Uncertainties abound in life and one has to be prepared for any financial emergency that may strike anytime. Start of a new financial year provides such an opportunity to bring one’s finances to shape.

Let us see how and what are some of the important things that one needs to do early on so that the entire FY goes through smoothly. Young and new investors can take a cue from these while the old-timers may consolidate their money matters. Here are few things to consolidate and take stock of in the FY 2022-23, for a better control of one’s finances in the years ahead.

Start with a plan in place

Do not initiate making any investments, tax savings or buying insurance unless you have a financial plan in place. Making financial decisions on an ad-hoc basis might be financially damaging in the long run. There is a greater possibility of not making the right or under-provision for your needs, making untimely entry and exits from investments etc if a plan does not exist.
