Ans: hello Ravi

It's great that you're thinking about investing in mutual funds at a young age. Here are some general guidelines to help you get started:

Determine your investment goals: Start by figuring out what you want to achieve with your investment. Do you want to save for a down payment on a house, build an emergency fund, or create a retirement nest egg? Having clear goals will help you choose the right investment vehicle.

Assess your risk tolerance: Consider how much risk you're comfortable taking with your investment. Younger investors generally have a longer time horizon for their investments to grow, so they can afford to take on more risk.

Consider your asset allocation: Diversification is important to help manage risk. Consider dividing your investment among different asset classes, such as stocks, bonds, and cash.

Consider the mutual fund's investment style and past performance: Look at the fund's investment objectives, the types of securities it holds, and its past performance.

Remember that investing in mutual funds is a long-term strategy, and it's important to be patient and stick to your investment plan. It's also a good idea to periodically review your portfolio to make sure it's aligned with your goals and risk tolerance.

Consulting a financial advisor can be helpful in creating a personalized investment plan that takes into account your specific goals, risk tolerance, and financial situation

Ans: Firstly i would suggest you to earmark a particular amount every month from your salary for MF SIP.
Then make a basket of funds such as emergency funds, short term , mid term and long term funds.
The break up can be 5L - 10L in emergency funds kept aside and post that the % can be 20% in small caps , 20% in mid caps, 20% in multi caps, 10% in thematic funds, 20% in large caps and 10% can be optional. Email me for a lenghty discussion on this topic

Ans: As a beginner, consider starting SIPs in diversified equity funds or balanced funds for moderate risk exposure. Allocate a portion to large-cap funds for stability and the rest to mid-cap or multi-cap funds for growth potential. Choose direct plans with low expense ratios for better returns. Aim for a diversified portfolio across sectors and fund houses to spread risk. Regularly review your investments and gradually increase SIP amounts as your financial situation improves. Consult a financial advisor to tailor a plan based on your risk tolerance, investment horizon, and financial goals.
