Ans: It's great that you're investing systematically through SIPs to achieve your financial goals. However, it's essential to review your investment strategy periodically to ensure it aligns with your objectives and risk tolerance.

Considering your aim to accumulate 50 lakhs in 5 years and your willingness to take high risk, here are some considerations:

One-time SIPs: Investing in small-cap and multi-cap funds can potentially offer higher returns but also comes with higher volatility. Given your relatively short investment horizon of 5 years, ensure you're comfortable with the risk associated with these funds.
Monthly SIPs: Continuing SIPs in small-cap and PSU funds aligns with your risk appetite. However, it's crucial to monitor the performance of these funds regularly and be prepared for market fluctuations.
Review and Adjust: Periodically review the performance of your funds and assess if they're on track to meet your goal of accumulating 50 lakhs in 5 years. If necessary, consider rebalancing your portfolio or switching to funds with better growth potential and risk-adjusted returns.
Diversification: While high-risk investments have the potential for higher returns, it's essential to diversify your portfolio to mitigate risk. Consider adding funds from different categories such as large-cap or balanced funds to achieve diversification.
Consult a Financial Advisor: Given the complexity of investing and your specific financial goals, consider consulting with a financial advisor who can provide personalized advice tailored to your needs and objectives. They can help you evaluate your investment strategy, identify any gaps or areas for improvement, and make informed decisions to maximize your returns while managing risk.
By staying informed, regularly reviewing your portfolio, and seeking professional guidance when needed, you can increase the likelihood of achieving your financial goals effectively.

How should I decide which IT course to take at the age of 39 with a B.Com degree? I am confused between Full Stack Development (Should I first take a front-end development course and then move to back-end development, or should I directly pursue a full-stack course and expect to get a job?) or Cloud Computing. Also, could you suggest which institute is best in Pune? Finally, is it better to learn and complete the course offline or online, considering the employer's preference i.e., do employers give more preference to candidates who studied through regular offline classes or those who studied online?
Ans: Always an employee will prefer a candidate who did off line course than online course. Secondly do yopu have a back ground of Science in 12th Standard. If not then you need to know Mathematics of 12th Standard ( at least a part of it) thoroughly. Secondly I would advice you to go for online certification course in Data Science, Cloud Computing, AI and Machine Learning. But before going for these certification courses you must see the syllabus and practice the basic requirements by viewing the YOU TUBE videos of the topics and there are ample study materials available in net. But without practising the basic never start the courses, you will then end in misery. So learn the basic and then start. Off line course is not recommended at this age. No need to go for a degree course. It will be of no use at this age. Go for good certification courses offered by good organizations which are having collaboration with reputed IITs like Bombay/Madras/Roorkee. Best of luck. Just follow me. MAY GOD BLESS YOU.

MF, PF Expert - Answered on Dec 04, 2024

Hi, i am 52years old, wanted to retire early, following are my investments, MF - INR 65L, Equity - INR 22L, 3 houses, one is self-occupied, other 2 houses valued at INR 90 L and INR 32L respectively, i have home loan outstanding of INR 12L, FD of INR 36L , PF INR 32L, monthly expenses requirement is INR 1 L, kindly help me to plan my early retirement. Thank you in advance for your reply on my question.
Ans: Hi,

As there are many things to consider for an early retirement, one of the first is to start thinking about it in a more realistic manner. An early retirement is not necessarily stop working life, but think of it as a more comfortable schedule that provides you opportunities to relax and pursue your passion and interests and live life on your own terms. You may or may not undertake an activity which can be monetized, meaning which provides you some sort of income - not necessarily to cover your living expenses in whole/part. So do give it some thought of how you intend to keep yourself occupied once you retire from your "current schedule". Will you generate any source of income or will you incur/require more expense.

At current age of 52, an early retirement even if we consider at 55 years of age, it a still a long life ahead. I will make a lot of assumptions in my response as these are not known from your query - such as life expectancy of another 30 years, average return of 8% on all investments for future etc. Are the 2 real estate properties earning any kind of rent that can be considered as income.
There are too many variables that go into the calculations for retirement which are specific to each individual and their circle of life.

Generic solution - You have a currently accumulated investments valued at INR 2.65 Cr (all investments less loan).

Current monthly expenses is INR 1 Lac, over which inflation needs to be applied each year (depends on lifestyle and composition of items of expenses).

So if your cumulative investments appreciate at average 8% annually, and your monthly expense increases at 6% annual inflation, your current accumulated investments are just about enough to manage expenses for next 30yrs (excluding tax implications - refer below).

Points to consider -
1. Inflation in real world is more than 6% (depends on the individual)
2. Liquidation of investments e.g. Real estate attract expenses/fees and tax on capital gains as it will be lumpsum
3. PF post retirement will earn interest only for 3 years, so you need to plan to re-invest the amount
4. Interest income on FD attracts tax at slab rate
5. Withdrawal of amount for monthly expense from your investments will attract tax on capital gains (MF and Equity)

I strongly recommend you connect with a Certified Financial Planner for personalized guidance and prepare a plan that will take into consideration your risk profile and overall investment management towards the retirement. Benefits will include a more tax efficient plan which will consider your requirements and ensure retirement goals are achieved and if there is a shortfall - what alternatives you need to consider.

Hope this is helpful and all the best for the future.

Regards
Janak Patel

Sir I am preparing for mbbs, but I'm not able to crack that. I'm a middle class student. Can I pursue mbbs in abroad under 8 lakhs in a best college for mbbs?After that can I able to be a doctor in India?
Ans: Hi Lagna,

It seems you haven’t provided the details clearly on this platform. If you could share more information, I’m sure you will receive helpful input.

Based on your message, I understand that you are considering pursuing a career in medicine. If you intend to enroll in a medical program either in India or abroad and plan to practice in India after completion, here are some important guidelines according to the National Medical Commission (NMC):

You must appear for the NEET exam, as it is a mandatory requirement for anyone wishing to pursue graduate medical education in India or elsewhere while intending to return and practice in India. According to the NMC eligibility criteria: “No student shall be eligible to pursue graduate medical education either in India or elsewhere (if they want to return and practice in India), except by scoring the minimum eligible score at the NEET UG exam. The UGMEB will announce the list of eligible students periodically.”

Therefore, I recommend preparing for the NEET exam and trying to secure admission in India itself. If you choose to pursue medical education abroad, you can still practice in India, but you will need to pass exit exams as well.

Regarding your question about pursuing MBBS abroad for under 8 lakhs, are you asking if this is per year or for the entire course? Studying abroad at that cost per year is possible. However, when you take into account the total expenses, which include course fees, accommodation, food, travel, visa, and other costs, it might be more feasible to complete your MBBS in India.

I hope this clarifies your queries!
