Sir,what is the best secured return where i get monthly pay out into my account for an amount of say 28 lakhs. Can i choose Sriram unnati Fixed deposit (non banking) @ 8.05% for 36 months or FD of Canara bank @ 7.44 % for 444 days. Presently, i am getting 6.88% only in SBI FD Also, if i get some money of say 70 lakh from sale of land, where should i secure invest for the security of my family, where they get recurring income every month with best return.

Ans: Choosing between the Sriram Unnati Fixed Deposit and Canara Bank FD depends on your priorities and risk tolerance:

Sriram Unnati Fixed Deposit: Offers a higher interest rate of 8.05% for 36 months. It provides a relatively higher return but may involve higher risk compared to bank FDs due to being a non-banking institution. You need to ensure thoroughly and research the credibility, repaying capacity and reputation of Sriram Unnati before investing.

Canara Bank FD: Offers a lower interest rate of 7.44% for 444 days but is backed by the safety and security of a nationalized bank. It provides relatively lower returns but offers greater safety and stability.
For the lump sum amount from the sale of land, consider a diversified approach:

Debt Funds: Invest a portion in debt mutual funds, which offer relatively higher returns than traditional bank FDs while maintaining liquidity and stability.

Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP): Invest in a mix of debt funds or balanced funds and set up an SWP to receive regular monthly income. This provides flexibility and potentially higher returns than FDs.
Consult with a financial advisor to assess your risk tolerance, financial goals, and investment horizon before making any investment decisions. They can provide personalized recommendations tailored to your needs and help you build a diversified investment portfolio.

I am engineer with 16 years of IT experience and now a break of 11 yrs. But in 11 yrs I had been taking Quantitative aptitude lectures as a visiting faculty in various engineering and MBA colleges and also done Mutual fund certification. I haven't been siting but doing many things professionally in last 11 yrs(In my subject of interest as Maths, Teaching, Finance, Accounting, Wealth Management). I was thinking of doing ESG certification. What kind of role I would get if i am CFA ESG certified.I am looking for Professionally and intellectually engaging role where I can contribute to Society. Not a very NGO type( I have tried working with few NGO's)
Ans: I won't recommend you to go for ESG certification unless you are having a background of Env. Engg and Environmental Impact Assessment. The certificate course of ESG is costly also. I would request you to open your own academy ( if off line not possible then online) and go for only one subject. Let me know your age.Focus only on one subject. You have explored many areas and now you are perplexed. Here the questions are assigned to me through rediffmail. So second time whether your question will come to me or not is not known to anyone of us. Due to the policy I can’t share my email ID and Phone Number. But I would request you to follow me in LINKEDIN and send request so that I can accept you, then through LINKEDIN I can counsel you in the future multiple times. Through LINKEDIN I will be readily and easily accessible. I have counselled and changed thousands of lives. As long as I am there I won’t allow you to be defeated. Mind that always I am there with you like an invisible shadow to show you the right career path.
