PPF -80,000 per year
If I need to increase my SIP investment from 5000 to 10,000 which funds to choose?above one or new one?

I feel the portfolio is more tilted towards midcap. Try to reduce it either retaining any one of Franklin or Mirae. Instead include one pure large cap fund. For 10 years, manage equity:debt in ratio of 40:60. Your goal is 10 years, why you are investing in PPF, which is 15 years product.

You can invest in Franklin India Bluechip Fund. In my view, retain Mirae. For lump sum also use the same fund but with proper asset allocation based on how long you want to stay.
