Exams and all are over ... My bf didn't texted me .. I asked him do you want to talk or not the he sounded non interested while talking and then i asked him what happened to you as he said he didn't wanted to talk to anyone he needs time ... So I gave him its been a month... I asked him again .. he was visiting places with his friends( girl) but didn't want to talk .. he said he didn't want talk just want to travel and need some time . I asked him how much time u need its been past one month . I said him to talk to me on call and clear it and then he said that If you cant spend days without talking to me , if u can't understand my situation and can't wait then u can leave ... What should I do ?? Is it easy for boys to just end up things??

Ans: Your son should primarily target strong branches such as CSE specializations, ECE, or IT, or core branches at VIT Vellore, because his VIT options are significantly stronger than what he is likely to get through JEE Main. Before considering VIT, check its fee structure, which is usually very high compared to other colleges.

Good luck.

Ans: If you want to do MBA, dont take internship. Instead ensure that you get a work experience certificate whererver you work. Talk to the HR to ensure that they will give you work ex certificate and not internship certificate. Can prepare for MBA entrance exams like CAT along with your job.

Ans: With a JEE score, your chances at NITs/IIITs are lower. Please target Jaypee, AKTU colleges, and some private universities. With a VIT rank, you have a chance at CSE specializations/ECE at VIT, or CSE Core at VIT-AP/VIT Bhopal, which would generally be a better career option than compromising heavily on a branch in lower NITs/IIITs.

Ans: You are on a very strong financial path. Your disciplined investing since 2019, increasing income, strong retirement accumulation through PF/NPS, and controlled liabilities show excellent long-term planning.

» Current Financial Position – Strong and Stable

PF + NPS itself is already substantial for age 40
Mutual fund corpus of Rs 50 lakh is a major positive
SIP discipline is excellent
Only one loan and manageable EMI
Term insurance is adequate

You have built a solid foundation for both retirement and children’s future.

» Child Education Planning

Son has around 8–10 years for higher studies
Daughter has long investment runway

Your current SIPs and accumulated corpus are likely to support education goals comfortably if:

SIPs continue consistently
SIP amount is increased gradually with salary hikes
Investments remain equity-oriented for long-term growth

You should ideally:

Increase SIP by 10% yearly
Keep child education investments separate mentally from retirement corpus

» Retirement Planning Without Pension
Since you are under NPS and may not receive traditional pension, your self-created corpus becomes very important.

Positives in your case:

Long investment horizon still available
Existing retirement assets already sizeable
Regular contributions from PF + NPS continue automatically

This creates a strong compounding advantage.

» Can You Achieve Rs 3 Lakh Monthly SWP?
Your target is ambitious but achievable if:

SIPs continue uninterrupted
Annual increase in investments happens
Equity allocation remains strong for next 15–20 years
Major lifestyle inflation is controlled

With your present trajectory, your retirement corpus can potentially become large enough to support a meaningful SWP post retirement.

However:

Rs 3 lakh future SWP should be viewed in inflation-adjusted terms
Future value of Rs 3 lakh after 20 years will not have same purchasing power as today

So focus should be on:

Growing corpus steadily
Maintaining inflation-beating returns

» Important Improvement Areas

Do not depend only on employer health insurance after retirement
Add a personal family floater health policy while still healthy
Maintain emergency fund separately from investments
Reduce direct stock exposure if monitoring is difficult

» Housing Loan Strategy

EMI is manageable for your income
No need for aggressive prepayment now
Continue balancing loan repayment and investments

Your equity investments over long periods may create better wealth than rushing to close low-interest home loan.

» Finally

You are already ahead of many investors in your age group
Your consistency is your biggest strength
Continue SIPs, increase yearly, and stay disciplined
Your current direction is favourable for children’s education and retirement independence

With proper asset allocation and long-term discipline, achieving a strong retirement corpus and sustainable SWP income looks realistic.

Ans: Please ask the query in the follow-up section to get the link to the previous question?

Ans: Yes, you can usually appear again for the CBSE compartment/improvement exam in Physics in the next eligible session (including July compartment exams if CBSE registration rules permit that year). However, it is strongly recommended to contact your school administration for more and updated information. CBSE always communicates with schools if there are any changes to the appearing/improvement criterion.

Meanwhile, you can still pursue many degrees based mainly on overall aggregate marks, such as BCA, BA, B.Com, BBA, BJMC, design, hotel management, animation, psychology, liberal arts, and many private-university courses, because several colleges do not require subject-wise marks if you meet the overall passing criteria.

Good luck.

Ans: Your daughter has a chance of getting into Biotech either at Vellore (category 2-3) or Chennai (category 1-2). But VIT Vellore is generally the better choice for Biotechnology due to a stronger research ecosystem, labs, industry exposure, and overall brand value.

Good luck.
