We often tend to ignore matters like not considering tax payments rightly, not realizing that the Inflation risks are very high and more. We should hence always keep inflation issues in mind and make right invest, should protect our current purchasing powers and must view risk factors in the right perspective that we often tend to ignore,” He felt and added that
We should also review our investments every year which 80 percent of the Indians tend to miss upon always.
“Make investments with your perspective and never follow others investment ideas blindly. Do not take advices for free and invest either. Always value good advise by people with wisdom and never take unnecessary debts. You must also build the right portfolio and align your investments with the goals you have.” he further said and added: “Based on those plans made, you need to align your investments. I recommend not looking for discounts or a rebate in investments and feel you should go in for things that are undiluted. Because, having the right financial goals for life are always challenging and nothing will come for free. So it is important for you to ensure and set the right financial objectives.”
Stating that it is good to invest in mutual investment in today’s market trend because they have diversification, he said also said that it is good to save money and commit to oneself because an income minus savings is always equal to expenses.

Earlier, CII Mysuru finance and taxation convenor Mr S Raman Kumar welcomed the gathering. In his address, Mr Raman said that India traditionally has been a conservative and risk free returns expectation market and people too would traditionally invest only in things like bullion, real estate and direct equity or mutual funds earlier. However, with the returns falling down and home loans being available at very lower rates, people have been now looking at newer avenues to improve their returns.
“Hence, an investor awareness programme as this has been organized, in order to help people undertake proper financial planning, set right goals and rightly utilize the products available to achieve the set objective” he explained.
