Hello sir, I have started SIP in motilal oswal Nasdaq 100 of 100 fund since last 6 months. Should I continue with this?
Ans: Hello Vaibhav,

Firstly, it's essential to assess your investment goals, risk tolerance, and the suitability of the investment in your portfolio. The Motilal Oswal Nasdaq 100 Fund offers exposure to some of the largest and most innovative companies listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, providing an opportunity for diversification and potential growth.

Considering you've been investing in the fund for the past six months, it's a good start to evaluate its performance against your expectations and the broader market trends. While short-term fluctuations are common in the stock market, analyzing the fund's performance relative to its benchmark index and peers can offer valuable insights.

Additionally, review the fund's investment strategy, portfolio composition, and expense ratio to ensure they align with your investment objectives and risk profile. Regular monitoring of your investments is crucial to adapt to changing market conditions and make necessary adjustments to your portfolio.

Ultimately, the decision to continue with your SIP in the Motilal Oswal Nasdaq 100 Fund should be based on your long-term financial goals, investment horizon, and comfort level with market volatility. If the fund continues to meet your expectations and remains in line with your investment strategy, it may be prudent to stay invested.

However, if you have concerns about the fund's performance, changes in your financial situation, or shifts in your investment objectives, it's advisable to reassess your investment strategy and consult with a qualified financial advisor to explore alternative options.

Remember, investing is a journey that requires careful planning, patience, and periodic review. I encourage you to stay informed, stay focused on your goals, and make decisions that align with your financial aspirations.

Dating, Relationships Expert - Answered on Dec 04, 2025

Asked by Anonymous - Dec 02, 2025Hindi
Relationship
My married ex still texts me for comfort. Because of him, I am unable to move on. He makes me feel guilty by saying he got married out of family pressure. His dad is a cardiac patient and mom is being treated for cancer. He comforts me by saying he will get separated soon and we will get married because he only loves me. We have been in a relationship for 14 years and despite everything we tried, his parents refused to accept me, so he chose to get married to someone who understands our situation. I don't know when he will separate from his wife. She knows about us too but she comes from a traditional family. She also confirmed there is no physical intimacy between them. I trust him, but is it worth losing my youth for him? Honestly, I am worried and very confused.
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand how difficult it is to let go of a relationship you have built from scratch, but is it really how you want to continue? It really seems to be going nowhere. His parents are already in bad health and he married someone else for their happiness. Does it seem like he will be able to leave her? So many people’s happiness and lives depend on this one decision. I think it’s about time you and your BF have a clear conversation about the same. If he can’t give a proper timeline, please try to understand his situation. But also make sure he understands yours and maybe rethink this equation. It really isn’t healthy. You deserve a love you can have wholly, and not just in pieces, and in the shadows.

Hope this helps

IIT-JEE, NEET-UG, SAT, CLAT, CA, CS Exam Expert - Answered on Dec 04, 2025

My son will be appearing for JEE Main & JEE Advanced 2026 and will participate in JoSAA Counselling 2026. I request clarification regarding the GEN-EWS certificate date requirement for next year. I have already applied for an EWS certificate for current year 2025, and the application is under process. However, I am unsure whether this certificate will be accepted during JoSAA 2026, or whether candidates will be required to submit a fresh certificate for FY 2026–27 (issued on or after 1 April 2026). My concern is that if JoSAA requires a certificate issued after 1 April 2026, students will have only 1–1.5 months to complete the entire procedure, which is difficult considering normal government processing timelines. Also, during current JEE form filling, students are asked to upload a GEN-EWS certificate issued on or after 1 April 2025, or an application acknowledgement. This has created confusion among parents regarding which year’s certificate will finally be valid at the time of counselling. I request your kind guidance on: Which GEN-EWS certificate will be accepted for JoSAA Counselling 2026 — a certificate for FY 2025–26 (issued after 1 April 2025), or a new certificate for FY 2026–27 (issued after 1 April 2026)?
Ans: Hi
You need not worry about the EWS certificate. Even if you apply for the next year's certificate on 1 Apr 2026, the second session of JEE MAINS will still be held, followed by JEE ADVANCED, which will be held in May. JOSAA starts in June. so you will have 2 months in hand for fresh EWS certificate.
