NFO UPDATE: ABSL BAL BHAVISHYA YOJANA!

 

Dear Readers,

RichVik, in association with Aditya Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund, presents the ‘Bal Bhavishya Yojna’, where your fund grows with the inflation-beating returns and helps your child’s dream turn into a reality!

Let’s ask our self that “Are we saving enough for our child’s Education?

Your child’s dream are precious.

One day they wish to be astronauts; the next day they want to be doctors. There are no limits to a child’s imagination. As parents too, you hope to give full reign to their dreams. But, have you also factored in their reality?

Are your old savings methods enough to match up the space? Here is the quick analysis:

Sr No Scheme Name Returns
1 Sukanya Samridhi Scheme 8.5 %
2 Fixed Deposit (FD) 6.85 %
3 National Savings Certificate (NSC) 8 %
4 Recurring Deposit (RD) 6.85%
5 PPF 8 %
6 Kisan Vikas Patra (KVP) 7.7%

 

Do you think these schemes can compete against the swelling cost of education?

 

Can you carry the weight of their dreams?

With a rise in career avenues, more candidates are vying for the same seats.

Recent data from 2008 to 2018 shows that the no of applicants for –

  • IITs have gone up from 1.78 lakhs to 12 lakhs
  • Medical entrance exams have gone up from 2.3 lakhs to 12 lakhs
  • CAT exams have gone up from 96k to 2.31 lakhs

Well, the cost of Education is rising by leaps and bounds.

In the last 10 years alone, education fees have risen by –

  • 150% for school and tution.
  • 175% for private schools.
  • 96% for technical courses.

And for high in-demand degrees, fees have drastically inflated –

  • By 10 times in the past 15 years, for an MBA from top-ranking institutes
  • From Rs 90,000/- in 2016 to Rs 2 Lakhs in 2018 for an under-graduate degree from IITs
  • From Rs 50 Lakhs to Rs 1 – 2 Crores in the past 15 years for pursuing medicine.

It doesn’t end here. Fees is just one aspect; you’ll also have to account for:

  • Possible inflations in tuition fees
  • Day – to – day expenditures
  • Exchange rate fluctuations for higher studies abroad
  • Expenses related to international travel and accommodations

Is there a solution? Yes, EQUITY is a better avenue!

  • 15.00% in 20 years
  • 14.57% in 15 years
