Wealth creation I want to generate a corpus of about 4 - 5 crores in around 20 years to attain these goals. I have sufficient life-insurance (Term-plan) & health insurance.

Dear Vandan, Thank you for following my blog posts! You are holding 14 Funds in your portfolio, investing in too many funds may not be really beneficial. You have multiple funds from same fund categories like Large cap, Multi-cap..suggest you to trim down your portfolio, kindly check portfolios overlap percentage among the funds (especially funds from same categories). Suggest you to go through below articles and you may revert to me with your analysis ; https://www.relakhs.com/mutual-fund-portfolio-overlap-comparison-tools/ https://www.relakhs.com/best-mutual-fund-scheme-risk-ratios/ https://www.relakhs.com/mutual-fund-categories-market-capitalization-large-cap-vs-mid-cap-vs-small-cap-funds/ https://www.relakhs.com/retirement-planning-calculator-3-easy-steps/ https://www.relakhs.com/calculate-kids-education-goal-amount/
