I am a doctor currently practicing in my home town with my wife.I have three financial goals 1. To accumulate atleast 1.5 to 2cr in 5 years - to establish a health centre 2. 15 cr in 15 years - for my kids education 3.25 cr in 30 years for our retirement Can you suggest us how to go about it?
Ans: Hello;

1. First target is to accumulate 1.5-2 Cr for establishing health centre. For the achievement of this target either you can do a flat monthly sip of 1.8 L for 5 years
Or
You may begin with a monthly sip of 1.25 L and top-up each year by 20% upto 5 years.

Both routes will yield you a corpus of 1.5 Cr for health centre as desired.

2. Second target is 15 Cr target for kid's education to be achieved in 15 years. For the achievement of this target either you can do a flat monthly sip of 2.7 L for 15 years.
Or
You may begin with a monthly sip of 1.2 L and top-up each year by 15% minimum upto 15 years.

Both options will led you to a corpus of 15 Cr for child education as desired.

3. Third and important target of retirement corpus of 25 Cr to be achieved in 30 years.
For the achievement of this target either you can do a flat monthly sip of 57 K for 30 years.
Or
You may begin with a monthly sip of 24 K and top-up each year by 10% minimum upto 30 years.

Either ways you will achieve your targeted retirement corpus of 25 Cr.

A modest return of 13% assumed for investments in pure equity mutual funds for all workings.
