Boss why not buy simply the ETF on NIFTY? All your pick seems normal companies who wont beat return on FD?

Im sorry Mani. I just saw your comment. Can you please suggest me few sectors that would perform well...

I would like to create some asset for my parents - a longterm basis not less than 10 years but could be more certainly..

Kindly suggest me few sectors and stocks in the same that would perform well for the next 10 years..

Thanks in advance :-)

My suggestion is to start SIP for at least 36 months and preferably 60 months in HDFC Prudence MF scheme. Since you are doing this for your parents, you can choose Dividend option in case they need income now. If immediate income is not required, go for Growth option.

If you are willing to go for higher risk, you can try one of IDFC Premier Equity - Plan A or ICICI Prudential Discovery MF scheme. (Toss coin to decide between the two )

If you can go for even higher risk, you can try Reliance Pharma Fund.

Personally I would go for IDFC Premier Equity - Plan A, but everyone's choice and situation is different.

No share can be guaranteed to perform well for 10 years, without periodic analysis.
For more than 10 years go for index or large cap mutual fund.

Thank you very much Sudash and Atiker :-)
