Ans: You have a mix of Large, Mid, Small and Flexicap funds which is good in itself to deliver good returns considering you have 15-20 Years’ time. HDFC Top 100 Fund and PGIM Midcap Fund, may be looked at for improvements based on your segment/AMC allocation. It is good to maintain 6-8 funds across categories.

Hi sir,Myself Sujit Singha- Private sector service holder & i am 41yrs my Financial goal plan is 45/50 Lcs in next 15 to 20yrs so following investment portfolio for last 5 yrs so far & kindly suggest if any switch or new investment in MF to be done/add.No-1) IDFC Emerging Business Fund-Regu-Growth=Rs.1000/- No-2) Axis Bluechip Fund Growth =Rs.3000/- No-3) Axis Small Cap Fund Reg (G) =Rs.2000/- No-4)DSP Mid Cap Duns Reg(G) = Rs.2000/- No-5)Axis Flexi cap Fund (G) =Rs.1500/- No-6) Kotak Emerging Equity (G) =Rs.2000/- Other than this if any shares can i Hold for long term plz advice
Ans: You have a total of Rs 11,500 of SIPs per month. You will easily reach your target of Rs 50 Lakhs even in 15 years with the portfolio you are following, even after not taking into account the amount you have accumulated in the past 5 years!
And magic will happen if you increase your SIP by 10% each year as your salary increases.

However, remember that your portfolio is very aggressive, 100% equity oriented and would need a review and if required, rebalancing once a year.

My recommendations on your funds:-

1. Axis Bluechip Fund – Large Cap – Continue
2. Axis Flexicap Fund – Flexi Cap – Poor performance. Switch to Parag Parikh Flexi Cap Fund
3. Kotak Emerging Equity Fund – Mid Cap - Continue
4. DSP Mid Cap Fund – Mid Cap – Poor performance. Switch to PGIM India Midcap Opp Fund
5. IDFC Emerging Business – Small Cap - A very new fund with hardly any track record. Switch instead to SBI Small Cap Fund
6. Axis Small Cap Fund – Small Cap – Continue

Dear Sir, My name is Shrikanth S Kumar. My age is 38 and wife's age is 34. My total annual CTC is 16,10,000. My monthly expenses is 40 k. I have 15 lakhs in savings account which I can invest for Long term. Please suggest New SIPS or current good sips and investment avenues to continue. Started investing in equity sips from 5 years. I have a target net worth to reach of 5CR in 5years. I have 13 lakhs MF portfolio, and my running MF sip are 35k in quant active, 30k in parag parikh flexi cap,6k in DSP Nifty 50 equal wieght Index fund and 5k in nippon small cap.
Ans: It's great to see your proactive approach towards long-term financial planning. Given your income, expenses, and existing investments, here are some suggestions to help you achieve your target net worth of 5 crores in 5 years:

Increase SIP Contributions: Consider increasing your SIP contributions to align with your ambitious goal. You may also explore the option of stepping up SIP amounts annually to accelerate wealth accumulation.
Diversification: While your current SIPs are well-diversified, you can further enhance diversification by adding funds from different categories such as large-cap, mid-cap, and multi-cap funds. This helps spread risk and capture opportunities across market segments.
Explore Tax-Saving Investments: Utilize tax-saving investment avenues such as Equity Linked Savings Schemes (ELSS) to optimize tax benefits while building wealth. ELSS funds offer the twin benefits of tax savings under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act and potential capital appreciation.
Regular Review and Rebalancing: Regularly review your investment portfolio to ensure it remains aligned with your financial goals and risk tolerance. Consider rebalancing your portfolio periodically to maintain the desired asset allocation mix.
Emergency Fund: Ensure you have an adequate emergency fund set aside in a liquid instrument like a savings account or liquid mutual fund to cover unforeseen expenses without disrupting your investment portfolio.
Seek Professional Advice: Given the ambitious nature of your financial goal, consider consulting with a certified financial planner who can provide personalized advice tailored to your specific circumstances and objectives.
Remember, achieving a significant target like 5 crores in 5 years requires disciplined savings, strategic investing, and periodic reassessment of your financial plan. Stay focused on your long-term objectives and remain patient during market fluctuations.

Dear Sir, My name is Shrikanth S Kumar. My age is 38 and wife's age is 34. My total annual CTC is 16,10,000. My monthly expenses is 40 k. I have 15 lakhs in savings account which I can invest for Long term. Please suggest New SIPS or current good sips and investment avenues to continue. Started investing in equity sips from 5 years. I have a target net worth to reach of 5CR in 5years. I have 16 lakhs MF portfolio, and my running MF sip are 35k in quant active, 30k in parag parikh flexi cap,6k in DSP Nifty 50 equal wieght Index fund and 5k in nippon small cap.
Ans: It is good that you are investing a good amount per month with a saving/investment ratio of 50%. To reach your goal with current accumulated portfolio, available investment surplus (Rs 15 Lakh) and current SIPs, you need to make additional SIPs of 4.71 Lakh per month, (assuming 12% annualised return). Obviously, this is not possible given current income and cash flows. Going with the current status of investment, you will be able to accumulate 1.18 Cr by the end of 5th Year.

Your stated scenario of accumulating Rs 5 Cr is definitely very difficult to achieve, but here we will suggest a practical and logical approach toward investment. Do the step up SIPs, which means you should increase the investible surplus (SIPs) every year as your income grows say 10%. With this, you should be able to accumulate approx Rs 1.29 Cr (Assuming 12% ROI). This will reduce the deficit required. Apart from this any windfall amounts received at any time should be invested towards facilitating the goal.

Currently, your SIPs are concentrated in 2 funds which is not good. You should work on diversifying the monthly investment wisely among different categories and sectors, based on your goal requirements.

Hi My daughter get 72 percentile in jee mains 1 i dont know what happened to her otherwise she is a good student scored 94% in her 10th boards ..if i will look for some private engineering college in india pls suggest i will go with pune or will look for management quota seat for csc from banglore. Pls suggest preference order of btech college in banglore
Ans: Hello Vandana.
Requesting you not to panic at this early stage. Let her appear for JEE session 2 and the state-level engineering entrance test. Let all the results out. You have ample time to think about the available options for engineering admission. At this stage, no need to think about management quota unless and until you want a particular branch in a particular college. Depending on her score in upcoming exams, she may get admission to reputed engineering either in Pune or Bengaluru
Here are some colleges in Bengaluru: (1) R.V. College of Engineering (RVCE) (2) B.M.S. College of Engineering (BMSCE) (3) M.S. Ramaiah Institute of Technology (MSRIT) (4) PES University (5) Bangalore Institute of Technology (BIT) (6) Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering (DSCE) (7) Sir M. Visvesvaraya Institute of Technology (SMVIT) (8) BMS Institute of Technology and Management (BMSIT&M) (9) Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology (NMIT) (10) RNS Institute of Technology (RNSIT)
Suggestion - Don't panic. Keep cool yourself. Ask your daughter to focus more on JEE 2nd attempt and state-level engineering entrance test.

If you are satisfied with the reply, pl follow me or else ask again without hesitation.
Thanks
Radheshyam
