Editor Responds : If I assume your age of retirement to be 60, you still have four years left. In this case, I would suggest you to invest in a mixed portfolio (50:50) of equity and debt mutual funds. This will not just help you provide better inflationadjusted returns, but also help you reduce the overall risk of your portfolio. Moreover, once you are in your retirement phase, follow the bucket investment strategy as explained in this story.
