Nitin has been investing in all the major asset classes. But to achieve his financial goals,
he needs to structure them accordingly.
Ideally at his age, he should have a 60% exposure to equity, reducing it over time to
10% at the time of retirement, thus maintaining an average of 35% equity to 65%
debt.
To cover the immediate medical requirement for his parents, he should move INR 8
lakhs from the FD upon maturity, and transfer that money into liquid funds.
This will give him the flexibility of a savings account with higher interest, and
further, there is no interest loss in case of pre-closure like that in an FD. He should
maintain another INR 2 lakhs in savings account for the same purpose.
Rate of Return typically expected on an FD is 6.5% (after tax), and on liquid funds is
7.5% (after dividend distribution tax)

Parameter Annual (INR)
Home Loan EMI 5,40,000
That is close to INR 3,37,000 each year (liquid yield of 7.5%) along with an EMI of INR
5,40,000. That will take the total payout for the year at INR 8,77,000, thus repaying the
entire loan in around 5 years
You will have to tell him the amount he needs to invest, to create the intended
retirement corpus after 25 years.
This amount should be invested in the ratio of 35% in equity with 11%
return(estimated), and 65% in debt with 8 % return(estimated), thus creating an
average rate of 9 %(estimated).
We can find this amount using the future value of annuity formula.
Where:
FV(A) is the value of the annuity at time = n, i.e. the retirement corpus
A is the amount he needs to invest each compounding period
i is the periodic rate of return on his investments
n is the number of payment periods
.09/12
Thus, he needs to put aside INR 22,300 every month to get a retirement corpus of INR
2.5 crores after 25 years (considering monthly compounding).
