Ans: Hello Sedrick and thanks for writing to me.

Nippon India Nifty Next 50 Junior Bees are index tracking ETF's and will give returns closely linked to the performance of the Nifty Next 50 Index and you can consider continuing your investment in them.

If you share details like your risk appetite and goals, I may recommend another scheme instead.

Ans: I recommend continuing with the "Mirae Asset Emerging Bluechip Fund" & "Parag Parikh Flexicap Fund" as these funds have good track record of performance and has generated returns that are above the benchmark index over a long period of time.

However, I recommend you to discontinue your investments in the following funds:

1. Axis Long Term Equity Fund- This fund has shown inconsistency in returns over a period of time and shows inconsistency in returns and its performance in comparison to its peers.

2. Nippon India Pharma Fund and Tata Digital India Fund- These are sectoral funds, which means that they invest in companies belonging to a single sector, pharma and technology respectively. Sectoral funds are exposed to higher risk than diversified funds, as their performance depends on the performance of a single sector. Additionally, sectoral funds are unlikely to generate returns that are significantly higher than the benchmark index, as they are passively managed and track a sector index.
