Answered by Prashant Joshi, Co-founder & Partner, Fintrust Advisors:

Portfolio overlap between Axis Long term equity (ELSS) and Axis Bluechip is high. If you need ELSS fund for tax saving, you may stop allocating to Axis Bluechip fund. You can increase the allocation towards PPFAS Flexi Cap, Kotak Flexicap Fund & Mirae Asset Emerging Bluechip. Any sectoral allocation should be tactical and for a limited period. And since the client's risk appetite is high, additional funds can be allocated to Mid & Smallcap funds.
