Women need to plan for Retirement

Plan for Retirement Online
 
 
 
Higher life expectancy, lower pay and fewer work years necessitate thorough planning.
 
Women have raced ahead of men in various fields but, when it comes to retirement planning, they tend to lag behind. Despite saving a higher proportion of their salary, compared to men, women generally do not take retirement planning seriously. Below are some of the reasons why they should: According to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, in India, the life expectancy of women is 69 years and, of men, it's 66 years. Due to this, a woman will need an additional `55 lakh to manage her living expenses (see table).Besides, usually, women work fewer years compared to men to take care of children and family.Further, a recent study by Korn Ferry Hay Group shows that women in India earn 18.8% less than men. Not to mention, a higher life expectancy can also mean higher medical expenses as the likelihood of health ailments such as diabetes, high blood pressure, joint pain etc. increases with age. Given the decks are stacked against women, it becomes all the more important they take retirement planning seriously.
 

What to do?

Women should invest a substantial part of their income regularly, right from the early years of employment in order to build a sizeable retirement corpus. A young woman should allocate a major part of her portfolio to equity mutual funds in the early stage of her career. This will help her build a good retirement corpus. It is also advisable that they restructure their portfolio in later years, depending on their risk appetite. Financial knowledge is key. Women should increase their financial know-how. This will help them make the right investment decisions and generate better returns on investments.

The role of the women in society is gradually changing. They are breadwinners in many families. As a head and responsible members of the family, they should make retirement planning top priority. As high lighted, the retirement needs of women differ from men. In order to meet them, it is important that a woman starts investing in financial instruments besides fixed income securities. They should also work for a longer period to accumulate greater wealth as the benefit of compounding is at its best during the later years of one's accumulated corpus.

How Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) works?

    THE tax season is here. And if you are an employee you can't blame your employer for deducting large chunks of money from your salary towards tax deducted at source ( TDS ), which he is legally obliged to do. Your bank will also deduct some percentage from your FD interest of Rs 10,000 or more towards TDS! So what is this TDS all about? How is it computed? Are there any changes this year? Read on... What is TDS? TDS reduces your taxable income and could even provide tax relief! The TDS collections account for 40 percent of the total taxes collected in the country. As the name suggests TDS is the amount of tax that is deducted at source in certain types of income . The TDS thus collected is deposited in the Government treasury within a specified time. How is it computed? Some of the types of income where TDS is applicable include salary, interest, rental fee, interest on securities, insurance commission, dividends from shares and UTI/Mutual Funds, commission and brokerage

Modern day balanced mutual fund approach

Buy Gold Mutual Funds Invest Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Call 0 94 8300 8300 (India)   In reality, most balanced funds have a strong tilt towards equity instead of a mix of equity and debt THERE are various types of mutual funds available to investors with specific features. Often investors have a particular idea about a specific type of funds in terms of their features and risks, but that is not what is actually available. Therefore, it is necessary for an investor to understand the actual position before picking up a fund. This requires some work on the part of the investor. One example can be the situation with balanced funds. Name is not representative: One of the first things that an investor has to understand is that the name of the fund is often not representative of its investment pattern. The name often represents only the aim of the fund, and not what it actually is.
