You haven't allocated enough for 80c deductions, use elss Or ulip for the same, similarly you have not put up insurance for tax saving.

Your diversification and asset allocation is good, however some suggestions
1. Too many funds from single fund house, better to move couple of sips to another fund houses.
2. Index fund returns are same/better than most of bluechip funds witch much lower expense ratio, u can switch to any nifty index fund from sbi bluechip

3. Since ur investing in Gold etf, for gold SGB is the best option

4. Why you’re investing 50K in RD with low return and higher tax , instead u can switch to any debt/liquid fund

5. Assuming ur 80C is covered by PF alone, not recommending and elss, else elss are good product for 80c

Deft/liquid funds are almost safe as rd/fd except some black swan events unless the country defaults, they invest mostly on rbi bonds

You have covered the lenth and breadth of types pf funds. but as pointed by someone. You can allocate some fund into ELSS and diversification in terms of AMC's. DM me can help you with it!

Hello everyone, need a help from you.

Previously my HRA amount was 96000 per annum so I was submitting a rental agreement of full hra without giving pan card details of myself and first party.

Now I have recently joined a new company and here hra is 2.7LPA.

How can I claim the full hra amount? I live in a rented house where agreement is between owner and my dad. Also owner will not accept for a fake agreement too.

Any other alternative do I have to claim HRA? Your inputs are welcome here
