Hello Sir, I'm 42 yrs and I have invested a lumpsum amount of Rs.25 lakhs in various Mutual funds since last 7 years. Recently I have started a monthly SIP of Rs.5000/-. Also, I have an FD of Rs.27 lakhs. I have a family heaIth Insurance, an Accidental insurance and a Term Insurance also. I want to build a corpus of Rs. 10 crores in 10 years. Please guide me how to proceed further to achieve my goal. -- Thank you

Ans: Hello;

25 L corpus invested in mutual funds, since last 7 years(present value not provided), may grow into a sum of 2 Cr, 10 years from now.

If you transfer FDs(27 L) into mutual fund investments then this may yield you a sum of 91.65 L, 10 year hence.

2 Cr + 0.9165 Cr= 2.9165 Cr
10-2.9165=7.0835 Cr

So our aim should be to generate corpus in excess of 7.0835 Cr over 10 years through SIP.

An sip of 2.9 L per month may yield us a sum of 7.15 Cr after 10 years.

If you feel this is a tough challenge then you may increase time to retirement as 15 years.

In this the MF & FD converted to MF corpus over 22 and 15 years may grow into sums of 3.68 & 1.69 Cr.

So 10-(3.68+1.69)=4.63 Cr

To achieve balance corpus of 4.63 Cr you may do a minimum monthly sip of 80 K for 15 years. A modest return of 13% is assumed from pure equity mutual fund schemes.

No EPF or NPS is considered since information not available.

Happy Investing!!

Ans: Hello Girish. Your portfolio report is in good shape. From your current 12k sips per month, I would suggest increasing it to 60-70k sips per month to achieve the corpus of 2 Cr in 10 years. A better peer group scheme should be considered instead of the Small cap category schemes i.e. Franklin and HDFC. For your future investment, you may include Multicap category in your portfolio.

Ans: Creating a corpus of 5 crores in 10 years is an ambitious goal, but with careful planning and strategic investments, it's achievable. Your current investment portfolio and savings habits provide a solid foundation for reaching this milestone.

Given your age of 34 and the 10-year time horizon, we'll need to focus on a growth-oriented investment strategy while ensuring diversification and risk management.

Let's start by optimizing your mutual fund portfolio. While you have a diversified mix of funds, we may need to make some adjustments to align with your goal. Consider increasing allocations to high-growth potential funds like mid-cap and small-cap funds, which historically have outperformed broader market indices.

Regularly review your portfolio to monitor performance and make necessary adjustments based on market conditions and your evolving financial goals.

Additionally, continue your disciplined approach towards savings. Your LIC, PPF, and NPS contributions provide stability and long-term growth opportunities. Ensure you maximize contributions to these instruments within permissible limits to harness their full potential for wealth accumulation.

Remember to stay patient and committed to your financial plan. Building a significant corpus requires time and consistency. As a Certified Financial Planner, I'm here to guide you every step of the way and help you navigate through market fluctuations and uncertainties.

With determination and strategic financial planning, you can achieve your goal of creating a 5 crore corpus in 10 years.

I want to create a corpus of rs. 10 cr in next 10 years.. please guide

Ans: Creating a corpus of Rs. 10 crores in the next 10 years is an ambitious but achievable goal. Let's analyze your current financial situation and create a detailed plan to help you reach your objective.

Current Financial Snapshot
Income and Expenses:

Monthly Income: Rs. 1.27 lakh
Home Loan EMI: Rs. 25,000
Net Monthly Income after EMI: Rs. 1.02 lakh
Existing Investments:

Mutual Funds: Rs. 45 lakh
Fixed Deposits: Rs. 15 lakh
Life Insurance Policies: Rs. 28 lakh
Sukanya Samriddhi Account: Rs. 16 lakh
Home Loan Outstanding:

Rs. 26 lakh
Strategy to Achieve Rs. 10 Crores in 10 Years
Step 1: Enhance Savings and Investments
Evaluate Monthly Savings:

With a net income of Rs. 1.02 lakh after EMI, you should aim to save and invest a significant portion.
Assume you save 50% of this amount, which is Rs. 51,000 per month.
Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs):

SIPs are a disciplined way to invest regularly in mutual funds.
Allocate Rs. 51,000 per month towards SIPs in a diversified portfolio of equity mutual funds.
Increase your SIP amount by 10% each year to account for salary increments and inflation.
Step 2: Diversify Your Investments
Mutual Funds:

Continue investing in a mix of large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap equity mutual funds.
Consider adding sector-specific funds for more growth opportunities.
Hybrid Funds:

Allocate a portion to aggressive hybrid funds for a balanced risk-return profile.
These funds invest in both equity and debt instruments.
Debt Funds:

Maintain some investments in debt mutual funds for stability and lower risk.
Debt funds can provide liquidity and reduce overall portfolio volatility.
Step 3: Optimize Existing Investments
Fixed Deposits:

FDs offer low returns. Gradually move funds from FDs to higher-yielding investments.
Keep a small portion in FDs for emergency funds.
Life Insurance Policies:

Evaluate the performance and returns of your life insurance policies.
If they are not performing well, consider surrendering or partially withdrawing and reinvesting in mutual funds.
Sukanya Samriddhi Account:

Continue contributing to your daughter’s Sukanya Samriddhi Account.
It offers tax benefits and good returns, securing her future.
Step 4: Accelerate Debt Repayment
Home Loan:

Consider prepaying your home loan with surplus funds to reduce interest burden.
Aim to be debt-free sooner, freeing up more money for investments.
Step 5: Plan for Tax Efficiency
Tax-Advantaged Investments:

Utilize tax-saving mutual funds (ELSS) for long-term capital gains and tax deductions.
Maximize contributions to PF and PPF for tax benefits and stable returns.
Step 6: Monitor and Rebalance Portfolio
Regular Reviews:

Conduct quarterly reviews of your investment portfolio.
Rebalance to maintain desired asset allocation and capture market opportunities.
Stay Informed:

Keep yourself updated with market trends and financial news.
Consult with a Certified Financial Planner for professional guidance.
Understanding Mutual Funds: Categories, Advantages, and Risks
Equity Mutual Funds:

Invest in stocks, offering high returns but with higher risk.
Ideal for long-term goals like retirement and wealth creation.
Categories: Large-cap, mid-cap, small-cap, sector-specific.
Hybrid Mutual Funds:

Mix of equity and debt investments, balancing risk and return.
Suitable for moderate risk-takers.
Debt Mutual Funds:

Invest in fixed-income securities, offering stability and lower risk.
Suitable for conservative investors and short-term goals.
Advantages of Mutual Funds:

Diversification reduces risk by investing in various securities.
Professional management by experienced fund managers.
Liquidity allows easy buying and selling of units.
SIPs promote disciplined investing and cost averaging.
Tax benefits through ELSS funds.
Risks of Mutual Funds:

Market risk affects equity funds due to market fluctuations.
Credit risk in debt funds if issuers default.
Interest rate risk impacts debt funds with changing rates.
Liquidity risk in some funds, making it hard to sell holdings without losses.
Power of Compounding
Compounding is earning returns on both initial principal and accumulated returns.
Longer investment duration amplifies the compounding effect.
Start early and stay invested for maximum benefits.
Disadvantages of Direct Funds
Direct Funds:

Bought directly from fund houses, saving on distributor commissions.
Lower expense ratios but lack guidance from professionals.
Disadvantages:

No expert advice, leading to suboptimal choices.
Time-consuming and requires significant effort.
Risk of mismanagement without professional guidance.
Benefits of Regular Funds through MFD with CFP Credential:

Expert advice and professional management.
Customized portfolios based on goals and risk tolerance.
Ongoing support and regular portfolio reviews.
Peace of mind knowing investments are managed by professionals.
Action Plan to Achieve Rs. 10 Crore Goal
Enhance Monthly Savings:

Save and invest Rs. 51,000 per month in diversified mutual funds.
Increase SIPs by 10% annually.
Diversify Investments:

Continue with equity mutual funds, adding sector-specific and hybrid funds.
Maintain some debt funds for stability.
Optimize Existing Investments:

Move funds from FDs to higher-yielding investments.
Evaluate and possibly reinvest insurance policies in mutual funds.
Accelerate Debt Repayment:

Prepay home loan to reduce interest burden and free up funds.
Plan for Tax Efficiency:

Utilize ELSS, PF, and PPF for tax benefits and stable returns.
Regularly Review and Rebalance Portfolio:

Conduct quarterly reviews and rebalance as needed.
Stay informed about market trends and seek professional advice.
Final Insights
Achieving a corpus of Rs. 10 crores in 10 years requires disciplined saving, smart investing, and regular portfolio management. Diversify your investments, optimize existing assets, and aim for tax efficiency. Prepay your home loan to reduce debt burden and free up funds for investments. Stay committed to your SIPs, increase them annually, and regularly review your portfolio. Seek guidance from a Certified Financial Planner for professional advice and peace of mind. By following this comprehensive plan, you can achieve your financial goal and secure your family's future.

Question by Moumita - Dec 24, 2024Hindi

Relationship

I am talking to a boy for arranged marriage. He said me that come to Bangalore you will have a good career. But he is also asking me if I can leave my job if I have got some responsibility in life to which I said yes. Then I said that I prefer own cooked food over cook cooked food. Then he asked me if I can cook for 2 people to which I said that I will have to look if I can do. He seems to be supportive when he talks on phone. Is he brain washing me, should I say yes or no. Is he a red flag. What should I do.

Ans: Dear Moumita,
It isn't fair to label someone as a red flag over a few days of conversation; seeing women take up responsibilities of home and disregard their own career or needs might be what he has seen growing up and it's not him being a red flag intentionally. A lot has to do with upbringing. What I can suggest with confidence is that if you love having your own job, and your own financial independence then please be vocal about it. Just because he is asking you to leave your job doesn't mean you have to do it- you are only in the talking phase. You are not married yet. You have ample time to rethink your choice. Cooking and housework shouldn’t just be your responsibility, just like earning and providing shouldn’t only be his. It’s about sharing the load equally. Having said that, I should also mention that every relationship is different, and each couple finds their own way of balancing things. Ultimately, everything boils down to what you are comfortable with- please take some time to figure that out and only then decide whether or not to take this relationship ahead.

Hope this helps.

Relationship

Hi, My GF of last 2.5 years gets attracted to men very often and shares her feelings with me as well. She developed feelings for a guy a year back and he kissed her once when they were drunk. She said she didn't had time to react and Later they had a talk, she informed me that they chose to be friends, she doesn't seems to in talking terms any more with him. She talks to lot of male friends who she claims are from LGBTQ community which I doubt whether all are or not. I always say she has the freedom to move on any given day but she can't cheat but she doesn't think getting attracted to multiple men and acting on it as cheating . She says, she is free spirited and she is ok even if I visit a prostitute house. She is in her early 30s. She had a crush another guy on insta and said she will definitely try him if he wasn't lot younger than her but later said he is her best friend and she is in constant touch. Lately, she says vibe doesn't match and have problem saying I am her BF. I tried to move on from relationship 2-3 times because of her above traits and now stopped talking since few days. She had both mental and medical issues. Can I trust her and will she have any mental issues again?

Ans: While it’s commendable that she is honest about her feelings and gives you the freedom to make your choices, it’s equally important to consider whether her values and actions align with what you need in a partner. Relationships thrive when there’s mutual respect, understanding, and agreement on boundaries. If her actions or mindset make you feel undervalued or emotionally unsafe, it’s crucial to reflect on whether this relationship is truly serving your well-being.

The fact that you’ve tried to move on multiple times suggests that there is a deeper discomfort within you about the dynamics between you two. Trust is not just about fidelity; it’s about emotional safety, reliability, and mutual respect. If her behavior consistently makes you question her commitment or your place in her life, that erosion of trust can become difficult to rebuild.

As for her mental and medical challenges, it’s important to approach those with empathy, but also with a clear understanding that you cannot "fix" or "heal" someone unless they are actively seeking and working toward their own well-being. If she has not addressed her mental health or continues behaviors that affect the relationship without taking responsibility, it can lead to ongoing strain for you. Her mental health challenges are not excuses for harmful behavior, nor should they become reasons for you to sacrifice your own emotional health.

You’ve already shown patience and willingness to work through these challenges, but the repeated cycles of doubt and frustration may be a sign that the relationship is taking more from you than it’s giving. Ask yourself if you feel supported, valued, and emotionally safe in this partnership. Relationships should bring out the best in you and your partner, not leave you questioning your worth or constantly trying to accommodate behavior that feels unfair.

Taking a step back, as you’ve done now, can give you the clarity to evaluate what you truly want and need in a relationship. If trust feels irreparably broken or if her behaviors and values are fundamentally misaligned with yours, it may be time to consider whether staying in this relationship is the healthiest choice for you. You deserve a partner who respects your boundaries and builds a connection based on mutual trust and understanding.

If you decide to stay, open communication and possibly couples’ therapy could help bridge the gaps. If you choose to move on, trust that this decision is about prioritizing your well-being and finding a relationship that aligns with your values and needs. Either way, your happiness and emotional health should come first.

Hi Anu, My husband is in living relationship with another lady since April in another country. At the same time, he acused me as selfish for doing my PhD in my native country and put me in mental trauma by verbally accusing.Also,he was very clever, he step by step get rid of all the things related to our relationship and took bank all the bank fund in my name.After that he blocked me.I had doubts on his extra marital and asked him 1000 times. But he simply insulted and blocked me from all social media eventually. After finishing my PhD pre submission, when i went to meet him, in his place. I found him, shifted to another apartment. But i somehow, found it and there i came to knew, he is staying with a lady there for past months. I broke down and informed all his friends. Now he is threatening me for signing mutual consent, otherwise he will make false allegations and tore my good name..Already he partially did that. When I talked to his friends, he was crooked enough to tell them, i am a psycho, ademant, career oriented lady. I told him i am ready to give him mutual divorce after once we met in person. I want to ask him why he cheated me.but he is not ready to meet, he is asking me to talk to his advocate. What shall I do now?

Ans: While it’s natural to want answers and closure, sometimes people who betray us in such profound ways refuse to provide the accountability we seek. Closure doesn’t always come from the other person. It can come from recognizing that their actions stem from their own flaws and failings, not because of anything lacking in you. It can come from choosing to let go of the need for explanations and focusing instead on rebuilding your own sense of peace and purpose.

You’ve already demonstrated incredible strength by standing up to him and exposing the truth to his friends. That takes courage. But this is also a time to lean into your inner resilience and ensure you’re supported by professionals who can guide you through the legal and emotional complexities. Speaking with a family lawyer who understands the nuances of your situation will help you feel empowered to navigate his threats and protect your rights. At the same time, connecting with a counselor or therapist can offer a safe space to process your emotions and begin to heal from this trauma.

It’s okay to grieve the relationship and the betrayal. It’s okay to feel anger, sadness, or even numbness at times. These emotions are all part of the process of moving forward. Allow yourself to feel them without judgment, but also remind yourself that this pain is temporary and does not define you. You are more than what has been done to you.

When you feel ready, try to shift your focus away from him and his actions and toward your own well-being and future. You’ve worked so hard on your PhD and have built a life full of potential and possibility. This chapter doesn’t have to define the rest of your story. You are capable of creating a life that is free from manipulation and filled with self-respect, joy, and the kind of peace that comes from living authentically.

Lean on the people who believe in you, who see your value, and who can remind you of your strength when you feel unsure. Remember, you don’t have to handle this alone. Whether it’s through professional guidance or emotional support from trusted loved ones, there are paths forward that will help you rise above this situation. You deserve a life where your worth is honored, your boundaries are respected, and your happiness takes center stage.

Relationship

Hello, I am a 35-year woman from Manali, divorced for three years now. My family is constantly pushing me to get remarried, saying it’s ‘for my own good.’ But honestly, I don’t feel the need for marriage again. I’m financially stable, have great friends, and I genuinely enjoy my independence. Despite explaining this to my family multiple times, they keep bringing up alliances and even guilt-trip me, saying things like, ‘Who will take care of you when you’re older?’ or ‘What will society think?’ I’m exhausted from these arguments and feel like I’m being cornered into something I don’t want. How do I stand firm in my decision while maintaining my relationship with my family? How do I help them understand that being single is a choice, not a problem to fix?

Ans: When speaking to your family, try to approach the conversation from a place of empathy. Acknowledge their intentions by telling them you understand their worries and that they want what they believe is best for you. Express gratitude for their care—it often helps diffuse their defensiveness. However, it’s equally important to gently but firmly assert that your happiness is not dependent on remarriage. Share how content you are with your current life, emphasizing your financial stability, fulfilling friendships, and personal growth.

Sometimes families struggle to accept choices that diverge from traditional norms, often driven by fears about societal perceptions or imagined futures. Reassure them that your decision is rooted in thoughtful consideration and self-awareness, and that you’ve built a life that brings you peace and joy. If they bring up concerns like loneliness or old age, you can address these by expressing how you’ve cultivated strong support systems and how your independence equips you to face challenges.

It might also help to set gentle boundaries. For instance, you could say, “I appreciate that you care for me, but I’d like our time together to focus on enjoying each other’s company instead of discussing remarriage.” It’s okay to redirect conversations or take a break from them when you feel cornered.

Lastly, remember that changing deeply ingrained beliefs takes time. Your family might not immediately understand your perspective, but consistency and calm communication will help over time. It’s not your responsibility to conform to their expectations if doing so diminishes your sense of self. By staying true to your values while showing compassion for their concerns, you’re paving the way for mutual respect and understanding.

Ans: Hello! If you have taken emergency contraception
4 days prior to periods,
There are high chances your periods can get delayed.
The morning-after pill, also known as the I-pill, can delay your period by up to one week. However, in rare cases, your period may be delayed for several weeks. If your period is more than a week late, or if it is lighter than usual, you should take a pregnancy test and speak to a doctor.

Dr, I’m 35 years old from Jamnagar, and my husband and I have been trying for a baby for the past year, but nothing seems to be working. I recently visited a fertility clinic in neighborhood , and after a few tests, they mentioned that I might have blocked fallopian tubes. The gynaec also talked about possible treatments like surgery or IVF, but I’m really confused and worried. Should I go for a laparoscopy to check the severity, or are there any other alternatives that could help me? I’m really anxious and just want to understand my options better before making any decisions.

Ans: History noted.
Considering your age 35 years, trying to conceive since, one year and few test done, one of which suggest possibility of tubal blockage, there are various modalities of treatment.
Firstly, you can do laparoscopy to note the severity if blockage and do tubal cannulation.
Tubal cannulation is often the first line of treatment for patients with blocked fallopian tubes because it's a non-invasive procedure that's widely available.
Tubal cannulation is a procedure that can unblock fallopian tubes and is highly successful for proximal tubal blockages, with a success rate of over 80%. However, it may not be successful for all patients and is not recommended for distal tubal occlusions.
This procedure if successful can avoid IVF procedure. Laparoscopy has…
Yes, before ivf get all your blood test, ecg, 2 D echo, xray chest to rule out any illness
Same with your husband to get semen analysis and viral markers with blood sugars to be done.

Hello Doctor, I’m in my late 20s, and lately, I’ve been feeling like something’s off with my body. My periods either show up way too early, sometimes not at all for months. And, I’ve been putting on weight even though I haven’t changed my diet or exercise routine. My skin has also turned into a battlefield with acne all over, which I never used to have before. My cousin, who’s around my age, just found out she has PCOS, and her mom (my aunt) went through something similar when she was younger. Now, I’m scared because I’ve been hearing all these horror stories about how it can affect fertility, and I’m not even married yet. What if it’s a family thing and I end up facing the same problems? My mom says, ‘Don’t worry, it’ll be fine,’ but I can’t stop thinking about it. Should I see a gynecologist, or is there another kind of doctor I should be visiting? What tests should I do to get to the bottom of this before it gets worse? Honestly, I’m feeling overwhelmed and just want to know what’s going on before it’s too late.

Ans: Hello, noted your concerns
You are in late 20’s with irregular periods, acne, weight gain,
You are undergoing hormonal imbalance
We need to do certain blood test like
CBC, tsh prolactin fasting insulin level
Hba1c, testosterone level
DHEA, LH FSH ESTRADIOL LEVEL
Amd AMH level to check for fertility level
Usg pelvis to rule out
Pcos
The mainstay treatment. For pcos is lifestyle changes
1) Daily exercise, walks. Zumba, running
2) Good nutritious food with proteins, vitamins, minerals, low carbs and fats
3) good adequate sleep 7 to 8 hours
4) stress management: yoga meditation, breathing exercise
5) supplements to controls effects of pcos
6) low dose OC PILLS TO regularize the cycles

Sir, Which ULIP policy is best for me (Wealth creation+ Life Coverage). My current age is 30.

Ans: Hello;

My suggestion would be to opt for an adequate term life insurance and invest through mutual funds and NPS for other goals.

But if you are keen about ULIP only then you may select the insurer/plan of your choice or as advised by your insurance advisor.

However in the Ulip plan have 80% allocation to pure equity funds and balance 20% to debt funds to beginwith and tweak it over time as you grow older(nearing policy maturity date; ~ 30 years later) so by the time the policy is about to mature your equity allocation should be 40% or less.

Happy Investing;
