I want to change my daughter DOB in sukanya samridhi yojna in post office. I have supporting documents like birth certificate and aadhaar updated. But post office employee told me that DOB dnt change in sunakya yojna. Please guide me what procedure I follow
Ans: I understand your concern about changing your daughter's DOB in the Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana account. While updating details is important, changing the DOB might be a complex process. Think of the DOB as the foundation of the account.

The post office employee might be right about not allowing direct DOB changes within the Sukanya Samriddhi scheme. However, there might be a way forward. Here's what you can explore:

Contact Higher Authorities: Reach out to the Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana program office or department head at your local post office. Explain your situation and inquire about the possibility of rectification if you have valid documents like the updated birth certificate and Aadhaar card.

Supporting Documents: The key is having strong documentation to prove the error. Ensure your updated birth certificate and Aadhaar card clearly reflect the correct DOB.

Patience is Key: These processes can take time, so be prepared to follow up and provide any additional information required.

If these initial steps don't yield a solution, consider consulting a Certified Financial Planner (CFP). They can help you navigate the process and explore alternative options if necessary. Remember, your daughter's education is an important goal, and there might be other financial planning strategies to ensure she has a bright future.

Hi, I am 56 with a take home salary of about 5L per month and expect to retire in 4 years. I have about 1.2 cr in PF+PPF and 4 properties worth 2.5Cr. Cash in hand 40L and equity worth 25L. From Jan24, investing about 2L per month in MF + Shares + others and wish to continue to next 4 years. Daughter is working and likely to get married in next 2 years (anticipate a spend of 35L). Son will join MBBS in 2 years with expected fee of 30L per year. Have no loans and well covered for mediclaim and term insurance. Am i covered for the expenses? Please suggest ...
Ans: Hello;

Your PF+PPF balance you can keep untouched so it may grow into a corpus of 1.6 Cr(7.5% growth rate assumed) + regular contributions over 4 years, at the end of your work life.

At your age I recommend you to resist temptation of dealing in direct stocks or even pure equity mutual funds due to the very high risk of volatility.

I propose you to put 30 L(6 month pay coverage) as emergency fund in ICICI Pru Liquid fund(Best returns on 6M criteria)+ facility of instant redemption upto 50K & balance T+1 working day.

10 L balance from cash in hand + 25 L of stock holdings could be invested in Tata money market debt fund(best returns on 1 year criteria). Both these funds have moderate & low to moderate risk profile respectively. This will serve as your corpus for daughter's marriage and grow for 2 years in the meanwhile.

The 2L investment per month which you have began from Jan-24 is expected to go into MF sip+ direct stocks+ other.

For the other investment you are the best judge but here again I would humbly appeal to you to avoid equity MFs and direct stocks considering your age and high risks associated with these asset type direct exposure.

I propose you to invest in equity savings fund instead which are less riskier then pure equity funds and can yield decent return too. I recommend two funds in this category with best returns on 5 yr criteria & AUM above 1K Cr. Mirae Asset equity savings fund and Kotak equity savings fund.

A 2 L sip into these two funds for 4 years will yield a corpus of 1.16 Cr (Modest return of 9% considered). This will fully cover the cost of education for your son.

The best aspect of your financial planning which I admire and respect is No loans, well covered for mediclaim, term insurance and investment in real estate.

I have given my opinion, ultimately you are the best judge.

Feel free to revert in case of any query.

Hi I am 44 years old working for almost 21years now. I have accumulated close to1.6Cr of corpus through diversified portfolio in FD, MF, Stocks etc. I am undergoing health issue post recovery from a major illness and not able to mentally and physically cope up with the demand of the Job which is paying me around 2.5L/Month. I want to settle for a less demanding job even at 50% lesser salary. With my current corpus how to invest it so that i get a monthly interest to maintain my current lifestyle without reducing my corpus.
Ans: You can buy immediate annuity from an insurance company for your corpus of 1.6 Cr as joint holding by you and your spouse and return of purchase price to you, your spouse or nominee either after completion of tenure or expiry of the annuity holder/s.

Assuming modest rate of 6% will yield you a monthly income of 80K per month(pre-tax).

You can always negotiate and shop to get a better rate for your annuity.

If you suppliment this with low stress, less exertion job at 50% of your current salary you will have monthly income of 1.25 L + 0.8L = 2.05 L per month.

Although annuity rates are typically lower you can lock them for a longer tenure.

Most companies or banks offer 5 year FDs.

Few do offer 10 year FDs but then you have TDS deducted at 10% from your interest payout. Also FDs are not entirely risk free.

In case of annuity TDS is not deducted, so far, since tax liability is with the annuity holder.

Please do take care of your health and wish you speedy recovery.

In case you any other concerns, feel free to revert.

Sir, I had invested in HDFC Sanchay Plus in Long-Term Income Plan. It was a insurance and regular income plan for a period of 30 years. I paid up for five years as mandated by the policy. The pay out would commence from 7th year annually upto 30 years. The principal amount would be paid on completion of 30th year of enrollment. I appears the return of investment was less than 5% and diminishes further with time. I decided to withdraw from the scheme however the HDFC Life is deducting a huge sum from the invested amount. I requested to atleast return the principal amount invested without any add-on. But HDFC Life is referring to the policy clause and declining to return the invested amount. How can I retrieve the invested amount in this scenario. Thanking you in anticipation.
Ans: Most of the people make this mistake of considering insurance coupled with investment as good combination. The fact that insurance regulator allows insurance companies to use words such as "Guaranteed", "Assured" which entice gullible investors, makes things more difficult.

Endowment or money back policies never yield return over 5 to 6%.

Even ULIP policy returns above a threshold will now be subject to long term capital gain tax apart from fund management, policy administration and other heavy charges during first 5 years.

Insurance is for pure protection hence term insurance with appropriate riders is best option.

Unfortunately there is no way you can seek higher surrender value payment because you are contractually obligated by the terms and conditions of the policy agreement.
