Fund Query: Factor in inflation while setting financial goals
×
I am 39 years old and a doctor by profession. I started investing in mutual funds and bluechip stocks from January 2021. I have invested ₹5,500 in DSP Midcap, ₹5,000 each in Axis Bluechip, Parag Parikh Flexi Cap and Axis Mid Cap, ₹500 in Axis Long Term Equity, and ₹1,000 in SBI Equity Hybrid. I have an SIP of ₹2,000 a month in SBI Small Cap. Thanks to
BusinessLine Portfolio Star Track MF Ratings for helping me choose. I plan to withdraw from DSP Midcap and SBI Equity Hybrid if the ratings drop further. How can I calculate how much to invest per month? Here are my goals: retire by 65: ₹1 crore; education of two kids, 18 years from now: ₹2 crore; and their weddings, 25 years from now: ₹1 crore. I would appreciate if you can tell me how to set goals, because what I have set is very arbitrary.
