Long-term ETF investing in India — are these ETF picks actually good

Goal - I (27) want to build a portfolio for the future maybe till retirement or marriage of kid (No kid as of now idk, their education should be a better reason because I wont be spending too much money on marriage Lol) idk

Horizon - 10+ years. My risk appetite as per Servey is Moderate.

I use Kite (Zerodha) for ETF Investment. Have not started investment in Gold/Silver.

I shortlisted 3 ETFs. I want to take an opinion on this.

Should I go for Index Fund for Mid Cap & Small cap because of volatility, bid-ask spread etc?

I will be able to track iNAVs for nifty 50 & next 50. So I have confidence in this.

Not sure about Gold & Silver investment.

Asking for an opinion. Would love to hear from your experience. Constructive criticism welcomed.

TLDR:

I’m building an ETF portfolio for long-term investing. Shortlist 3 ETFs each for Nifty 50, Next 50, Midcap 150, Smallcap 250, Gold and Silver.

I’d appreciate opinions from people who actually invest in these ETFs. Are there any questionable picks, better alternatives, maybe Index MFs too. I am thinking of index funds for Mid Cap & Small Cap because of their volatility.

EDIT: I shortlisted Niftbess, juniorbees, ICICI Prudential Gold ETF — GOLDIETF, ICICI Prudential Silver ETF — SILVERIETF (I am not fully confident for silver ETF).

I am still trying to figure out Mid Cap & small cap, because as per my research they have volatility so not sure I should go for ETF or index FUND.
