INSIGHT

High Cost and Inflation of Education

  • Medical education can cost around 1.5 to 2 crores just for tuition fees in private colleges.
  • Education inflation can be 10-12%, much higher than general inflation, significantly increasing future costs.

Invest Early for Compounding Benefits

  • Invest for your child’s education corpus from birth to utilize the power of compounding.
