Hi Mr. Ramalingam. I am a 22 year old girl working as a freelance consultant earning fixed of Rs. 60000 per month and fluctuating between 15000-20000 per month. I current have a equity portfolio of Rs.79000 and SIP of Rs.10000 every month into Nifty next 50 and Midcap and smallcap funds. I want to make Rs. 1 crore by age of 30. Kindly suggest how I can reach this goal

Ans: Achieving Rs. 1 crore in a short period of time is challenging, especially without taking high risks. There are no safe "get rich quick" schemes that can guarantee such returns in a short time frame. While your savings of Rs. 25 lakhs and monthly income of Rs. 80,000 provide a solid foundation, wealth creation requires time, patience, and disciplined investments.

You can aim for long-term growth through consistent investing in avenues like mutual funds, equity, and other reliable instruments. However, expecting to double or quadruple your money quickly would likely expose you to unnecessary risks. It's important to avoid falling for speculative schemes or high-risk ventures, as they often lead to losses.

A balanced approach with realistic expectations is the best way to secure your financial future.

Ans: Dear Rayulu,
To create ?1 crore in 10 years with your current mutual fund SIPs of ?40,000/month, you need a consistent 12% CAGR. At this rate, your corpus will grow to approximately ?92.7 lakhs. To bridge the gap, consider increasing your SIPs by ?2,000-?3,000/month or adding a 10% annual top-up.

Your portfolio is well-diversified but leans heavily on small-cap funds (Axis, Quant, Nippon). Balance it by adding large-cap or index funds like **UTI Nifty Index** or **Mirae Asset Large Cap** for stability. Monitor your portfolio annually and reallocate if funds underperform consistently for 2-3 years. Staying disciplined, increasing SIPs periodically, and maintaining a balanced portfolio will ensure you comfortably achieve your ?1 crore goal in 10 years.

Ans: Hello;

Your exposure to small cap funds is quite high.

You should have one flexicap fund and one aggressive hybrid (equity) fund for your sip of 20 K.

Your wife may have one flexicap fund and one Large & Midcap type fund for her sip of 20 K.

Further you may start one more monthly sip of 5 K in a multi asset allocation type fund.

This total monthly sip of 45 K may yield you desired sum of 1 Cr. in 10 years. (A modest return of 12% is considered)

You may select any fund from the top quartile in the respective category or consult an MFD for the same.

Happy Investing;
