Increasing your savings along with a rise in income helps meet goals

I am 30 years old and planning to get married after two years. My annual income is about ₹ 7.2 lakh and my house rent is around ₹ 1.15 lakh per year. How much should I invest and in what forms (SIP, FD, PPF etc.) to create a portfolio which would give me better returns?

I am 45 years old and investing ₹ 3,000 each through SIPs in ABSL Tax Relief’96, Motilal Oswal Long Term Equity, ABSL Equity Advantage, ABSL Frontline Equity, Mirae Asset India Equity and Kotak Standard Multicap; ₹ 4,000 in HDFC Hybrid Equity and ₹ 5,000 in Motilal Oswal Multicap 35. My goal is to build a corpus for retirement and I want to accumulate at least ₹ 1.50 crore. Are these funds good or should I switch to others? Please advise.

You currently have monthly investments of ₹ 27,000 in eight mutual fund schemes. The schemes are spread across hybrid, large-cap, large-and-mid-cap, two ELSS funds and three multi-cap funds. While the fund selection is good and the portfolio is also diversified, the exposure in ELSS as well as multi-cap funds can be reduced by a fund each. You can add a mid-cap/small-cap fund to the portfolio to complete the diversification. NextMAds
