  1. Dear Brijesh, out of the 3 ELSS you want to invest in, please opt only one & invest the full ELSS amount in that. For other funds, it’s OK.

    If your yly income is 5-6L Rs. purchae a bigger term plan of say 60L or 75L Rs. & stop this small term cover. Within next 2-3 years the size of family ‘ll increase & your financial liabilities for your family ‘ll increase manifold.

    PPF is ok but make it a habit to invest (in lump sum) between 2nd to 5th of april every year to get full year’s interest.

    FMP, MIP & FD – each instrument caters different space & needs so identify your ones & then only decide.

    Thanks

    I think you have too many MF folios, you need to trim it down to avoid over diversification. Gold is fine and Term Insurance is fine. ULIP is a waste if you ask me. PPF is an excellent debt instrument. Go for longer tenure FD with a portion of your funds else a medium term FMP. You get tax advantage with FMP but with interest rates peaking out, you dont know what rate you may get if its for too long a duration. Since you got a sizeable period of time, go more for equity
