i have 2 crs from sale of property and my liablity for capital gain tax comes in july 2024 , can you suggest good investments options where i can get maximum returns
Ans: With a substantial amount from the sale of your property and considering the impending liability for capital gains tax, it's essential to explore investment options that offer potential returns while also considering tax implications. Here are some suggestions:

Equity Mutual Funds: Invest in a diversified portfolio of equity mutual funds based on your risk tolerance and investment horizon. These funds have the potential to offer attractive returns over the long term, although they come with market-related risks.

Debt Mutual Funds: Allocate a portion of your funds to debt mutual funds, which offer relatively lower risk compared to equities. Debt funds invest in fixed-income securities like government bonds, corporate bonds, and money market instruments, providing stable returns.

Tax-Saving Investments: Explore tax-saving investment options like Equity-Linked Savings Schemes (ELSS), Public Provident Fund (PPF), or National Pension Scheme (NPS) to avail of tax benefits while generating returns.

Consult a Financial Advisor: Given the significant amount involved and the tax implications, it's advisable to consult a financial advisor who can assess your financial situation, goals, and risk appetite to provide personalized investment recommendations.

Remember to diversify your investments across asset classes to mitigate risks and achieve your financial objectives effectively. Additionally, consider the liquidity needs, investment horizon, and tax implications before making any investment decisions.

We are selling a flat in the month of July 24 for 60L.How much will go as capital gains tax. What are the bonds we can invest? How much interest it will earn & lock in period?
Ans: When selling a flat for Rs 60 lakhs, the capital gains tax you will owe depends on how long you held the property. If less than 2 years, the profit will be taxed as short-term capital gains(LTCG) at your applicable income tax slab rate
If you held the property for more than 2 years, the profit is taxed as long-term capital gains at 20% with indexation benefits. Indexation adjusts the purchase price for inflation, which helps reduce the taxable amount.
for Example Let's say you bought the flat 10 years ago for Rs 30 lakhs. After applying indexation, your adjusted cost might be around Rs 45 lakhs (rough estimate). Your capital gains would be: 60L (sale price) - 45L (indexed cost) = 15L.The LTCG tax would be 20%(your income tax rate of Rs 15 lakhs, which is Rs 3 lakhs.
Now let’s see How to Save on Capital Gains Tax? You can save tax on long-term capital gains by investing in Section 54EC Bonds. The Bonds You Can Invest In are REC (Rural Electrification Corporation) Bonds/NHAI (National Highways Authority of India) Bonds, PFC (Power Finance Corporation) Bonds
The Key Features of Section 54EC Bonds are Maximum Investment: You can invest up to Rs 50 lakhs in these bonds within 6 months of selling the property. Lock-in Period: The lock-in period for these bonds is 5 years. Interest Rate: The current interest rate is around 5-5.25% per annum, but this can vary depending on market conditions.

Hello Sir, I'm 44 years of age and want to plan for creating a corpus of 5 Cr by age of 60. I have 40L lying in savings which I want to invest in MFs and start with Monthly SIP as well apart from this. At 60 I'm looking to start a SWP, in regards to this could you please suggest which MFs should I invest in to achieve this goal and how should I diversify SIP and lumpsum investments? Thank you!!
Ans: Hello;

Please deploy the 40 L staggered over 6 months in pure equity mutual funds.

Also start a monthly sip of 40 K for 16 years.

You may allocate sip and lumpsum as follows:
1. Flexicap type mutual fund for eg. PPFAS flexicap fund[G] (25%)

2. Large and Midcap type mutual fund for eg. Kotak equity opportunities fund[G] (25%)

3. Midcap type mutual fund for eg. Nippon India Growth fund[G] (25%)

4. Smallcap type mutual fund for eg SBI small cap fund [G] (12.5%)

5. Thematic type mutual fund for eg Tata Digital fund[G] (12.5%)

Funds recommended are in top quartile in terms of performance in their respective category.

Both sip and lumpsum investments will yield you a corpus of 5 Cr+, 16 years from now, as desired.

After 55 you need to transfer your gains to liquid or ultra short duration debt funds to protect it against market volatility.

After retirement you move your corpus to conservative hybrid debt type mutual fund for eg. Kotak debt hybrid fund and do an SWP at the rate of 3% annually you may expect a monthly income of 1.25 L(pre-tax).

Happy Investing!!

Hello, I m 21 female I m in a long distance relationship with 32 year male.this person was behind me and always asked me to give him a chance to prove his love for me. At that period i was afaird of relationships as I didn't have courage to go against wish of my parents as i know they wolud never agree for love marriage,so that is fir sure i'll do arrange Marriage. All these things have been explained by my side to this person.He gad feelings for me thats what he showed to me even I felt a connection towards him, so we decided let's not commit anything anout marraige as we both wee not sure about these thing. After some time i realised these person has already made his mind ki he'll date me and he wanted to have everything that an relationship has but he will not marry me.But i m completely in love with.Even i told him about it ki I can't share him n won't be able to see him.with someone else.i just can't imagine myself without him. I fought with him even begged and cried but he always defend his self sayi g i told already ki he loves me and will keep loving me but will not marry me . He vists me after 6-9 months interval every time he visuts me he needs to have physical relationship. I don't know whether I m right or wrong but i feel like I m being used by him. I tried several time to end this relationship but i end up chasing him.Plz help me,guide me
Ans: Dear Rutuja,
If you have the slightest feeling that he doesn't share the same feelings for you as you do for him, or that he has wrong intentions, you have every right to end the relationship. In fact, that would be the right thing to do. I understand that it is difficult to break up with someone you love, but does he love you? Don't you think you deserve someone who loves you and does not make you feel as if you are being used?

Have a clear conversation with him- address all your concerns. If he still maintains his stand of not getting married to you, then let him know that you are not on the same page as him. Remember, for a relationship to work, your future goals need to align.

Best Wishes.

I am a girl who met a muy in a friendly chat app and been talking to him through text and calls since the past 6 months...he told me about his past 3 breakups which were online too and he didnt meet those girls.He told he loved my nature and loves me madly n cannot live without me..i was moving with him as a friend initially,but feeling turned into love gradually..he lied to me about his name too n i found many a times flirting and chatting with other girls.Still i have forgiven as he is my first love. Recently,I met with an accident and was in a serious condition ..my phone was with my relative and she told him about my condition when he put a message to me.He even asked my relatives about the hospital address n my relative has given it. He didn't turn up and was chatting online with other girls till early morning n continued later too by chatting n cracking jokes when i was in such a serious condition.A friend of mine told me about this. When i confronted him after my discharge,he told my relative didnt give the response which is a lie ..as the proof chatting with other girls is there..n later he didnt even text to know how am i for 2days.. I am an emotional girl ,attaching n detaching is a bit difficult thing...i am broken ..when he didnt love me ..what made him use the words like he cannot live without me n will marry me. He asked for a chance,i am fed up of his lies..i made him introduce to my parents also..When i am so true to him..why does he need to chat n flirt with other girls?..even after knowing my condition instead of meeting me..he was chatting.. We still didnt meet,thought of meeting n met with an accident Does he deserve an other chance or should i leave him,please suggest mam.Why is he doing so?.I even helped him small amounts financially too when he asked for.
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I am very concerned about the last part of your question where you mentioned helping him financially. We ask all our dating app users not to discuss money let alone involve in a financial transaction with an online match. It gives me the impression that he might have been pursuing the relationship with you for monetary benefits; I am not saying that with surety but there is always a chance of that happening.

And now let's address your main concern- if you should give him another chance. I cannot decide that for you but let me ask you one thing- do you think you deserve to be with a person who did not care that you were in a critical condition and continued flirting with others? Even if we keep your accident aside, do you think it is a healthy relationship where one partner keeps flirting with people outside the relationship? I don't think so.

Please make the right choice and don't focus on momentary happiness, think about how this relationship will affect your future.

Best Wishes.
