Ans: Please allow 5-7 years for a fund to show performance. In the last 2 years, the market is range-bound. So expecting above-average returns in this period is not correct.

Also avoid, investing in thematic funds as they have a concentrated portfolio of 1 or 2 sectors.

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 SIP allocation has a significant tilt towards small and flexi-cap funds, which can be volatile but offer growth potential. Given your age and investment horizon:

Consider diversifying by adding a large-cap or multi-cap fund to balance the portfolio.
Revisit the technology fund's exposure; while it can offer high growth, it can also be volatile.
Ensure your portfolio aligns with your risk tolerance and long-term goals.
Regular reviews with a financial advisor can help adjust your strategy as needed and ensure your portfolio remains well-balanced.

I have 222xx rank in JEE mains (98.5%ile, Gen Male), and I want to pursue any branch that focuses on mathematics and electronics, for example MnC, EE, ECE, EIE, etc. and I wanted to know more branches that are mathematics heavy. For example, I've heard from my seniors that Engineering Physics has a lot of advanced maths, which is not obvious to us students who have just passed class 12. Another thing I've heard, MnC syllabus varies drastically among colleges and colleges offer both BSc and BTech. These small things would matter a lot in the future. My questions: 1. What other branches focus on math mainly? 2. I can apply for BTech in Computational Mathematics and BSc in Mathematics and Computing in NIT Agartala. What's the difference? 3. I have a chance of getting Integrated MSc in Mathematics at NIT Warangal. How viable is that option?

Ans: For a balanced mix of engineering, electronics, and math, ECE, EE, MnC, or Computational Mathematics BTech are great options.

If you want deep math theory and research, go for Integrated MSc or BSc in Math & Computing.

Check detailed syllabi of each program, as curricula and career prospects differ across colleges.

Your rank gives you a good chance for some newer NITs and IIITs offering specialized courses — explore their seat matrices.

With 81,146 rank in vit .. which branchhes an I get in vit vellore ..is it worth it?

Ans: With 81,146 rank in VIT, getting a top branch like CSE or ECE at VIT Vellore is unlikely. You may get branches like Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, or other core engineering branches depending on seat availability.

Is it worth it? VIT is a good private university with decent placements, especially in top branches. But with this rank, you might get less preferred branches where placements and packages could be average.

If you want strong placements and core CSE/ECE, you might want to explore other options or try state quota/private universities closer to your home with better chances.

Ans: If your son is interested in a mix of electrical and computer science, with a growing field like AI/ML, VIT Chennai is a strong choice.

If he prefers pure Computer Science with a more software/programming focus, KIIT CSE is very good.

Also, consider the COMEDK result before finalizing — sometimes good options open up there.
