burden of education goal, release your EMI burden and increase your focus on increasing monthly SIP to more than double of the current value.
This way you can fulfil your goals. But make sure that the funds you are currently investing in are as per your risk appetite and other factors. Any misalignment can negate the overall required performance.
Thus it is better for you to connect with a professional advisor who will help you wrt mutual fund investment.
Hence do consult a a professional Certified Financial Planner - a CFP who can guide you with exact funds to invest in keeping in mind your age, requirements, financial goals and risk profile. A CFP periodically reviews your portfolio and suggest any amendments to be made, if required.
Let me know if you need more help.
