Career

I am a Solar Engineer(28 years and unmarried) working in an MNC company for past 6.5 Years with very nominal salary of around 40k per month which perfectly fits to me only. Due to slow down of Solar business and increasing competition, I am not expecting our company growth which directly impacts our pay. I am also looking opportunities parallely in different domains like IT industry(have knowledge) etc., and one of my favourite is Travel and Tourism. Please recommend my next move. Thank you in advance.

Ans: Hi,
You are working in an MNC Company for the last 6.5 years and it seems that you are settled there. Solar energy would be in demand in a next few years due to the green initiative adopted by most of the world power. I would suggest you to stick to the current company.

I am currently working fora leading FMCG company. I have a total experiemce of 20 years + in sales & marketing, Operations . I have been a multitasking individual. My salary is a 1.13 lac per month which is very hard to continue. I was in the insurance , banking but now have been in the FMCG industry for the past 12 years now. I am in a senior level as well. Kindly suggest me what next to do..I want a change and also need a 2nd income to sustain as well.
Ans: Hi Trilok! Your current CTC per month is not matching your work experience. To evaluate whether you are being paid fairly, I use a formula of the years of work experience with a 1.5-2x multiplier - so you should be at 30-40L. The sector that you are working in is experiencing ups and downs thus you should focus on how you can contribute by looking at up-skilling yourself. Sales, Marketing & Operations are integral functions for each and every sector & there is scope for a lot. These are a few steps I will recommend:

- Work on specific projects within your organisation in the domain where you want to build expertise in
- Utilise your time to pursue an online executive/ general management program (more focused on training than theories) to acquire leadership and managerial skills. It will strengthen your business acumen and shall boost your skill proficiencies for taking up added responsibilities within your organisation
- Use metrics to define your efforts within your org so that also allow them to compensate you fairly. Also with the right upskilling you should aim to get the right increment for yourself.

Relationship
My boyfriend tells about us to his parents his parents rejected our relationship due to intercaste and they also stop talking to him it's been 4 months his mother don't talk to him .He is in navy . And they also started searching girl for him . He want to maintain distance from me he is not happy he is stressed as his own parents are not talking to him And also maintaining distance to me he talks to me me but just because I can't live without him but he changes in behaviour what to do
Ans: Dear Shruti,

I am sorry that you are in this situation. First of all, please try to look at it from your partner's perspective. It isn't easy to confront your parents and it's even harder when they stop communicating altogether. Having said that, I also understand how it is for you. It is not fair, especially in today's day and age, to face discrimination based on caste.

You have two options:
One, you wait patiently, emotionally support your boyfriend, and hope that his parents come to their senses and realize that we are living in 2024, and caste-based discrimination is ridiculous. In this scenario, you do have to let go of your self-respect and have to face many more hardships, that much is guaranteed.

The second option is you hold your head high and move on. Yes, it isn't what you hoped for when you emotionally invested in building this relationship, but unfortunately, these things are still happening. In this scenario, you will be sad for a long time, but you don't have to compromise on your self-respect and you will move on and live to see happier days with someone who respects you and sees you for who you are and not your caste.

Now, the choice is yours.

Best Wishes!

Hi sir, i have total 10k for investment of which I'm currently investing 7000rs in icici prudential nifty 50 index fund for 15-20 years, and ready to put 2000 rs for investment.My goals is to earn a cagr of more than 15 percent with 10 k for 15-20 years with little risk. Also suggest some term insurance without good claim settlement ratio and coverage upto 1cr
Ans: Hello,

Given your investment amount and goals, here are some suggestions:

Investment Strategy:

Additional SIP:
Invest the additional ?2,000 in a diversified equity mutual fund to balance your portfolio.
Choose a fund with a track record of consistent performance and a lower expense ratio.
Goal of 15% CAGR:
While aiming for a CAGR of 15% is ambitious, it's crucial to understand that higher returns generally come with higher risks.
Opt for a combination of equity and debt funds to balance risk and return.
Consider small-cap or mid-cap funds for higher growth potential, but be prepared for increased volatility.
Term Insurance:

Coverage of ?1 Crore:
You can consider term insurance plans from reputable insurers that offer coverage up to ?1 crore.
Compare premium rates, features, and claim settlement ratios before choosing a plan.
Claim Settlement Ratio:
Look for insurers with a high claim settlement ratio, indicating their reliability in settling claims.
Avoid insurers with a history of low claim settlement ratios or negative reviews.
Remember, while aiming for higher returns, it's essential to assess your risk tolerance and invest accordingly. Diversify your investments across asset classes and regularly review your portfolio to ensure it aligns with your financial goals and risk profile.
