Focuses on public sector units. It's sector-specific and carries higher risk.
Quant Small Cap Fund Direct Growth:
Invests in small-cap companies. High risk with potential for high returns.
SBI Small Cap Fund:
Another small-cap fund. High growth potential but volatile.
Aditya Birla PSU Equity Fund:
Similar to SBI PSU fund, with sector-specific risk.
ICICI Infrastructure Fund:

Investment Strategy Adjustment
Balanced Portfolio:
Diversify investments into balanced funds for stability. This helps mitigate sector-specific risks.
Debt Funds:

Equity Funds:

Achieving the Rs 20 Lakh Goal
Lump Sum Investment:
Consider a lump sum investment in a balanced fund or debt fund. This could help you reach your goal with lower risk.
Increase SIP Amount:
Increasing your SIP amount will boost your savings. Focus on funds with consistent returns.
Short-Term Debt Funds:
Invest in short-term debt funds for better returns than a savings account or FD. They are less volatile.
Final Insights
Your current investments are sector-specific and high-risk. Diversifying into balanced and debt funds will provide stability. Increasing your SIP amount or making a lump sum investment in a balanced fund can help achieve your Rs 20 lakh goal in one year.
