₹10 cr in 15 years? You'll need more than just SIP discipline
I've been investing in mutual funds through systematic investment plans (SIPs) as well as some lump sum amounts. Currently, my mutual fund portfolio is worth ₹31 lakh.

Additionally, I have ₹50 lakh in EPF, with a monthly contribution of ₹34,000. My goal is to build a corpus of ₹10 crore in the next 15 years, to fund my retirement and my two children's education. Am I on the right track?
