Shyamala Question by Shyamala on Dec 09, 2021Hindi
Money

I am 40 years old.

I am investing in mutual funds for my two daughters's studies (now in Class 6), their marriage and for our retirement at the age of 60.

I have been investing in these mutual funds for the past two years.

Company Plan Type Price
Kotak Flexicap Fund Direct Plan (Growth) Rs 5,000
SBI Blue Chip Fund Direct Plan (Growth) Rs 5,000
Aditya Birla Sun Life Frontline Equity Fund Direct Plan (Growth) Rs 5,000
Aditya Birla Sun Life Frontline Equity Fund Direct Plan (Growth) Rs 5,000
SBI Flexi Cap Fund Direct Plan (Growth) Rs 5,000
HDFC Small Cap Fund Direct Plan (Growth) Rs 5,000
Axis Midcap Fund Direct Plan (Growth) Rs 5,000

Last month, I have started these two funds.

1. DSP US Flexible Equity Fund, Direct Plan (Growth) -- Rs 2,500

2. Edelweiss Greater China Equity Offshore Fund, Direct Plan (Growth) -- Rs 2,500

Are my fund choices good for the investment period of 10-15 years to meet my requirements?

Ans: These are fine. However, they would need to be reviewed after six months.

Ans: Anand! It's great to see your commitment to investing for the future. Planning for the next 10 years is a wise move, and with your regular investments in diversified mutual funds, you're on the right track to building a substantial corpus.

To estimate the potential corpus after 10 years, we need to consider several factors such as the expected average annual return rate of the funds, any additional contributions you may make, and the compounding effect of your investments over time.

Since you've invested in a mix of small-cap, mid-cap, large-cap, and value funds, it indicates a diversified approach aimed at optimizing returns while managing risk.

To provide a precise estimate, it's advisable to use a mutual fund calculator or consult a financial advisor. They can input the specific details of your investments, including the current value, expected returns, and future contributions, to forecast the potential corpus after 10 years.

Remember, while forecasting future returns is essential for planning, it's equally crucial to stay invested consistently, review your portfolio periodically, and make adjustments as needed to stay aligned with your financial goals and risk tolerance.

Keep up the disciplined approach to investing, and you'll likely see your investments grow significantly over the next decade.

If yes kindly suggest some good funds. Hoping to hear from you soon Thanks
Ans: Hello;

Your mutual fund monthly sip of 8 K need to be increased to 10 K ( maybe you can add 2 K additional investment in Kotak ELSS tax saver fund).

PPF and other investment should continue as planned.

This will ensure your MF corpus + PPF will reach 60 L+ in value over 12 years.

LIC policy maturity sum and NPD will be bonus.

Funds are good. No need to change.

Happy Investing;
