Shall I increase my amount in the current sip or start investing in large cap stocks. Please suggest. My daughter is 11 months old.

You have a five-year goal. We would not recommend investing in equity mutual funds with a five-year horizon. You should invest in equity mutual funds only if you have an investment horizon of at least seven years. Equity is extremely risky in the short term. It can also get extremely volatile. That is why equity is recommended only for long-term investments.

We always ask investors to choose mutual funds based on their their goals, investment horizon, and risk profile. For example, if you are a conservative investor looking to create wealth without too much risk and volatility, you should invest in large cap schemes. If you have a moderate risk appetite, you may invest in flexi cap funds. We wont recommend risky options to you since you are new to mutual funds.
