What is SIP (Systematic Investment Plan)?

A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) allows investors to invest a fixed amount regularly (weekly, monthly, or quarterly) into mutual funds. SIP helps build wealth over time by investing consistently and benefiting from market growth and compounding.

SIP is ideal for both beginners and experienced investors who want long-term wealth creation with disciplined investing.

How Does SIP Work?

In SIP, a fixed amount is invested every month. Mutual fund units are purchased at different market levels, helping in rupee-cost averaging and reducing market risk over time.

• You invest a fixed monthly amount
• Units are purchased at the prevailing NAV
• Your investments grow with compounding
• Long-term SIPs give better returns due to market averaging
