Hope you are doing great. I am 32 years old. I earn roughly 1.1lkh per month. My PPF portfolio is around 19lkh(started in 2018) giving 12.5k per month(From next year 80CC tax benefit will be of no use) lock in till 2033, I also have SIP of 30k (Axis Index- 5k, Axis Midcap-5k & SBI Small cap-20k(Since-2022 & add lumpsum sometimes))- Invested Value Now Rs 12.26lkh & Return- Rs 15.84lkh. I Invest in mostly blue chip equity stocks time to time from 2021 & have invested round about 10lkh & return is 15lkh. My monthly spend is around 30k. I have stacked emergency fund in India Post & Liquid fund. I can invest max 30k if PPF continues & 42.5k if PPF doesn't continue after the lock in is over. With 5% step up annually. I have a few questions: 1. Since PPF will not contribute to my tax savings from next year what should my approach be? Stop PPF & wait till 2033 for it to mature. And invest 12.5k SIP in MF? If yes where should I & in what ratio. 2.I want to reach the goal of 4-5cr in the next 15 years. Kindly guide me. Thanks in advance. Regards
Ans: Hi Subho,

There is no benefit of continuing your PPF investments for tax benefit. Redirect extra 12.5k per month to mutual funds.
But you cannot close your PPF account before 2033, hence contribute only 500 per year to keep the account active.

Total new monthly contribution in MF - 42.5k.
Current selection of funds is not recommended. Your overall contribution in small cap is way too much to continue. Distribute equally in all 3 funds from now on. And can add a flexicap fund of 10k per month in your portfolio.

Try to increase your SIP whenever possible. As with current allocationand contribution, you will get 3.4 crores after 15 years. Where as if you do an annual stepup of 10%, you can get 5 crores after 15 years which you want.

Also as your portfolio size is big, taking a professional advisor's help is recommended. And avoid investing in direct stocks. Reinvest the stock money into mutual funds for a consistent and safe growth.

Hence do consult 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.

Hi, I'm sorry in advance for a lengthy read and numerous questions. I'm 38 years old and would like to retire in next 10 years or less and I would like to reach portfolio worth 4 CRs and then retire. I already have a term insurance of 2 CR and gold of around half a KG. I currently have 20Lkh (15 for investment and 5 as emergency fund) that I would like to invest in lumpsum. My current portfolio (around 1 year old) is as follows and their Current value: SIPs were stopped in Jan 2025 due to financial reasons. 1. Parag Parikh Flexi Cap Fund : 181920 (+9.93%) 2. Quant Small Cap Fund: 166550 (-1.74%) 3. Motilal Oswal Midcap Fund: 1,66,193 (+1.03%) 4. Nippon India Large Cap fund: 157025 (+8.67%) 5. HDFC Balanced Advantage Fund: 132040 (+6.06%) 6. Nippon India Nifty 500 Momentum 50 Index Fund: 84714 (-15.30%) 7. Stock portfolio: 810000 (+6%) I need help with a few of things. 1. Investing the large sum of 15 lkhs: which MFs should I invest this amount in, now? If so, should I spread that amount in the MFs I already have or go for new and at what proportion? Or is it not the right time to invest the bulk amount? 2.SIP: I would like to reinstate SIP of 1.3 lkhs: which MFs should I invest this amount in, now? If so, should I spread that amount in the MFs I already have or go for new and at what proportion? 3. 5 lakh emergency fund: Which specific asset class/MF should this be invested so that I can make a decent return better than savings account while this amount is easily accessible for emergencies. Please suggest specific fund even if it is debt/liquid/hybrid fund. Thank you for your help in advance.
Ans: Hi,

It is great that you are taking a step forward towards your early retirement after 10 years. Let us analyse things one at a time.
1. Emergency Fund - You want to put 5 lakhs as emergency fund for you. It is a good amount and you can park in liquid mutual fund. Go for ICICI or HDFC liquid funds for this.
2. Term Insurance - 2 crores cover is good enough. If you share monthly income, would be able to calculate exact amount more accurately.
3. Health Insurance - Take one with a minimum cover of 15 lakhs to cover yourself and family.
4. Current MF - currently around 8.5 lakhs value. Good funds. Continue this amount in these.
5. Stocks - current value of 8.1 lakhs. Direct stock investment is very risky and nor recommended as it requires complete tracking and knowledge. You can consider shifting the entire amount in mutual funds for your retirement.

You want to invest a lumpsum of 15 lakhs and start a SIP of 1.3 lakhs again. You can choose to invest 15 lakhs in equal proportion in your current mutual funds and start SIP in the same funds as well.
However, you can also consider consulting a professional advisor who can build a portfolio for you for all your investments. An advisor guides you with right investment throughout and monitors all investments periodically to cater the requirement and market movements.

Your goal is to reach a corpus of 4 crores in 10 years. With current investments you can only get 3.5 crores in 10 years. You need to increase your SIP by 10% each year to get 5 crores.

Also make sure you have no financial liability left when you retire. And have a dedicated fund for other major goals such as kids education, travel, their marriage etc.

Hence do consult 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.
