Fund query: How to plan SIPs when you have home loan EMIs
×
I am 33 years old, and had been investing in MFs through the SIP route. I was planning a for long-term investment, mainly towards a retirement corpus. But two years ago, I decided to purchase a premium apartment by a very reputed builder. Since then, I have had to temporarily stop my SIP investments to manage the down-payment, EMIs and other related expenses. I currently have investments in Axis Bluechip, Kotak Multicap, ICICI Prudential Large & Mid Cap, Aditya Birla Sun Life Equity Growth, and L&T Midcap. I wanted to know if I should exit/switch from the underperforming funds. Also, recently, I started investing ₹10,000 a month in NPS as I thought it a good choice for retirement. I plan to continue SIPs in Axis Bluechip. Should I make any changes to my plan?
Fund query: How to use SWPs for post-retirement expenses
×
I am an NRI and have accumulated ₹1.5 crore through SIPs over the last 10 years. I am 61 years old and plan to settle in India after I retire, one year from now. I hold ICICI Prudential Equity & Debt, Invesco India Contra Fund, Tata Multicap, ICICI Prudential Balanced Advantage and Mirae Asset Emerging Bluechip. If I were to use a Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP) from these funds to generate an income of ₹30,000 a month, do I need to change my mix of funds? Do I need to keep more in debt funds as the market is volatile? Should I do SWPs from one fund or many? I would also like my income to grow 6 per cent a year. What are the tax implications?
