My baby was 10.5 months old.He was having fever for 2 days - was given paracetamol T - 90 for 2 days (1 ml every 4 hours). On the 3rd day,we took him to a paediatrician and was given paracetamol (with mefanamic acid) PF-M 250 - 3.5 ml at night. After sometime,he had some discomfort,and then trouble breathing & after 5 minutes,went into coma. Why this happened sir/madam?

Own Industrial Plot - Rs. 2.0 Cr Business Income Yearly Rs. 24.00 Lack Own Company Investment ( Machinery, Debtors Etc ) - Rs 2.40 Cr Mutual Fund & Share Market Investment Rs. 2.10 Cr Bank FD - Rs. 50.00 Lack Own 3 Flats in Pune - Rs. 75 lack, 50 Lack & 35 Lack ( Current Values ) Golds - Rs. 25.00 Lack Land - Agriculture - Rs. 50.00 Lack Term Insurances - Rs. 20.00 Lack ( Till Date Premium Paid ) Labilities.

This Assets & investment sufficient for maintain 7 family members Expenses after retirement ? ( 4 Adult + 3 Children (Below 5 Years) ). I will retire at the age of 45.
Ans: Hello;

What is the expected monthly rental from industrial plot and machinery?

Are you currently occupying one of the flats mentioned here or are all of them given on rent?

Also your term life insurance is very low. You should have minimum term insurance cover of 2.4 Cr.

You have good assets in agri land, industrial land, gold, real estate but they are relatively illiquid when need arises hence term insurance cover with riders for critical care and accident benefit are an absolute must!

Considering the home loan tenure of 17 years and 3 small kids in the family to be supported for education and decent lifestyle, I am not sure if you can retire in 7 years timeframe from now.

However I would appreciate your reply to my queries above, before I give my firm view about your retirement in 7 years timeframe.

Best wishes;

I have around 1 crore to invest. I am 61 years old retired defence officer and pension amounting to around ?1,50,000/- per month and medically covered. Need some sound investment plan for 1 crore. Don't have any liabilities?
Ans: Hello;

You may invest your corpus into following two funds in proportion of 50:50,

1. Kotak Arbitrage fund (low risk)
You may consider modest return of 6% from this scheme.

2. ICICI Pru equity savings fund (low to moderate risk). You may consider modest return of 8% from this scheme.

Theses investments will retain purchasing power of your corpus aginst inflation and deliver some real returns too with low to moderate risk.

This is in accordance with your age and commensurate risk appetite.

Happy Investing;

Hello Sir, I am 53 years, planned for retirement in 3 years. Have MF investment about 80 lacs, FDs about 20 Lacs, will invest 50 lacs in the coming three years through investment in MF. I don’t have any loan, living in my own home. My current monthly expenditure is Rs 65,000. How can I plan with the above corpus for my retirement so as get monthly payout? Whether to go for SWP - Balanced advantage funds or SWP- Debt funds for my monthly income? Is this correct plan? I will be needing 75,000 per month after my retirement. How much LTCG will I have to pay on 75,000 per month? Will there be any exit load while changing to SWP? What should be my investment strategy? Can you suggest some SWP funds?
Ans: Hello;

If you put your current corpus (1 Cr) in a equity savings type mutual fund with moderate risk(for eg Kotak equity savings fund)then it may grow to 1.3 Cr in 3 years.

Your 50 L additional investments staggered over 3 years in the same fund may yield you a corpus of around 60 L. (Modest return of 9% considered).

If you do SWP at 3% you may expect post tax income of 41.5 K.

Alternately if you buy an annuity from a life insurance company for your corpus then considering 6.5 % annuity rate you may expect post tax income of 77 K.

You can do SWP also at 6.5% rate but you run the risk of eating into your corpus heavily during prolonged drawdowns or sideways movements of the market.

SWP from equity oriented(hybrid) schemes is tax efficient solution for monthly income but it has its own set of risks and other negative aspects.

Ranking preference for retirement income should be as follows:
1. Statutory pension
2. POMIS
3. SCSS (Quarterly income)
4. FDs with big Govt banks
5. Rental income
6. Annuity
7. SWP

SWP is recommended for those who retire early, say in 40s, and also have a big corpus so that minimum SWP rate can meet monthly requirements and corpus can grow atleast to beat inflation for the longer retirement period.
