A have hold 1600 shares of ioc @80 per share.what is the future in next 6 months?

Ans: Hello;

Belated birthday wishes!

You may do a monthly sip of 1.5 L into combination of pure equity mutual funds.(PPFAS flexicap fund: 50 K, Kotak Emerging Opportunities Fund: 50 K, Nippon India Growth fund: 20 K, SBI small cap fund: 15 K, Tata Digital fund: 15 K)

After 5 years you may expect receive a corpus of 1.27 Cr.(13% return considered)

You may invest it lumpsum in a equity savings type fund for eg ICICI Pru equity savings fund (low to moderate risk) for 2 years and let the corpus grow to 1.51 Cr. (9% reture assumed). Here you may do 3% SWP to earn a monthly income of 37.75 K which you may hike every year to keep in line with inflation.

Do not increase SWP rate beyond 3% because if you do so then during market drawdowns you may eat into your corpus significantly.

Happy Investing!!

Ans: What is your targeted fund corpus and the time horizon available to achieve the same?

Kindly clarify so as to answer suitably.

Ans: Hello;

You may invest in NPS upto the age of 70.

However even auto choice would also only allow 60-50% equity allocation at this age.

If this is okay with then please go ahead.

Else you may also think about investing in ICICI Pru Retirement Fund (G) -Hybrid Aggressive plan which is a type of solution oriented mutual fund for retirement planning.

It comes with a mandatory 5 year lock-in.

Equity allocation maybe between 65-80% and debt allocation maybe 35-20%.

Select whatever suits your risk tolerance.

Happy Investing!!

Ans: Its fine if CGPA in one of the semesters is low as long as he has a good overall cgpa. Admission to IVY league colleges focusses on a lot more aspects apart from Academics. Try to build a good profile and a good story on why you want to do the course with relevant information to back it up.

Ans: Sunil Sir, your son should look into engineering colleges that offer computer science courses with an emphasis on artificial intelligence. He must take entrance exams such as JEE, BITSAT, SITEEE, COMEDK, or the State Engineering Entrance Exam etc. for which he is eligible. It is recommended that he consult with a professional/approved foreign education expert about his undergraduate studies abroad. However, you should conduct a basic study on abroad education, such as preferred countries/courses, selection processes, admission criteria, visa processes, scholarships, work permits, and so on. All the BEST for Your Son's Prosperous Future.

Ans: Hello.
There are a lot of options available after 12th commerce without mathematics. But it is highly recommended that, at least from a passing point of view, one should learn mathematics for more options. The entire mathematics is not needed for many courses but the applications of mathematics help to excel in some subjects.
Here are some options for you: (1) Law (2) Management (3) Finance (4) Hospitality (5) BBA (6) Hotel Management (7) CS (8) CA and many more. Explore your potential and interest in the relative field and choose the path.
