Dear K. Ramalingam, Thanks a lot for your valuable inputs, really appreciate your gesture. with Regards, Ajay Bhat

Ans: It's great that your son is interested in pursuing a career in physics research and academics! He can do
B.Sc. in Physics, Integrated M.Sc. in Physics, Dual Degree Programs, B.Tech. in Engineering Physics or Applied Physics.
Top Institutes for Physics in India:

Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISERs)
Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore
IITs (particularly IIT Kanpur, IIT Bombay, and IIT Madras offer strong physics programs)
University of Delhi
St. Stephen's College, Delhi
Banaras Hindu University (BHU)
Presidency University, Kolkata
These universities/institutions took admission through different exams. Your son should prepare for those exams

Ans: Hello;

You may allocate your monthly sip
(1 L) in the following manner:

Flexicap type mutual fund: 30%
PPFAS flexicap
Large cap mutual fund: 20%
Canara Robeco Bluechip
Midcap mutual fund: 20%
Nippon India Growth
Small cap fund: 10%
SBI small cap
Multi asset allocation fund: 20%
ICICI Pru MAF

For retirement purpose corpus should never be in pure equity fund.

You may utilise hybrid funds such as equity savings type mutual fund or conservative hybrid debt type mutual fund for SWP.

Also do not let the SWP rate above 3% as this serves as safety during market drawdowns as to not eat into your corpus and deplete it significantly.

Land and RSUs may be your booster to fight inflation in retirement.

Stay sufficiently insured for life and health.

Happy Investing!!

Ans: Dear Ruta,
You want to get into a relationship with a married man? Will that not complicate your already complicated life?
You certainly deserve to be loved and taken care of BUT do not jump towards a married man...you do understand that his priorities will lie with his first family and this will hurt you again and you will feel neglected AGAIN...

What is he planning with his marriage? Does his wife know about your relationship? Is he going to end his marriage and then marry you? These questions need answers and then you can decide for yourself keeping in mind that you need to take of yourself emotionally in this second association.

All the best!

Ans: Request you to kindly rephrase your query.

Ans: Hello;

You may approach the HR department of your previous employer and discuss possible way out of the situation.

Regret if your exit was abrupt and improper.

Their is no harm in apologising for any wrong action especially if it can help build bridges and resolve open issues amicably.

All the best;

Ans: Hello;

You may invest 50 L into an Arbitrage type mutual fund (low risk) earmarked for your son's higher education.

For 1 Cr you may buy an immediate annuity from a life insurance company. Considering annuity rate of 6% you may expect to receive monthly payout of around 50 K.

So your total monthly income will be 50 K from annuity + 30 K passive income= 80 K pm.

After accounting for your monthly expenses of 60 K you have a surplus of 20 K which you may use to initiate a monthly sip into a pure equity mutual fund.

After 10 years this sip may grow into a corpus of around 50 L to top-up your retirement corpus.

Happy Investing;

Ans: Dear Krishnasamy,
It's possible that certain medications might have been responsible for decrease in her sex drive which only a doctor can clarify OR she clearly has a decreased interest in sex in which case, do respect it, Sir. And there are other forms of intimacy and closeness to explore that can keep your connection alive...

All the best!

Ans: Yes if you follow all the rules for claiming the benefit

Ans: Hello;

You may invest 20 L in Arbitrage type of mutual fund(low risk) earmarked for marriage of your sons.

Also you may invest 3 Cr into equity savings type mutual fund (moderate risk).

After 3 years it may grow into a sum of 3.89 Cr considering modest return of 9%.

I suggest that you redeem this corpus by paying LTCG(~11 L) and buy an immediate annuity for balance corpus of 3.78 Cr from a life insurance company.

I am not recommending you to do an SWP because for your required monthly income SWP rate will have to be 4.5%+ annually and I ran this on an swp calculator which shows depleted corpus of less then 1 Cr after 30 years.

Considering annuity rate of 6% you may expect to receive monthly payment of 1.89 L(pre-tax).

Seek joint annuity for yourself and your spouse with return of purchase price to your nominees.

Some life insurers offer increasing annuity at fixed intervals to account for inflation.

Also if you shop around and negotiate you may get a better annuity rate.

Happy Investing!!
