I am parent of a Child who is in 9th grade. He is interested in PCM and not interested in other subjects. What options other than Engg exist for PCM candidates - as I believe he may not be able to crack the IIT and am not in favour of him doing Engg from a third rung college. I would like to have backup options in case he doesn’t get into a good college after 12th.

Ans: Hello Sir
Your child is just in 9th. You are saying he is interested in PCM i.e. mathematics and claims that he will not be able to crack JEE. The IQ of a child changes continuously. It is a hurry to predict what will happen when he will be in 12th grade. The students who are weak at schooling, do better in 12th grade. It is also not feasible to explore the options that are available after 1the 2th before 4 years. The education system is changing day by day and more options are available to the students every year. I would like to suggest as: (1) Please focus on his schooling syllabus (2) Try to improve his mathematics skills (3) ASk him to appear for all types of competitive exams held at the schooling level. (4) Join in foundation IIT course (5) Take a brief review of his 10th grade score and his understanding level. At last, no need to take the unnecessary tension at this stage. Keep faith in your child. For proper suggestion, please contact us again when his 10th grade exams will over and the expected score he is guessing.

Hello sir, What are the career options for students having PCM in 12th standard other than engineering degrees. My daughter is good at Maths and average in chemistry and physics also we as parents not able to decide what could be the appropriate graduation choice for her. Just to add she is also not inclined towards programming and AI.
Ans: Hello Ankit.
It is glad to hear that your daughter is good at Mathematics. She is average in Physics and chemistry. Considering these parameters, there are many choices for graduation in different fields. But you have to explore the right field as per her choice/interest. some of them are as follows:
(1) Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) i.e. B.Sc. in Mathematics / Physics / Chemistry / Economics
(2) B. Arch.
(3) B. Des.
(4) BBA
(5) Actuarial Science (Best for Math enthusiasts who enjoy solving real-world problems involving finance and risk.)
(6) Data Science / Data Analytics
(7) Chartered Accountancy (CA)
(8) Aviation
(9) Hotel Management / Culinary Arts
(10) Law (Integrated 5-year LLB)
(11) Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA)
(12) Defence (NDA)
From the above options, It would be great to go with UG in LLB and then PG in LLM. There are chances to become Jujdge at an early stage as there are special reservations for female candidates in judiciary posts. When a candidate joins LLB, he gets a lot of extra time to learn extracurricular activities and some relevant courses. This is a very cool and prestigious field. Generally, students ignore it at an early stage.

If you are dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.

What happens when a Mutual Fund company shuts down / gets sold off?
Ans: Hello;

If a mutual fund company gets sold or fails, the process is prescribed by SEBI:

In case MF company is Sold,
The new fund house may:
1. Continue the scheme with a new name and management.

2. Merge the scheme with similar funds and offer investors the option to exit without any exit load.

In case MF company shuts down,
The fund house will:
1. Pay out investors based on the fund's last recorded Net Asset Value (NAV) and the number of units the investor holds, after deducting expenses.

2. If the company is not in a position to do so then SEBI may liquidate the funds assets and distribute the proceeds to unit holders.

It is also pertinent to note that mutual fund regulation in India is one of the most stringent and hence best, from investor's point of view, globally.

This is not just in theory. We have seen how the Franklin Templeton abrupt closure of debt funds was handled with surgical precision, by SEBI, with no loss to unitholders.


Skin in the game regulation mandates that 20% salary of key mutual fund personnel and fund managers is paid in terms of units of their funds with a 3 year lock-in.

The stocks and bonds purchased by the AMC for the fund are held by a custodian, appointed by the trust that administers the fund.

The trust engages into a investment management agreement with the AMC for managing the fund as per their mandate and within regulatory guidelines.

Registrar and Transfer Agents handle the investor registration,kyc, maintaining records, providing account and tax statements etc.

Happy Investing;
