How to build a ₹1-cr education fund for my children in 12 yrs?
Mint Hyderabad
|December 05, 2024
I'm 35, planning to invest ₹50,000 monthly for my kids' higher education in 10-12 years, aiming for ₹1 crore. Should I focus on equity mutual funds, debt funds, or a balanced mix? What's the ideal asset allocation, and which funds or strategies must I consider? Should I review and adjust my portfolio periodically amid market volatility? —Pratik Sharma
Investing through mutual funds offers flexibility in terms of liquidity, risk-based choices, and return potential, making them an excellent tool for achieving long-term goals like funding your children's education.
Given your 10-year investment horizon, equity mutual funds are the ideal choice for building your target corpus, as they typically outperform debt and hybrid funds over longer timeframes.
