1-3 years is very short period. Also small caps have rallied a lot in last 3 years.
I would suggest you to invest in large caps and debt funds for upto 3 years.
If you are planning to stay invested for more than 5 years then only consider small cap

What's your risk profile, as previously mentioned in the comment 3 year is quite less, the power of compounding will only click if you stay invested for at least 6+ years.

Quant Small cap fund is good but highly volatile because of its exposure into small caps..

I would suggest not to invest in small cap funds for the time being. From a contrarian + relative safety, you should invest in large caps now.

Small caps are full of froth now and money is likely to move from small + mid to large cap in coming months

My partner and I bought our home back in 2020. We got a good deal, low rate. But we want to move into a more spacious SFH. However, as we all know this market is crazy. Everything we want costs $620k+ and bc of rates it makes our mortgage estimates $3500+. We are currently paying $2k. And it looks we need to sell the house simultaneously as look for a new one or our contingency isn’t as attractive. I know it’s based on personal circumstances. But what would you do? - not move, sell and buy?

We all know how inflation can derail our Retirement Planning dreams!!Though it's better to start investing as early as possible,but HEY, all is not lost even if you start little late. We all have our family responsibilities when we start our career, so "INVESTING FOR SELF" takes a back seat.
Just a perspective, even if someone at the age of 45 years starts investin for his retirement, he can decently manage the same with discipline and regular investing.
Happy to discuss with anyone on this!!

We all know- SIP of 50k/pm for 15 years at a CAGR of 12% p.a. grows to 2.52 Crs ( approx.). BUT

Do you know- If we delay it by just 2 years- the value falls to 1.88 Cr ( approx.) Difference is a WHOPPING 64 LACS, though the difference in Investment amount is only 12 lacs!!

THATS THE POWER OF COMPOUNDING!! AS THE SAYING GOES- THE BEST DAY TO START YOUR INVESTMENT WAS YESTERDAY!! Any view is appreciated!!
