My holding time for these will be 10yrs.

Will my corpus be 45 lakh after 10 years?

Omkeshwar Singh: Too many small caps, however, if you have the risk appetite then no issues.

Yes, Rs 15 lakh can become Rs 45 lakh in 10 years, however there will be high volatility as majority of your investment is in small caps.
