Dear badrinath,
First of all, thank you for you very nice words on my blog.
Before answering your question, I happened to go through your blog (http://badrirathod.blogspot.com). I was shocked. You are aged 24-25, if I am not wrong. And you already have a kid!!!. Good.
And now, 6,00,000 per annum means a saving of Rs.50,000 per month. A Huge Saving Indeed for a Assistant Manager in a Bank. I was in a dilemma. It is not a big headache suggesting ULIP/Mutual Fund. But what stopped me, how come a person with MBA in Finance Specialisation is asking for my advise. Then it stuck me, Yes, you want to TEST my knowledge and maybe try to make a fool out of me.
So, sorry, Mr.Badrinath. I do not feel you are asking this question with any sincerety. You yourself are competently qualified to advise yourself and would definitely not need my advise. If you still feel you do, do visit my blog and under the tag "Financial Planning", you will find number of advises similar to your query.
Best of luck,
