How to plan your retirement corpus and charity fund?

April 10, 2024 by dhanvyapar.com

My retirement is about 8 years from now and, so far, I have ₹52 lakh invested in mutual funds and stocks, ₹25 lakh in a Public Provident Fund (PPF), and roughly ₹26 lakh in my Employees’ Provident Fund (EPF). My monthly expenses amount to around ₹1 lakh, with savings of ₹62,000 per month. This year, my EPF contribution is ₹1.2 lakh. Additionally, I aim to allocate ₹15 lakh for charity work, post-retirement. How do I structure my retirement corpus?

—Name withheld on request

If we consider inflation of 6% then the monthly amount required for regular expenses at the time of your retirement will be ₹1.60 lakh. The inflation will continue during your post-retirement period as well. If we assume an overall portfolio return of 9% per annum (p.a.) during the post-retirement period, then you will need a corpus of ₹3.45 crore. This accumulated amount can easily help you take care of your post-retirement stage for 25 years.

Your present investments in mutual funds, stocks, PPF and EPF, including an annual contribution of ₹1.20 lakh every year in EPF, could help you reach ₹2.35 crore at your retirement. The charity amount of ₹15 lakh today will be close to ₹24 lakh at your retirement, assuming 6% inflation. Hence, we need to invest to build the additional corpus of ₹1.34 crore for your retirement and charity work requirements. As you have 8 years for retirement and do not have any short-term objectives, you can consider investing in equity mutual funds. You already have a monthly investment from your salary getting invested in EPF, hence investing the bare minimum amount in PPF, going forward, could be a better strategy as it will allow you to invest most of the amount in equity mutual funds.

Assuming a return of 12% p.a., you will need to invest ₹86,000 per month to build the complete corpus for both your goals. As your present monthly investible surplus is ₹62,000, you can still reach the goal by increasing your monthly investment by 11% every year.

Dwarka Expressway — MoRTH constructed its second-highest length of national highways in a fiscal in FY24 with 12,349 kilometres, next to FY21 when it built 13,327 kilometres of NH.

The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has constructed 12,349 kilometres of national highways across India in the last financial year, which concluded in March 2024, reported PTI. The report further stated that MoRTH reached its second-highest level of national highway construction in FY24, next to FY21, when it constructed a record 13,327 kilometres of NH across the country.

In FY23, MoRTH reportedly constructed 10,331 kilometres of national highways, while in the previous financial year, in FY22, 10,457 kilometres of national highways were constructed across India. Back in FY20, national highways of 10,237 kilometres were built, stated the report.

Quoting a government official, the news agency has reported that in FY24, the MoRTH awarded a total of 8,581 national highway projects across India. He reportedly also revealed that the capital expenditure including private investment during the last financial year touched an all-time high level of ₹301,200 crores. According to the official, the total length of national highways across the country increased 1.6 times in the last 10 years. He reportedly claimed that while the total length of national highways across India was 91,287 kilometres in 2014, it has increased to 146,145 kilometres in 2024.

Further revealing the initiatives of MoRTH, the government official stated that the Indian government has launched a pilot project to provide cashless treatment to road accident victims. Under this initiative, road accident victims will be entitled to cashless treatment of up to ₹1.5 lakh, for which the costs will be borne by the government.

Meanwhile, MoRTH is also planning to introduce a new toll tax collection system across India, which would abolish the FASTag and conventional toll plazas across the country. Instead, the ministry is planning to introduce a GPS-based toll collection system, which will make it necessary for all vehicles to come equipped with GPS.
