Question#2 - I need to generate a corpus for my two Child education, son studying 7th & daughter studying 5th. I can invest for 5 to 7 years for both Child.

Dear Thothathiri, Under 'HDFC Life Super Income plan', the policy will acquire a Guaranteed Surrender Value (GSV) provided 2 full years premium has been paid for premium payment term of 8 years and 3 full years premium have been paid for premium payment term of 10 and 12 years. It is a traditional plan, so you may be better off surrendering it and divert the premiums into better investment options as per your financial goals. Considering the time-horizon and your financial goal, you may consider not to invest in L&T mid-cap fund. You may allocate more funds to HDFC balanced fund. Continue your MF investments till 1 to 2 years before you reach the goal target year. Kindly read below articles;
