Dear Ritesh,
You should have given your portfolio with your first query itself.
Anyway, Right now, your lumpsum investment is Rs.1 lakh.
Your monthly outgo via sip is Rs.6000.
Your target amount is 12 lac in 6 years time.
Your 1 lac @ 15% returns (conservative) will get you around Rs.2,30,000. Still leaving a balance of Rs.10 lacs.
Your 6000 sip will @ 15% returns earn you around 6,80,000 still leaving a gap of nearly 3 lacs.
For you to get 10 lacs in 6 years @ 15% returns (I am being conservative), you will need to invest Rs.8819 per month. Say @ 18% returns, you will need to invest Rs.8060, which means you have to either hike your sip from 6000 per month to at least 8000 or extend your time horizon from 6 years to 7 and half years.
The choice is yours.
And also remember, your 12 lacs worth home will also have risen to more than 12 lacs due to inflation, etc. I hope you have taken that into consideration while arriving at your goal of 12 lacs.

Best of luck,
Srikanth Shankar Matrubai
