    Hello Congratulation for starting financial planning at early stage.

    Mutual funds selected by you are good, However I suggest to reduce number of mutual funds in portfolio.

    You can remove investment in Franklin India smaller companies.

    In Stock market you can add SBI and LUPIN in your portfolio.

    Hello sir,

    I am new to MF investment . I have decided to invest forty thousand rupees(40000) per month in SIP for 10 year.I am already having insurance coverage, no home loan ,emergency fund for 1 year and investing 1 Lakh per annum in PPF apart from my regular PF contribution.
    I will select one MF from each category.
    Now my concern is suppose i started investing 40000 per month in SIP and down the line if i will not have regular income(i am in private job) to invest every month. In that case if i hold my already invested money in SIP for 10 year, it will be beneficial ?? what is the best option?
    Please advise me .

    Thanks & regards
    Ramesh

    Best option is to invest in Mutual funds with SIP route.History shows that in long run equity market gives best returns compare to other asset class.It is recommended to stay invested in mutual funds for long run.

    Hello Raviraj,

    Thankyou for your inputs on financial aspects. You are doing a wonderful job!

    I am 30 years old with one dependant on me. I am a moderate risk taker. I have been investing SIP 1000 pm in these 5 MF since Aug 2014.

    HDFC top 200, HDFC mid cap Opp, HDFC balanced fund, Can robecco eq tax saver, Quantam long term equity. I am a moderate risk taker. Please analyse my profile and suggest if any changes are required. Also, while filling the forms for MF i have stated the term as 3 years. However, after reading your blogs ,y understanding is that MFs give good returns if invested for long terms ie.8-12 years.

    My question is,

    1) How to increase the term from 3 years.

    2) I also want to increase the SIP amount from 1K to 2K. Is it possible?

    3) Should I add one more sector based MF or should just increase the SIP amount ion same MF.

    Thanks
    Vijay

    Dear Rameshkumar,
    Your portfolio is well diversified and taking care of mostly all sectors. You are on right track, however sometimes it is difficult to track multiple mutual funds. You are keeping 27 mutual funds in your portfolio I advise to reduce this number. Switch from non-performing mutual fund to performing mutual funds.
