Hello sir, My age is fiifty and jave invested a capital of 39 lacs in mutual funds , 28 lacs in post office instruments. will be retiring at an age of 55 to 58. years. Can you suggest me the approximate capital value that i amy accumulate thro ugh my invested amount after 10 years to ahve an monthly income of 1 lacs or so. Invested amount: SBI Blue chip SBI Equity and Hybrid fund SBI Flexi cap fund SBI Contra fund Kotak emerging equity fund HDFC Fexicap fund HDFC MID Cap opportunities fund ICICI Banking and financial services fund HSBC infra structure DSP Mutual fund

Ans: As per your query, you require Rs 1 lakh per month (today’s cost) after retirement. Considering inflation to maintain same purchasing power you would be requiring around Rs 1.58 lakh per month approximately. Thus assuming you will be retiring at 58 and life expectancy till age 75, you require bulk investment of 1.38cr as on date assuming inflation 6% and expected return of 10%.

The amount invested as on date for MF and Post office scheme is around 67 lakhs approx., if the same grows at an average of 8% it will be 1.24Cr (but same can vary based on nature of investment in post office scheme) thus you are deficit in current time for the aforesaid goal, same can be fulfilled by SIP of Rs 90 K for next 8 years, otherwise you will fall short of money for later years of monthly income required.

The suggestion on investment avenues and choice of product also depends on further aspects such as risk appetite, asset allocation and cashflows etc. Prima facie your portfolio seems concentrated in similar fund houses that further not suitable for maintaining well diversification reducing overall risk.

Ans: To estimate your approximate corpus after 10 years, we need to consider several factors such as the expected rate of return, the frequency of investment, and the compounding effect. Since you have provided your monthly investments, we can use these to calculate the future value of your investments.

Given the variety of funds in your portfolio and the potential for different rates of return, let's assume an average annual return rate of 10% for the purpose of estimation.

Using this assumed rate of return, the monthly investment amounts, and a time period of 10 years, we can calculate the future value of your investments using a compound interest formula.

However, I would recommend using an SIP calculator available online to get a more accurate estimate based on your specific investments and expected rates of return. These calculators consider factors such as NAV fluctuations and can provide a more tailored projection.

Remember that this is just an estimate, and actual returns may vary based on market performance and other factors. Regularly reviewing and adjusting your investment strategy is crucial to stay on track towards your financial goals.

Sir, Myself Rajesh, salaried person, 37 years old. having MF SIP Rs. 36500 per month, current invested amount is about Rs. 14,00,000/- + in Equity stocks- Rs.3,00,000/- have about Rs. 5,00,000/- in hand to invest either in stocks or MF . Have family of 3 people and Monthly expenses are around Rs.25k. Planning to take retirement in another 10 years, looking at the current investment can you help me identify approx. corpus required to invest and take retirement. Thank you.
Ans: Hello Rajesh! It's great to see your commitment to investing for your future, especially with retirement on the horizon. Let's dive into planning for your retirement corpus.

Given your current investments in MF SIPs and equity stocks, you're already on a solid path. However, to estimate the corpus needed for retirement, we need to consider factors such as your desired post-retirement lifestyle, inflation, and expected expenses.

With your monthly expenses at Rs. 25,000 and a family of three, projecting your future expenses accounting for inflation is essential. Additionally, factoring in potential healthcare costs and other unforeseen expenses is prudent.

As a Certified Financial Planner, I recommend conducting a comprehensive financial review to determine your retirement goals and risk tolerance. This will help in estimating the corpus required to sustain your lifestyle post-retirement comfortably.

With your additional Rs. 5,00,000 in hand, you have an opportunity to further diversify your investments. Whether you choose to invest in stocks or MFs, consider your risk appetite and the need for diversification to mitigate risks.

I suggest consulting with a financial advisor who can create a personalized retirement plan tailored to your specific circumstances and goals. By taking proactive steps now, you're setting yourself up for a financially secure retirement in 10 years. Keep up the good work, and remember, investing is a journey, so stay focused on your long-term objectives.

Ans: Hello,
first of all, you need to calm down & settle down your negative thought process. At least you are clear & honest enough to admit your mistakes. That's the first step towards success.

Decide your goal & make a road map to achieve it. Follow it diligently & avoid distractions that come along the journey. If you are unable to control your negative thoughts seek professional counseling. All the best.
