ICICI balanced Advantage 2K HDFC Balanced Advantage 3K Tata Midcap and Largecap 3K Nippon India Small Cap 2K Motilal Midcap 2K ICICI Prudential Commodities 5K Quant Small Cap 5K Is it good funds for long terms ( Horizon of 8/10 years) ? I want to invest more 10K in SIP then which fund should I chose ? Thanks
Ans: Your choice of mutual funds for SIP investments reflects a diversified portfolio covering various market segments. Considering your long-term horizon of 8-10 years, these funds have the potential to deliver favorable returns.

However, it's essential to periodically review your portfolio's performance and ensure it aligns with your investment goals and risk tolerance. Additionally, consider factors like fund performance, fund manager track record, expense ratios, and market conditions when evaluating your investments.

For the additional 10K SIP investment, you may consider adding to existing funds or diversifying further based on your risk appetite and investment objectives. You might explore large-cap equity funds for stability and growth potential or thematic funds aligned with emerging trends if you're comfortable with higher risk.

Consulting a Certified Financial Planner can provide personalized recommendations tailored to your financial goals and help optimize your investment strategy for long-term wealth accumulation. They can also assist in monitoring your portfolio and making adjustments as needed to stay on track towards your objectives.

Sir. I am continuing my sip of 17000 in these mutual fund. 1.parag parikh flexicap dir- 3000 2.icici prudential technology-2000 3.Axis small cap dir-3000 4.Canara robeco small cap-2000 5. Quant small cap-3000 6. Nippon ind small cap-4000 Investment period - 15yr plus Age- 35. Please suggest me for the same.
Ans: Your portfolio has a mix of flexi-cap, sectoral, and small-cap funds, which is good for diversification. Considering your age and investment horizon, here are a few suggestions:

Risk Assessment: Ensure you're comfortable with the risk level, especially with the small-cap funds, which can be volatile but offer high growth potential.

Goal Alignment: Make sure each fund aligns with a specific financial goal. For example, flexi-cap for long-term wealth creation, technology fund for growth in the tech sector, and small-cap funds for higher growth potential but with higher risk.

Portfolio Balance: It might be beneficial to review your portfolio's asset allocation periodically. Ensure you're not too heavily skewed towards one asset class, which can expose you to unnecessary risks.

Performance Review: Regularly monitor the performance of your funds. If a fund consistently underperforms its benchmark or peers, consider replacing it with a better-performing alternative.

Emergency Fund: Before investing, ensure you have an emergency fund set aside to cover 3-6 months of living expenses.

Professional Advice: Consider consulting with a financial advisor for personalized advice tailored to your financial situation and goals.

Overall, your portfolio seems diversified and aligned with your long-term goals. Regular monitoring and adjustments will help you stay on track towards achieving your financial objectives.

I am 36 years old, earning around 1.6 lakhs per month, I have car loan for 7 years and paying 25000 per month, I bought a land property 3 years back and its current evaluation is 35 lakhs, I have a ulip plan of 2lakhs per years and the premium was for 7 years ( completed) and holding period is 3years, total fund accumulated is 22 lakhs. I have a liquid reserve of 20 lakhs. Can u tell me if I have to accumulate 8 crore at the age of 60 , what should I do?
Ans: Hi,

Lets look at your investments and see what you will be able to achieve at the age of 60.

ULIP - This is a insurance + investment product and as you have completed your premium term of 7 years you should be able to access this amount (now or 3 years later). It may seem to be a good product but I believe on both Insurance and Investments there are better products. First the insurance cover is not substantial and the charges are quite high. They will manage to invest the amount just like a Mutual fund. Its better to split insurance and investment. If you are looking at this amount like an investment, then the amount of 22 lakhs is available as a starting point, over the next 24 years if invested at 12% rate (typical returns in Mutual Funds), you will be able to accumulate 3.33 crores. You can buy a term life cover of a high value (much higher than the ULIP cover), for a very low premium and you should definitely get that and com out of the ULIP.

Savings of 20 lakhs - I suggest you keep about 10 lakhs aside in some FDs as your emergency fund - to be used only for any unexpected/emergency situation. This will grow to 40 lakhs at 6% over the next 24 years.
The remaining 10 lakhs should be invested in Mutual funds and at a 12% returns after 24 years this will accumulate into an amount of 1.51 crores.

Thus you can accumulate approx. 5.25 crores with these 2 amounts invested as above for the next 24 years.

To achieve 8 crores, you need to accumulate another 2.75 crores. If you invest 16500 monthly into similar investment (Mutual fund SIP) and assuming same return of 12%, you can accumulate this amount.

In this process we have not considered the land property you have, as its difficult to calculate its value without knowing its location and usage/type. So you can get some estimate for it in future then you can accordingly reduce the monthly SIP requirement.

Mutual Funds are a good investment option when you consider its long term benefits - as its managed by professionals. Its important to construct a good MF portfolio and with time of your side, you should be able to achieve your goal comfortably.

Consult a fee based Certified Financial Planner/Financial advisor who can help and guide you for this.

Thanks & Regards
