Question by Shivprakash - Sep 05, 2023Hindi

Money

hi sir i am 41 years old, now i want invest in mutual fund for my retirement and for my two sons one of it is 15 years and second is 10 years old. i can invest 5000 rs per month please suggest me funds that can i invest.

Ans: Given your investment horizon for retirement and your sons' education, you have a long-term horizon which allows you to consider equity-oriented mutual funds for potentially higher returns. Here are some suggestions tailored to your needs:

For Retirement (Long-Term):
Large Cap Funds: These funds invest in well-established companies, offering stability and growth potential. Given your longer investment horizon, consider allocating a portion to large-cap funds to provide stability to your portfolio.
Multi-Cap Funds: These funds offer diversification across market capitalizations and are suitable for long-term wealth creation. They can adapt to different market conditions, providing flexibility to the fund manager.
For Sons' Education (Medium to Long-Term):
Balanced Funds or Hybrid Funds: These funds invest in both equities and debt, offering a balance between growth and stability. They can be suitable for medium to long-term goals like your sons' education.
Children's Gift Funds or Children's Education Funds: Some mutual funds offer specific funds designed for children's future needs, providing a tailored solution for education expenses.
Considering your investment amount and goals, you can consider investing in a combination of the above-mentioned funds to achieve diversification and align with your financial goals. Here's a potential allocation:

Large Cap Funds: 40%
Multi-Cap Funds: 40%
Balanced or Hybrid Funds: 20%
Remember, it's essential to review your investments periodically and adjust your portfolio as needed based on performance, changing financial goals, and market conditions. Consult with a financial advisor to ensure your investment strategy aligns with your financial goals, risk tolerance, and investment horizon.

Question by Aditya - Nov 01, 2023Hindi

Money

I am 21 & would like to invest in Mutual Funds To start with I can invest up to Rs.10k & will increase gradually.Kindly suggest me good mutual funds.- Adita T

Ans: Adita! Starting your investment journey at 21 is a commendable decision, much like planting a seedling that can grow into a sturdy tree over time.

For beginners like you, a diversified approach is often recommended. Look for mutual funds that spread their investments across different sectors and company sizes. This approach can help balance out the highs and lows of individual sectors or companies, somewhat like not putting all your eggs in one basket.

Consider starting with a mix of large-cap and multi-cap equity funds for growth potential, supplemented by a balanced fund for stability. As you gain confidence and experience, you can explore other categories like mid-cap and small-cap funds for higher growth potential.

Remember, the key is consistency and patience. Even a small, regular investment can compound significantly over time, thanks to the magic of compounding. Keep an eye on your investments, but avoid the temptation to constantly tweak or react to short-term market movements.

Lastly, always align your investments with your financial goals and risk tolerance. Happy investing, Adita!

Ans: Given your moderate risk tolerance and goal of generating high returns, you may consider investing in a diversified portfolio of mutual funds with exposure to different market segments. Look for funds that have a track record of delivering consistent returns over the long term. Some options to consider include large-cap funds for stability, mid-cap and multi-cap funds for potential growth, and thematic or sectoral funds for higher returns (with higher risk). However, it's important to note that higher returns usually come with higher risk, so ensure that your investment choices align with your risk tolerance and investment horizon. Additionally, consult with a financial advisor to tailor a portfolio that meets your specific needs and goals.

Financial Planner - Answered on Apr 28, 2024

Asked by Anonymous - Apr 27, 2024Hindi

Money

I want to purchase auto insurance for my Maruti Ertiga which I purchased two years ago. Which auto insurance policy will best look after my interests in the event of an accident which could lead to fatalities or lead me permanently disabled? I want to choose an auto insurance policy that will take care of hospitalisation as well as permanent disability.

Ans: In the unfortunate event of an accident with your Maruti Ertiga, a comprehensive car insurance policy will best serve your interests. Here's why:

Comprehensive Coverage:

• Third-party Liability: This is mandatory by law and covers any injuries or property damage caused to a third party due to an accident involving your car.
• Own Damage Cover: This protects your Maruti Ertiga from damages caused by accidents, theft, fire, natural calamities, etc.

Additional Coverage for Permanent Disability and Hospitalisation:

• Personal Accident (PA) Cover for Owner-Driver and Passengers: This add-on provides a lump sum payout in case of death or permanent disability due to an accident. You can extend this cover to include your passengers as well.
• Medical Expenses Cover: This add-on reimburses hospitalisation expenses incurred due to injuries sustained in an accident.

Here's what to consider when choosing an insurance provider:

• Claim Settlement Ratio (CSR): Look for insurers with a high CSR, which indicates a good record of settling claims promptly.
• Network Garages: Opt for an insurer with a wide network of cashless garages for repairs to ensure a hassle-free experience.
• Customer Service: Choose a company known for providing prompt and helpful customer service.

Popular Car Insurance Providers in India:

• Acko General Insurance
• HDFC Ergo
• The Oriental Insurance Company
• National Insurance Company
• Bajaj Allianz General Insurance

Researching and Comparing Policies

• Use online insurance aggregator websites to compare quotes from different providers. These websites allow you to input details about your Maruti Ertiga, your driving history, and desired coverage options. They will then provide you with quotes from various insurers, allowing you to compare prices and features.

Consulting a Financial Advisor

• Consider consulting a financial advisor who can help you assess your specific needs and recommend the most suitable car insurance policy for your Maruti Ertiga.

Health

If we have high blood sugar. Then is it not good to avoid meal and go for fasting . To normalise sugar level. Because anti diabetic drug makes pancreas to release more insulin. Whereas body does not need so high sugar. So is it not better to first skip meal so that sugar becomes normal on its own. Because insulin release by drug stimulation is useless because thee is no requirement of excess sugar by the body. But doctors simply prescribe drug . They do not say that one must try to normalise sugar by reducing food intake. Pl. Clarify ?

Ans: Yes dietary and lifestyle management along with proper medication is very important!!

Incase of fasting, you need to do it under proper medical guidance!

I am having hunch back (forward shoulder) from last 5-6 years and my poster is very bad. I am not having any pain or something but i am worried about my posture and also this is impacting my confidence. Can you help

Ans: Thank you for your questions. I agree with your concerns about posture and its impact on confidence. I recommend consulting a physiotherapist to assess your condition and determine the underlying reasons for forward shoulder posture. Activities that involve prolonged periods of looking down, such as using smartphones or laptops and sitting for extended periods, can contribute to this issue. Stretching and strengthening exercises like Scapular Squeezes, T stretches, shoulder bracing, and shoulder retractions are generally beneficial. Improving ergonomics can also help prevent further deterioration. I wish you a speedy recovery.
