Hello I am 35 years old and want to generate a corpus fund of 4~5 cr in 15 years. My current SIP is 30k a month in the following: KOTAK SMALL CAP FUND - GROWTH - 2500 QUANT FLEXI CAP FUND REGULAR PLAN - GROWTH- 2500 TATA LARGE AND MID CAP FUND REGULAR PLAN GROWTH - 2500 UTI MASTERSHARE UNIT SCHEME - GROWTH PLAN - 2500 ICICI PRUDENTIAL INNOVATION FUND REGULAR PLAN GROWTH - 10000 UTI NIFTY 50 EQUAL WEIGHT INDEX FUND - REGULAR PLAN - 5000 GROWTH BANDHAN EMERGING BUSINESSES FUND REGULAR PLAN-GROWTH -1250 ADITYA BIRLA SUN LIFE GENNEXT FUND-GROWTH - 1250 TATA SMALL CAP FUND REGULAR PLAN GROWTH - 1250 SBI SMALL CAP FUND REGULAR GROWTH - 1250

Ans: After reviewing your portfolio, we propose that you discontinue your SIPs in Thematic Funds. Thematic funds are highly risky in nature and it is difficult to predict which sector will perform when and where, and begin your SIPs with funds that have proven past records. We also recommend that you keep a mix of equity and hybrid funds in your portfolio to ensure stability and recommend investing in various categories of equities mutual funds, i.e Large Cap, Mid Cap, Small Cap, and Flexi Cap. Investment across category provide proper diversification.

As you will require around 4-5 Cr in 15 years, we recommend you to increase your SIPs on yearly basis and It is recommendable to increase your SIPs by 5-10% every year as income grows. You can also invest some amount in Bulk when it is available with you such as yearly bonus, monthly or quarterly incentives etc.

We suggest you to maintain the discipline with your investments.
As it is said, “Successful investing takes time, discipline and patience”.

Please advise ECE (from IIST trivandrum, or IIIT Bangalore or NIT Jamshedpur) Or Maths and Computing from DTU Delhi, or Mechanical from NIT Surathkhal or Warangal or Electrical from NIT Rourkela or Allahabad or Calicut...mainly placement perspective.
Ans: IIST Trivandrum (Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala) ECE yields 77% UG placement with a median ?11.04 LPA over 2021–23 via ISRO absorption (however, not guaranteed as ISRO's Recruitment policy changes every year and subject to other eligibility criteria too) and space-tech recruiters. IIIT Bangalore (Hosur Road, Bengaluru) ECE achieves nearly 100% on-campus placement, average ?37.95 LPA and peak ?89.12 LPA in 2025 through global tech firms. NIT Jamshedpur (Jamshedpur, Jharkhand) ECE placed 90.29% of its 2024 batch at ?15.65 LPA average, supported by 725 offers from 260 companies. DTU Delhi (Rohini, New Delhi) Maths & Computing records ~90% overall placement with average ?15.45 LPA and 70% branch rate for Mathematics & Computing at ?18 LPA average. NIT Surathkal (Surathkal, Karnataka) Mechanical shows 93% BTech placement in 2025, average ?12.57 LPA for Mechanical. NIT Warangal (Warangal, Telangana) Mechanical places 82.79% at median ?12 LPA in 2023–24. NIT Rourkela (Rourkela, Odisha) Electrical registers 100% EEE placement in 2024, average ?13.89 LPA and highest ?120 LPA.

Recommendation: Prioritize IIIT Bangalore ECE for its near-100% placement and ?37.95 LPA average packages; next choose NIT Jamshedpur ECE for its strong 90.29% placement momentum; opt for DTU Maths & Computing third for versatile analytics roles; consider IIST ECE for niche space-tech roles. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!
