My SIP is as mentioned below Motilal elss Direct - 1500 Mirae asset ELSS -2500 Mirae asset Large and Mid Direct -2000 Parag Parekh Flexi Cap Direct -2000 DSP ELSS -1000 SBI Small Cap 1000 Quant ELSS 1000 Motilal Large and Midcap 1500 Quant small Cap 1000 Mirae asset Multicap 2000 Motilal small cap 1000 ICICI prudential Bharat 22 FOF 1000 Aditya Birla PSU 2000
Ans: Assessing Your Current SIP Portfolio
Your SIP portfolio is well-diversified across various mutual fund categories. Investing in multiple funds helps reduce risk and enhances potential returns. However, it's important to review and make necessary adjustments for optimal growth.

Diversification Analysis
Diversification Across Categories

Your portfolio includes large-cap, mid-cap, small-cap, flexi-cap, and ELSS funds. This diversification is commendable. It allows you to tap into different segments of the market.

You have significant exposure to ELSS funds. While these offer tax benefits, ensure they align with your long-term goals. Too many funds in a single category might not add value.

The inclusion of flexi-cap funds like Parag Parikh Flexi Cap is wise. These funds provide flexibility by investing across market capitalizations.

Risk Management

Small-cap funds are part of your portfolio, which is good for long-term growth. However, they are more volatile. Keep a close watch and limit exposure to manage risk effectively.

The presence of large and mid-cap funds ensures stability. These funds are less volatile and can provide steady returns over time.

Direct Plans: A Closer Look
Disadvantages of Direct Plans

While direct plans offer lower expense ratios, they require active monitoring. Without expert advice, it can be challenging to make informed decisions.

Regular plans, through a Certified Financial Planner, offer guidance and regular portfolio reviews. This ensures your investments remain aligned with your financial goals.

Regular Plans Through MFD with CFP Credential

Investing through a CFP allows for ongoing professional support. A CFP can provide insights and adjustments based on market conditions and personal financial changes.

Regular plans might have higher expense ratios but offer value in terms of expert advice and management.

Suggested Adjustments
Streamlining Your ELSS Investments

You have multiple ELSS funds, which might lead to overlapping holdings. Consider consolidating to one or two well-performing ELSS funds to simplify your portfolio.

Focus on ELSS funds with a strong track record of performance and consistency.

Review Small-Cap Allocation

Small-cap funds are a high-risk, high-reward option. Ensure that your allocation does not exceed 20-25% of your total investment.

You might want to reduce the number of small-cap funds and reallocate to more stable options like large-cap or hybrid funds.

Consider Hybrid Funds

Hybrid funds, which invest in both equity and debt, can provide a balance between risk and return. They are less volatile and offer a buffer during market downturns.

Allocating a portion of your portfolio to hybrid funds can enhance stability and reduce overall risk.

Tax Efficiency and Goal Alignment
Maximizing Tax Benefits

ELSS funds offer tax deductions under Section 80C. However, ensure that your investment in ELSS is aligned with your overall tax-saving strategy.

Don't over-invest in ELSS just for tax benefits. Focus on funds that also meet your long-term financial goals.

Aligning with Financial Goals

Review your portfolio to ensure it aligns with your financial goals. Whether it's long-term wealth creation or tax savings, your investments should support your objectives.

If your goal is wealth creation, prioritize funds with strong growth potential and a proven track record.

Final Insights
Your SIP portfolio is diversified and shows a clear understanding of different market segments. However, consider streamlining your ELSS and small-cap funds to avoid redundancy. Regular plans, through a Certified Financial Planner, offer valuable guidance and management. Reassess your portfolio to ensure it aligns with your long-term goals and risk tolerance.

Hello i am almost 30 now I have invested around 40 lakhs in Market (mutual funds plus equity) 6 lakhs ppf maybe 2 lakhs pf I have parental property of combining around 2.5cr I have my parents helath insurance from a private insurance company, also covered by cghs health scheme,so no major worries about health expenses, for me i have 10lakhs health insurance Apart from this we have family pension also. As of now overall i have a monthly income of around 2-2.25 lakhs. I have a car a bike a scooty all valid for next 8-10 years What should be my goal amount for the retirement, i want it as early as possible As per the current scenario i am assuming i will live max till 75 years age. As of now i can invest 80-90k per month Yet to be married i assume i need atleast Lakhs per month as of now What should be the ideal amount with which i can retire
Ans: Hello;

Hope you have adequate term life insurance for yourself.

You may start a monthly sip of 90 K in a combination of pure equity mutual funds.

After 10 years your sip and lumpsum investment will grow into sums of 2.09 and 1.24 Cr respectively.

This adds upto 3.33 Cr. If you add your ppf and EPF corpus then this should add upto a sum of around 4 Cr.

If you invest this corpus in a conservative hybrid debt fund and do a SWP at the rate of 3.5%, you may expect a post tax monthly income of
1 L+.

As you get married your expenses will rise as also the need to plan for various other goals.

Therefore the decision to retire from regular 9-6 job should be backed up with alternate business plan or such other plan to monetize your hobbies that may yield income over atleast next 10-15 years.

Best wishes;

Career
Hello! Read your article of studying MBBS abroad. One question - after completing MBBS abroad, how can a student enter the Indian Market to do practising, is there any exam to appear, if so, the passing marks and in which hospitals the student can practice (Government or Private). Second Question: For studying Post - Graduation, will the abroad degree of MBBS will work for the entrance test for PG or any other option to take admission for PG? Thanking you Regards, Madhuri Shinde
Ans: Hello Madhuri.
First of all, thank you for reading the article so quickly and showing your faith in rediffGuru.
Here is the point-wise reply to your queries:
(1) To practice in India, the candidate has to appear for the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) conducted by the National Medical Commission (NMC) or National Board of Examinations (NBE)
(2) Passing Marks: A minimum of 50%
(3) The candidate can practice either in Govt or Private hospital
(4) One has to decide from which country he wants to do PG. As far as India is concerned, the candidate has to appear for the NEET PG entrance test. There are no direct PG admissions in India without NEET-PG if the candidate seeks an NMC-recognized PG qualification.
Finally, If you plan to pursue a PG degree abroad, ensure that the institution and course are recognized by the NMC to practice in India upon your return.

If satisfied, please like and follow me.
If dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.
Thanks.

Radheshyam
