Hi Fishes

Need some financial advice. I have recently reached 30Lakh bracket and doing following investments already. (Mentioned at last)

Need suggestions from you all where to diversify the portfolio. Don't want to invest only in stocks or MF may be some insurance wealth policies Deloiare those good etc.

1. PPF - 50k annually
2. NPS - 50k annually
3. Term insurance - 1222 monthly
4. Max life insurance- 76000 annually
5. MF - 4k monthly
6. Stocks - Depends on market average 50k annually.

You're trying to play safe and get a lot of money. We all do that but honestly 76k in life insurance and <1L/year for MF and stocks is shocking for me. I think you need to review your strategy and get some good advice. Am sure ur insurance isn't term plan.

I have just reached the bracket. Earlier I was into bit lower bracket and bought some property self earning.

From this month on salary also increased and debt also paid off

Ur investment portfolio is very small , i should say you should atleast triple the amount ,

If u are unmarried and not tied with any big emis , you should do atleast 40% of your salary into investments

Please don’t consider amount going in insurance as investments
Second if you don’t like stocks I would request you to increase contribution in EPF and PPF they give out 8.1 and 7.1 ROR respectively you could opt for VPF to increase EPF contribution.
If possible also increase amount going in stocks and purely invest in index funds

I would suggest don’t look for advice online on stocks it will be a mistake rather do some analysis (fundamentals) and go with your understanding. Win or lose you will learn something. If you don’t know anything about stocks and also don’t have time for same go with index funds.
Don’t book loss you can offset with profit later on so that no tax needs to be paid

You can check for a shriram monthly income plan that also provides life cover and regular income after a few years of premium payment.

If you consider the monthly return they promised to minimum inflation it's, nothing.

If direct equity is not comfortable for you, go with MF/ETF with tax harvesting.
With MF also you can have kind of fixed income it's call SWP. Systematic Withdrawal Plans.

Hello people,

Need some inputs!

When I file my ITR, it is auto-populating the 'income from other sources' by 40k and increasing my tax liability by 10k however form 26as shows no tax liability.

Should I edit the header to Rs. Xx which is below 10k hence tax exempted and stick to info as per 26AS?

Thanks a lot!
