WHAT ABOUT HBL Power Systems Ltd, I am having 1000

Ans: Kamlesh, With a GATE Biotechnology score of 536, admission to M.Tech Biotechnology at most NITs is unlikely since recent closing GATE marks for general category ranged from about 610 at NIT Warangal to 547 at NIT Rourkela, all exceeding your score. Moreover, NITs generally mandate a four-year B.Tech/B.E. in Biotechnology (or allied engineering disciplines) or a master’s in life sciences; holders of a three-year B.Sc. without mathematics at the 12th level must first complete a relevant M.Sc. to meet eligibility criteria. Focus on enrolling in a two-year M.Sc. in Biotechnology to fulfill NIT eligibility and strengthen your subject foundation, then reattempt GATE aiming above 550 to align with NIT cutoff trends; alternatively, explore M.Tech programmes in self-sponsored categories at NIT Calicut or other institutes that accept M.Sc. graduates, ensuring you secure the required qualifying degree background. All the BEST for Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Ans: Dear Friend,
At age 50, with ?3.5 crore in equity mutual funds, ?50 lakh in debt funds, and ?50 lakh in savings (total ?4.5 crore), and monthly expenses of ?50,000, you are well-positioned to retire in a year. Your retirement plan should aim to protect capital while ensuring growth and stable income. Start by allocating your corpus into 60% equity (?2.5–2.7 crore) for long-term growth and 40% debt/liquid (?1.8–2 crore) for short- to medium-term income stability. Park two years’ expenses (\~?12 lakh) in liquid/ultra-short-term funds. Initiate a Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP) from debt funds to draw ?60,000 monthly. Keep ?50–75 lakh in safer options like FDs or short-duration debt funds for children’s education. Ensure comprehensive health insurance for both spouses. Review and rebalance asset allocation every 3–5 years. Prepare a will and maintain a 6-month emergency fund. This approach will provide a sustainable, inflation-adjusted income and peace of mind throughout retirement.

Ans: Hello Subham
It is not possible to compare these two branches with pros and cons because they are separate fields in medicine. Your interest is more important. Most students dislike BVSc due to its working nature. But if you are from a village and want to stay there after graduation, then BVSc can be a strong option. Compared to BVSc, BDS can be considered a white-collar profession.

Good luck.
