Ans: Your SIP investments are good. Keep investing

Ans: First, of all it is good to know that capital intensive goals like fixed assets and loans are completed. You have planned your finances well. My responses are below:
• The Funds listed by you have performed reasonably well
• Currently, most of your portfolio is Equity oriented and are high risk. This is ok, but it is good to have some money on debt options. This has not been provided by you, so cannot comment.
• An assumption of 12% annualized returns over a period of 14 Years looks a little overstretched if one considers having a good mix of Equity, Debt and Gold in the portfolio. Your current SIP’s fall a little short of achieving INR 7 crore over 14 Years with 12% annualized returns. You could increase this on a yearly basis as your income goes up and you should be fine. Over the years, you can also increase the mix of Debt and Gold.
• Another question one needs to ask is whether the Corpus of INR 7 crore is enough assuming that one is planning for retirement. Our retirement models show that this kind of Corpus might be sufficient to cover monthly expenses of approximately INR 1.5-1.6 lacs in today’s scenario. The standard of living varies from person to person, so you can assess based on these inputs.

Ans: Patil Sahab, Nippon innovation fund you need to keep for long term say 10yrs plus, as you are retired you should more invest in debt oriented schemes or balanced funds. Please add such funds in portfolio, for you capital preservation is more important.

Ans: if these investments grow by 12% average you will achieve your goal in 5yrs.

Ans: It's excellent that you're taking proactive steps towards securing your financial future at such a young age. By investing regularly in SIP, PPF, NPS, and PF, you're building a strong foundation for your retirement.

Regularly investing in SIPs allows you to benefit from the power of compounding over time, potentially leading to significant growth in your investments. PPF provides a secure and tax-efficient way to save, and NPS and PF contributions help you build a retirement corpus while also enjoying tax benefits.

However, the exact amount you'll receive at retirement depends on various factors like the rate of return on your investments, inflation, and any changes in government policies. It's essential to review your investment strategy regularly and make adjustments as needed to stay on track towards your retirement goals.

Consider consulting with a Certified Financial Planner (CFP) to develop a comprehensive retirement plan tailored to your needs and aspirations. A CFP can help you estimate your future retirement corpus based on your current investments and make recommendations to optimize your portfolio for long-term growth.

Remember, starting early and staying disciplined with your investments are key to achieving your retirement goals. Keep up the good work, and continue investing regularly to build a secure financial future for yourself.
