Your portfolio is very good but needs a bit trimming and just a bit of rebalancing. Because of being blocked in SBI Infrastructure, you can't obviously switch out from it, but you do need to reduce your exposure in Infrastructure Funds from an overall 11.5% to under 5%. So, it would be prudent if you could sell/switch Tata Infrastructure to Tata Balanced Fund as I do not see any Balanced Fund in your portfolio. You can stay on with UTI MNC Fund as it's investment horizon is being widened to Indian Domestic Companies which derive substantial revenue from International markets. Your large cap ratio of investment is very small at 11.5% and Midcap exposure is rather high at 28%, so you could switch from Birla Mid cap to Birla Sunlife Frontline Equity Fund. You should also a substantial part of your investment in Franklin Prima Plus to Templeton India Equity Income Fund. Regarding Debt Funds, you better stay invested in Equity Funds for better returns and maybe look to add some Balanced Funds. Considering your time frame of 3 years, you should definitely reduce Infrastructure and Mid cap funds and add Large Cap and Balanced Funds. Best of luck. Regards, Srikanth""
