The duration you wish to invest, your risk taking ability and present investments are vital information that will help us offer you a customised plan. In the absence of the same, we assume that you will be investing for 5+ years, below are the suggested categories and schemes.
You can still consult your advisor to further finetune the suitability and allocation.

Now I am 60 years old and have Rs 20 lakhs to invest for my retirement life. I want to invest Rs 18 lakhs in a good hybrid fund and opt for SWP. Could you suggest best three funds in this sector? How much money I can withdraw monthly from this? Please suggest a best flexi cap fund to invest Rs 20 lakhs. – Jayapal, Kakkanad
Though SWP is an allowed option, you can think of opting for a conservative
payout ranging from 8% to 9% on a per-annum basis. Since you have specifically asked for Hybrid funds, you can consider Conservative hybrid or Equity Savings category, though at present, we do not have recommended schemes in this category.
