These gift cards available in three denominations of Rs.201, Rs.351 and Rs.5,001.

Next year's premium towards both these insurance plans will be kept in savings account (Rs.342).
Remaining Rs.4,317 will be converted into an FD of either 5 yrs or 10 yrs which will fetch an interest of 8% per annum. This deposit generates a yearly income of Rs.345.36 and be utilised towards the premium payment of both the schemes.

Common errors that couples make while investing

Most couples plan their strategies together but make mistakes while investing. Here’s how they can avoid the common errors Make no mistake. Ignorance is no longer bliss. In fact, many couples goof-up while investing together because they are not financially transparent to each other and don’t share a common goal. KEEPING SECRETS You may find questions from your spouse as an intrusion into your privacy, but financial planners believe that sharing financial details with each other is the first step that a couple takes towards their family financial goals. If you plan to invest together, then it’s important that you should be transparent to each other on the financial front. The whole idea is that you should be able to determine how much you will set aside for investments after making all the deductions for personal and household expenses. IMBALANCED APPROACH As a couple, you may have huge assets and hold stocks, but it’s important that you should direct a part of the investments for emer...

Avoid NFOs

Don't get taken in by the flurry of new fund offers. You will be better off sticking to the tried and tested schemes. For the past one year, to cash in on the bull run in equities, mutual fund houses have gone on a new fund offer (NFO) overdrive. But experts are unanimous in their advice: avoid NFOs . While past performance is not an indicator of how a fund will fare in the future, it does tell the investor how skilful the fund manager is. This crucial information is missing in an NFO. Not only is there no track record to judge an NFO by, many NFOs are similar to funds that already exist. If the new fund is similar to existing funds, you are better off investing in the latter. Around 67% of the new launches in 2014 were closed-end products. Investing in the NFO of a closed-end fund is doubly risky. In case the fund's performance is lacklustre, a closed-end fund does not allow you to exit. Even though closed-end funds are listed on the stock...
