You currently have investments in funds that fall in the ‘Equity: Large Cap’ and ‘Equity: Large & Mid Cap’ categories. We are assuming that the surplus sum you have is to be invested systematically every month. If that be the case, continue with your Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) in the four funds that you already own and add two more funds to your portfolio.
From the ‘Equity: Mid & Small Cap’ space consider either IDFC Premier Equity or BSL Dividend Yield Plus. From the ‘Equity: Multi Cap’ space, look at HDFC Equity or Quantum Long Term Equity.
