Ans: An HbA1c level of 5.8% indicates that your average blood sugar levels are slightly elevated. To lower these levels, focus on consuming carbohydrates that are high in fiber and nutrients, such as whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. Avoid refined carbs like white bread and sugary snacks. Use measuring cups and a kitchen scale to keep track of portion sizes. Include non-starchy vegetables, lean protein (like chicken/fish) or tofu, beans, nuts, with whole grains (like brown rice or quinoa). Eating at regular intervals helps maintain stable blood sugar levels. Limit processed foods. Drink plenty of water and limit sugary beverages.
Monitor blood sugar regularly. Stay active.

Ans: One thing is clear that you couldn't accept Biotechnology hons as your career. You told GMAT is your last option. Why you are saying so? Before opting for a course of three years students don't even ask them for only three hours. Without any decision they accept a subject and that is the major mistake. First ask yourself what is your choice. You can Give GMAT, but in management also there are more than twenty streams e.g. HR, Marketing, Finance, Operation, IT, Hospital Management, FINTECH etc.etc. So first be clear about your choice, Just follow me here and join me in LINKEDIN for getting future counselling. All the best. GOD BLESS YOU..............................:)

Ans: Since your CIBIL score is now a strong 765, it reflects a solid recovery despite past issues. However, to further improve it, focus on maintaining a perfect repayment history for all current credit. Avoid closing old accounts with good history, as they contribute positively. Regularly monitor your CIBIL report to ensure no errors. Over time, consistent and responsible credit behavior will enhance your score further.

Ans: Hello;

You may begin a monthly sip of 80 K into a combination of pure equity mutual funds and continue for 14 years.

At 50, your sip may yield you a corpus of around 3.5 Cr.

The PF corpus will grow over 14 years into a sum of around 1 Cr. No additional contributions are assumed, which may be deemed as surplus.

The gold holding if liquidated and invested in equity mutual funds as lumpsum will yield a corpus of around 0.5 Cr after 14 years.

If you do not wish to liquidate gold holdings then the monthly sip may be hiked to 90 K.

The gold holding will grow in value to around 0.25 Cr over 14 years and 90 K sip will yield corpus of 3.75 Cr+.

Considering both scenarios you achieve your target of 5 Cr in 14 years:

80 K sip-3.5 Cr in 14 years
Pf value-1.0 Cr in 14 years
Gold holdings converted to equity MF holdings: 0.5 Cr in 14 years
Grand Total -5.00 Cr

90 K sip- 3.75 Cr+ in 14 years
Pf Value- 1.00 Cr in 14 years
Gold Value- 0.25 Cr in 14 years
Grand Total -5.00 Cr+

Pure equity MF returns assumed at 12%, PF at 8% and Gold return at 7%.
