Education costs in India are rising at 10-12% annually — far outpacing general inflation. A 4-year engineering degree that costs ₹10 lakh today will cost ₹26 lakh in 10 years. For overseas education, the picture is even more daunting — expect ₹50 lakh to ₹1 crore for a single degree. Without disciplined planning, parents either compromise on their child's dream college or take expensive education loans that burden the entire family.
At WealthGuard, we believe every child deserves access to the best education without financial constraints. We design education corpuses that account for inflation, currency fluctuations (for overseas studies), and your child's specific aspirations — whether it's IIT, AIIMS, IIM, or studying abroad. The earlier you start, the smaller the monthly investment required.
We combine government schemes like Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana and PPF with equity mutual funds to build a balanced education portfolio. Our quarterly reviews ensure you stay on track, and we adjust the plan as your child grows and their interests evolve.

Common questions about child education planning
The earlier, the better. Starting when your child is born gives you 18 years of compounding. Even ₹5,000/month invested at age 0 can grow to ₹50+ lakh by age 18 at 12% returns. Starting late means much higher monthly investment is required.
Top private engineering colleges cost ₹15-25 lakh for 4 years. Premier IIMs charge ₹25-30 lakh for a 2-year MBA. Government colleges are cheaper (₹3-8 lakh) but highly competitive. Plan for the higher range to be safe.
For US/UK undergraduate degrees: ₹80 lakh to ₹1.5 crore. For master's degrees: ₹40-80 lakh. Australia and Canada: ₹50-90 lakh. We help you plan based on the country and course.
Generally no. Child insurance plans bundle insurance with investment, leading to high costs and low returns. We recommend separate term insurance for protection and mutual funds for wealth creation — this gives better outcomes.
That's why we build flexible corpuses, not course-specific funds. The money saved can be used for any educational path your child chooses — engineering, arts, sports, entrepreneurship, or anything else.
