Concerning your article in the last edition on retirement planning - Other than NPS and mutual funds what are the other investment avenues to consider for retirement planning? - Suvik Chaudhari [EasyDNNnews:PaidContentStart]
Editor Responds : Beyond the National Pension System (NPS) and mutual funds, several investment avenues can strengthen your retirement corpus in India.
Public Provident Fund (PPF) is a government-backed option with guaranteed returns and tax benefits. Employee Provident Fund (EPF) is another low-risk option offered by most employers. Senior Citizen Savings Scheme (SCSS) caters specifically to senior citizens. Gold is a traditional hedge against inflation, offering long-term value. You can invest in physical gold, gold ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds), or Sovereign Gold Bonds. Unit Linked Insurance Plans (ULIPs) combine insurance coverage with investment in stocks and bonds. Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) allow you to invest in incomegenerating real estate properties through a trust.
Diversifying your investments across these avenues can help mitigate risks and ensure a stable income during retirement. Consider your risk tolerance, investment horizon, and financial goals when selecting investment options, and consult with a financial advisor to tailor a plan that suits your needs.
