Dear Jay, why do you want to invest in 10-15 funds? If 2-3 fund can not do it for you, 10-15 can’t do it either. Please put your 10000 Rs. either in your existing funds or the one I suggested above.
Thanks
Ashal
Dear Ashal,

Ashal
Actually I missed 10 year, now I am in 40’s I would have started this 10 year before. All these are happening because of Jagoinvester, my heart thanks to Jagoinvester.
Dear Debojyoti, dear Rokhan and dear Ashal
Thanks for quick advice.
I would be much thankful if you can suggest some good funds
SIP -10000pm
dear Jay,
dear Rokhan and dear Ashal has commented on your funds which are nearly similar. Please read dear Rokhan’s comment where he provided the similarity of underlying stocks for SBI Bulechip and HDFC qeuity, the different sectors (banking, finance, telecom, petroleum, etc) where your money is invested each month. If the stocks are similar, we don’t need two funds just for name sake and from two different AMCs. This is not diversification. I believe the diversification is when actually you are investing in different sector funds and you have stocks in different sectors which are for your different Goals which will be fullfilled after certain period of time. Experts can throw more light on this.
Coming to your question;
1. select funds based on the sectors where they invest your money rather by their name.
2. It is wrong statement that being a beginner, you need to go with Regular AMC rather than Direct. Even in regular AMC from HDFC, etc, will not provide you suggestion from their own interest unless you call them up for a help. Therefore, do your own research.
3. FundsIndia is a mere AMC. Earlier comment already describes why you need/not need FundsIndia.
thanks

Hi Rokhan/ Ashal,
Thanks for the information.
I started SIP on last month and below are current allocations, please review and advice where I can invest additional 10000PM
Other than charges any difference direct and regular plan? Do I require expert knowledge to manage my funds?
When I asked HDFC manager he replied you are beginner so better to go with regular plan.

Dear Jay, why are you not investing 50 funds? why only 5 funds? Are you really diversified among these 5 funds? Why are you not investing directly with 2 AMCs to save on expense ratio and thus earning a bit extra return over the period which ‘ll translate into a healthy extra corpus?
Thanks
Ashal

Do you see the number of stocks that are similar in both? If the portfolio is so similar is there a need for 2 funds.
I am sure you’ll get similar results with other funds as well.
Question of using FundsIndia is just whether you want a distributor to make your life easier or would you rather save on expense paid to AMC by going direct?
