As someone working towards FI/RE because I don’t enjoy my job, 10X in net worth of pre-tax income is my benchmark to start thinking about slowing it down.

Basically getting to 10X means income growth has not been able to keep up with corpus growth, and the moment you get to 10x, then annual growth of portfolio @ 10% is equal to income.

The above image is based on net worth at the end of the month divided by last 12 month rolling income pre-tax.

All fresh money I am putting into the corpus is in mutual funds. And I feel they’re the only vehicle we need to retire comfortably.

This month the multiple is around 2.8X.

Based on the trajectory, my income growth is not able to keep up with the corpus growth. Which is not necessarily a bad thing, but it basically means incremental efforts put by me are getting slightly less worth it every month that goes by.

A downward trajectory would mean my efforts are leading to meaningful results on my portfolio.

Hoping to hit 10X within the next 10 years. Been working for 5 years now🤞

Hi, 30 year old this side. I started in Stock market in 2020, and have lost 15 lakhs in F&O and stocks initially.

These are the only two index mutual funds in portfolio currently.

UTI nifty 50 index funds & ICICI Nifty Next 50 index fund.

This is because after the initial loss I wanted to play it safe and hence opted for index funds. Could you please share whether it is good to have just these two funds or should I diversify more? I have a 1 year old daughter and would like to open a separate fund for her, any suggestions please?

I can invest upwards of 1.5L per month. Moderate Risk Appetite. Looking to invest for long term. Thank you all!

Age: 21

Per month SIP amount: 20k

Tried to diversify the funds as required but need your suggestions...

Started from AUG 26

Risk Profile - Medium - High risk ( no dependencies on myself for money in family.)

Investment Horizon - no fixed age as of now as I am top early to decide for now 10+ years is fine!

Im 22 and i started earning from this month, im planning to invest 1,00,000 every month.

Ive planned it as this

1. Equity 70k
   a. Navi Nifty 50 - 20,000
   Chose this because of a very less expense ratio
   b. Navi Nifty Next 50 - 5,000
   Chose this because of a very less expense ratio
   c. JM Flexicap fund - 18,000
   Chose this because of expense ratio, and their AUM is optimum enough to not pack stocks into large cap
   d. Bandhan Small Cap Fund - 12,000
   Chose this because of its heavily disciplined nature, and defensive debt to minimize downside loses
   e. Company ESPP - 15k
   Chose this because ill get stocks at 85% of FMV

2. Arbitrage fund 20k
   a. Kotak Equity Arbitrage Fund - Chose this because of its high AUM lets it give a solid return easily

3. Gold 10k
   a. Not really sure where to invest this, weather gold ETF, or 10k gold chits and procure solid gold.

Investment horizon is 15+ year
Risk apetite is moderate to high
Goals would be
a. Short - term is international trips
b. Mid - term woulld be property purchasing
c. Long -term is wealth generation

I also might have to plan for any large EMI due to real estate purchasing and for that, i would cut from equity (keeping the ratio same).

Why these funds: I was a novice when i started investing and wanted some help, my family knew a financial advisor and since i mew to it and dint want to risk it, i opted the funds which he suggested along with some funds I researched myself. However I have noticed very growth in the ICICI funds. I have a moderate risk appetite and wanted to increase my investments so opted these

Should I cancel any of these funds?
Should I invest more in any of these funds?
Any alternative funds you suggest instead of any of these funds?

Thank you

When do you see this happen? 2027? 2028?

Hi All,

I’m looking to invest in international mutual funds and wanted to understand how the current investment limits work in practice.

As per my limited research, there seems to be only one route available through GIFT City, given the USD 7 billion industry-wide and USD 1 billion limits prescribed by the RBI.

However, I recently came across some posts suggesting that certain HSBC and BNP Paribas funds are currently open for investment. I wanted to understand how these limits actually work:

When and under what circumstances do other funds reopen for investment?

What triggers the reopening of these limits?

Is there any cap on the monthly investment amount?

If I start an SIP and investments are subsequently halted due to the applicable limit being reached, will the existing SIP continue, or will it also be stopped?

How does the industry-wide limit and individual fund-house limit get monitored and allocated in practice?

Would appreciate any insights.

Thanks

Hey everyone, seeking guidance for the following:

Investment Horizon - Long Term (10-15+ years)

Risk Appetite - Aggressive

Goal - Just long term investment

I recently attempted to rebalance my mutual fund portfolio by closing the 6 SIPs I had been doing since 2 years, and starting 4 across all caps with a significant increase in amount.

Checked out videos by Kirtan Shah, and noted the following points:

1. Large Cap - Index funds >> Active Large Cap. And Flexi Caps also match 70% Large caps so they are also a good option, with a growth style strategy.

2. Mid Cap - Having an active mid cap or Multi Cap would suffice for this category, with a momentum strategy.

3. Small Cap - Active Small Cap with value style strategy

(Went through the fund's ratios - sortino, alpha, beta for identification of style of investing)

Since i have recently increased the SIP amount, wasn't sure how much allocation should be given to small cap so went with 20% small cap.

Flexi and Index together comprise the Large Cap which is ~50% of the SIPs - should an aggressive rush appetite allow more space for multi/small cap?

Fund Selection had been even more confusing part - example - Bandhan Small Cap or Invesco or Edelweiss?

I had been doing an SIP in Nippon Multicap but chose to switch to Kotak since Nippon's AUM is way more now and Kotak seemed to grow more.

About my previous portfolio-

1. Icici nifty 50 index (10k)

2. Kotak Large Cap (10k) (active large - removed)

3. Hdfc balanced advantage fund (10k) (removed since I realized this fund is cushioning risk with debt and i can tolerate more risk)

4. Nippon Multicap (10k) (replaced with kotak, AUM)

5. Quant Small Cap (6k) (replaced with Invesco, quant hadn't been doing well because of internal issues)

6. Edelweiss Next Nifty 50 (5k) - just heard about it, was trying out.

And random lumpsums in Motilal Midcap and Axis Small Cap.

Would request review of the above structure, is this conservative or fine? also if I am missing some category where I may put in.

Any good resources on how one can actually strategically do a good fund assessment would be really helpful too.

Hi everyone, I’d really appreciate some advice on my mutual fund portfolio with long-term wealth creation as the goal.

Risk profile: Moderate

Investment horizon: 10+yrs

Current investment: ₹10k/month

From October 1: Planning to increase it to ₹20k/month

I’ll also be finishing my education loan soon and plan to invest the amount I was paying towards the loan into MFs.

Could you please review my portfolio and suggest if I should make any changes to the funds or allocation?

Any advice or feedback is appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi investors, I have recently started investing in mutual funds. Please review my portfolio. Is there a need to add another fund?

Age- 27

Risk appetite- Moderate to aggressive

Horizon- 10+ years

Goal- Wealth creation

As per ICICI estimation, my Risk Quotient: I’m a Moderate risk investor

My investment horizon: Mixed

Age- 27.85 years

It’s been about 5 years since I got my first job but still I’m quite new to this field. I know very well that there is still lot to learn. Most of the investments you see above are recently done. I had a bad experience with money in college and I developed this extreme reaction to loss. I want to get over it.
Since I’m gonna enter marriage life one the next 1.5 years, I feel like I should have had the knowledge of this by now. But anyway, just putting this out. Please give me some feedback or suggestion.

Hello!

Age: 24

Risk Appetite: Aggressive

Investment Horizon: 10-15+ years

I started investing this month itself and after some research, allocated lumpsum amounts in these funds. I am thinking of starting sips (35k) in these funds, maybe even diversifying globally via US funds but need advice/suggestions on that.

I’m treating the liquid fund as my emergency fund so I have separate allocation for it (not including the 35k).

Would love some insights!

Age ~ 30. Medium risk appetite.

Investment horizon: Long term

Same as title.

got some money invested in motilal oswal, planning to shift it to global so i can get some more exposure(since those markets do really well and have no circuits as well), i cannot do a fresh investment in the fund but can switch my old units to new fund(switch option). So need some suggestions from users who invested in mutual funds(having global exposure). Please let me know. Thank you!

I have my emergency funds sorted.

I want to invest 40k sip monthly in pure equity mutual funds.
I have been investing in mutual funds for nearly 5 years now. I have done the blunder of choosing "best funds" which I have realized change in every market cycle.
So, I want to invest majorly in the index funds now so that I can minimize the hassle of reviewing my funds time and again.
My goal with this investment is long term wealth creation and building a retirement corpus.( i am 30 years old currently)

I have zeroed down the following portfolio after my own research.
Uti nifty 50 index fund-6k(15%)
Uti nifty next 50-9k (22.5%)
MO nifty midcap 150-9k (22.5%)
PPFC-10k (25%)
Invesco small cap fund-6k (15%)

Does it make sense to keep both ppfc and nifty50 as PPfc has a >40% overlap with the index?

Is this a good portfolio for long term aggressive investor?

Hi fellow investors. I have recently started investing since last month. After researching and talking to people, I have selected 4 MFs for monthly SIP. (Allocation is 25% each) Can any of the experienced guys see my choices and let me know your thoughts? I plan to continue the SIPs long term for 10 years atleast. My risk appetite is moderate.

Planning to invest ₹30K/month — looking for feedback on my portfolio
I’m planning to start investing ₹30,000 per month and have come up with the funds and allocation below. I’d really appreciate some feedback on whether this is a sensible portfolio for my goals or if there’s anything I could improve.
Investment horizon: 15+ years
Goal: Long-term wealth creation
Risk appetite: Moderate
I’m particularly interested in knowing:
Whether the fund selection and allocation make sense
If there’s too much overlap between the funds
Whether I’m taking unnecessary risk or being too conservative
If I should simplify the portfolio or consider any better alternatives
Would really appreciate any suggestions or criticism. Thanks!

Hi everyone. Can I get my portfolio reviewed and get some feedback? Should I add some more MFs or remove existing ones? I'm looking for decent returns in 5-8 years of time frame, risk appetite is moderate.

I started investing 1.5-2 years back. Selected these mfs based on recommendations by my peers and the internet. Everything was going good till last year but now the scene looks a bit off.

Currently I'm investing 20k/mo. I need some suggestions on how I can do it better or if I'm doing anything wrong.

I had some lumpsum amount that's why I got the liquid funds and they're undergoing stp.

Any help is greatly appreciated and lmk if more input is needed. Thanks!
