One can start learning the Vedas and Upanishad immediately after Upanayanam.
Males can start with Srimad Ramayanam, Srimad Bhagavad Gita, and meanings of other Mantras soon after samashrayanam.
Need not wait to start learning anything after bharanyasam.
However, these days it is a practice to teach Srimad Ramayanam, Srimad Bhagavad Gita, etc. to one right from a young age. It is better to go by the advice of Acharyas and wise men.
Notes:
One starts with Srimad Ramayanam and Srimad Bhagavad Gita as storytelling for young children. But there are rules to be followed to learn the actual meaning.
