Hi Experts! I am 36 years old, married 1 year ago. I have Rs.223000 invested in Mutual Fund. Per Month 10k in Parag Parikh Flexi Cap Fund, Rs.1250 in DSP ELSS Tax Saver Fund Direct Growth, Rs.1000 in Kotak ELSS Tax Saver Fund Direct Growth, PGIM India Tax Saver Fund Direct Growth, Rs.2000 in Nippon India Small Cap Fund Direct Growth, Rs.2000 in Quant Multi Asset Fund Direct Growth and Rs.2000 in ICICI Prudential BHARAT 22 FDF Direct Growth. Apart from this I pay Rs.10k/month in PPF and 1.5 lac/year in SBI Life Insurance. Please let me know if this is a good portfolio or should I modify anything in this. What kind of Future return I will be expecting here with this portfolio.
Ans: Congratulations on your recent marriage and your proactive approach towards financial planning. It's evident that you're committed to securing your financial future.

Your investment portfolio reflects a diversified approach, which is a positive sign. Diversification helps spread risk and can enhance long-term returns. Let's delve into your portfolio to assess its effectiveness and potential for future returns.

Investing in Parag Parikh Flexi Cap Fund offers exposure to a diversified portfolio across various sectors and market capitalizations. This fund's flexible investment strategy allows it to capitalize on emerging opportunities, potentially leading to attractive returns over time.

ELSS Tax Saver Funds like DSP and Kotak offer tax benefits under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act while providing exposure to equities. These funds have a lock-in period of three years, aligning with your long-term investment horizon.

Nippon India Small Cap Fund and Quant Multi Asset Fund offer exposure to smaller companies and multiple asset classes, respectively. Small-cap funds have the potential for higher growth but come with increased volatility. Ensure they align with your risk tolerance.

ICICI Prudential BHARAT 22 FDF provides exposure to a diversified basket of public sector enterprises and select private sector companies. This fund can add stability to your portfolio while offering growth potential.

Your investments in PPF and SBI Life Insurance contribute to your overall financial security and tax planning. PPF offers stable returns with tax benefits, while life insurance provides protection for your family's future financial needs.

Considering your age and investment horizon, this portfolio has the potential to generate attractive returns over the long term. However, periodically review and rebalance your portfolio to ensure alignment with your financial goals and risk tolerance.

For a more comprehensive analysis and personalized advice, consider consulting a Certified Financial Planner who can tailor recommendations to your specific needs and objectives.

Can you please suggest on capital gains as per Indian taxation laws arising in the below two queries : 1) property purchased with joint ownership, me and my wife’s name in 2015 at a cost of 64,80,000, housing improvements done for the cost of 1000000 and brokerages of 200000 paid and sold the same property at 10000000 in Dec 2023? 2) 87% of the proceeds got from the deal i.e 8700000, have been reinvested to pay 25% amount in purchasing another joint ownership property in Dec 2023, 3) I have invested in another under construction property in Nov 2023 by taking housing loan, which is on me and my wife’s name worth 1.4 cr, here the primary applicant is me only while wife is just made a Co applicant in the builder buyer agreement and also on the housing loan . So what are the LTCG tax liabilities arising from the above 3 scenarios for FY 2023-2024 and FY 2024-2025. I intend to sale off the property acquired in (2) by Dec 2024 and use that proceeds to close the housing loan for the property acquired in (3), will this sale of property be inviting any tax liabilities if the complete proceeds received from the sale of the property in (2) would be utilised to close the housing loan taken in Nov 2023 for the property in (3) ? Since in FY 23-24, I would be claiming the LTCG from the sale proceeds of 1) invested in the purchase of property in 2), and I intend to sale off this property in Dec 2024, will the LTCG claim be forfeited on the property sale in (1), should I hold this property at least for further 1 year so that sale of this property in 2) will not invite STCG?
Ans: (A). Let's first talk about F/Y 2023-24 :
You jointly sold a Property during the year for Rs.76.80 lakhs (64.80+10.00+2.00), & sold the same for Rs.100.00 lakhs.
You have jointly also purchased Property No.3 (I suppose it is Residential only), for Rs.140.00 lakhs.
You should avail exemption u/s-54 & file your ITR accordingly. Please disclose all details about sale & purchase in your ITR.
02. Now coming to the F/Y 2024-25 :
You intend to Sell Property No.2, which was acquired in 2023-24. Any Gain on Sale of it would be Short Term capital Gains & taxed accordingly.
Alternatively, you may hold this sale of property no.2 (for 2 years from its purchase) & avoid STCG
You are free to utilize the sale proceeds in a way you like, including paying off your housing Loan.
Please note to avail exemption u/s 54 only from investment in property no.3 & not 2.
Most welcome for any further clarifications. Thanks.
