Here are some tips to use this toolkit
STEP 1
Check the sheet Budgeting and Expense Management Budgeting
The success of your investment journey depends on how well you manage your expenses
That's why Budgeting is the FIRST step of your financial planning journey
You need to break down your expenses into
-NEEDS
-WANTS
The best way to BUILD a portfolio is to limit your expenses and invest your funds
We don't mean live like a monk, but enjoy your life without splurging unnecessarily
STEP 2
Check the sheet 35 year investment plan 35 Year Investment Plan
This is an investment plan broken down into different investment options. We have considered an income amount that is something many people begin their job li
The more you increase your income, the more you can invest, and grow your corpus.
We have assumed you start working at 20 years, and retire at 55 years
Remember one important thing
Invest and then don't redeem unless you need the funds. Giving time to your investments to grow is essential to compounding
STEP 3
Check the sheet Returns Returns
This sheet mainly talks about the return on your investments based on their maturities
PPF has an initial lock in period of 15 years. It can then be renewed for 5 years at a time.
EPF will only mature once you retire at 55 years.
We have shown calculations for both
Mutual fund returns and NPS returns have been calculated using calculators that we have given links to in the sheet Calculators
We have separate calculations adjusting the returns for inflation
Remember this:
Income - Investments = Expenses
This way, you will always have enough money to save for the future
NEEDS
WANTS
अपने भविष्य के खर्चों को पूरा करने के लिए आज आपको अपने खर्चों पर नियंत्रण रखना होगा
Note:
We are calculating returns for both EPF and PPF. You can invest in either instrument.
EPF current interest rate is 8.5%
PPF current interest rate is 7.1%
The interest and maturity of EPF and PPF is tax free
Return taken on SIP is 12%
NPS investment is done till the age of 60, since we invested till 55, I adjusted the calculations accordingly. It is an approximation
If you stay invested in your mutual funds then your investment will keep growing as time passes.

Golden Rule No 1: No Bad Loans
Bad loans are loans that don't end up giving you an appreciating asset. In
simple words - if you take a loan for your wedding, you are not acquiring
an asset that will grow in monetary value over time.
Remember, if you CANT afford to buy the same thing TWICE, DON'T buy it in the first place!
