8)For investment in FD/RD:
A)Fixed Deposits:(6 months-15 years)When you get a bonus/any investment
matures/a major chunk of money keep it in FD.Today, private banks like ICICI,HDFC
etc has made it really transparent where you can open through netbanking itself.The
minimum period is 6 months.They don't come under tax exemption but are a great
asset.Minimum FD period available is 7 days however I would prefer the money to go for
minimum 6 months.
B)Recurring Deposits:(6 months-15 years)-One should make a rule of always
having a recurring deposit in Life while you are earning.-Merely starts from 500 Rs and
the best middle duration (keeping best interest provided in mind) is 15 months-TaxableConvert your RD total (once it matures) into FD if you really don't need that moneyKeep minimum 2 RD's-Can be broken at any point of time-Highly recommended
NEW TOPIC
Congratulations!! At your age, very few people think seriously about investing. Most of
them think about spending and/or showing off with the latest mobile phones, latest
watches, latest bikes, latest cars.
YOU can expect to be a Crorepati by 2030 or much before, if you continue with your
investment orientation.
I am giving below some basic inputs on how to make safe investments in Mutual Funds
on a monthly basis and how to double your money every 45 years.
What are Mutual Funds (=MFs)?
When we invest directly in the stock market, we purchase shares ofAsianPaints, Infosys,
ITC, Nestle, TCS. But, as we are not experts, many times we buy & sell shares (=stocks)
at wrong prices which lead to unexpected losses.
So, instead of shares, wise people purchase MFs. Each MF is managed by a Fund
Manager who is an expert in buying & selling of shares. So, when you buy a mutual fund
worth Rs. 10,000/-, the Fund Manager buys many shares worth total Rs. 10,000/making sure that he is buying them at the right price. So,when you buy an MF, you dont
have to worry about buying individual shares. The Fund Manager does it for you.
MFs typically give about 15% TAX-FREE returns per year in the long run. In other
words, if you invest in Mutual Funds for 45 years, then your invested money will double
in 45 years. (In Bank/Company Fixed Deposits, Recurring Deposits etc. your money
will double only in about 8-10 years as you can get maximum 7-10% returns, and that is
also Taxable.)
Invest equal amount of money in the following 3 Mutual Funds every month. In other
words, start a monthly SIP (Systematic Investment Plan) by going through ICICI/
HDFC/ SBI or any other dependable bank or broker. Investing in these Hybrid/
Balanced Mutual Funds is a safe investment.
Axis Long TermEquity Fund | (Tax saver. 3 year lock-in.)
TataBalancedFund-Regular Plan
ICICIPrudentialBalancedFund
HDFCChildrensGiftFund- Investment Plan
These funds are managed by experienced fund managers. So, these are safe investments.
After you understand more about investments through MFs, you may invest in multi-cap
mutual funds after a few quarters.
Please note that directly investing in the stock market is very risky and you may lose your
money as it is a Very High Risk investment avenue. So, dont invest in stocks/shares
directly. Invest in MFs.
All the best!!
Most of the people think,
>> (Monthly Earnings minus Monthly Expenses) = (Monthly Savings)
In reality, it should be,
>> (Monthly Earnings minus Monthly Savings)=(MonthlyExpenses)
So, you should FIRST put your money in savings (=investment) on a monthly
basis and THEN start spending for the month from the balance money
available to you after your monthly systematic savings/investments.
It is great that you have already started thinking in this manner about savings and
investments.
