WHAT IS SYTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN?
A Systematic
Investment Plan or SIP is a smart and hassle free mode for investing money in
mutual funds. SIP allows you to invest a certain pre-determined amount at a
regular interval (weekly, monthly, quarterly, etc.). A SIP is a planned
approach towards investments and helps you inculcate the habit of saving and
building wealth for the future.
HOW DOES IT WORKS
A SIP is a flexible and easy investment plan. Your money is auto-debited from your bank account and invested into a specific mutual fund scheme.You are allocated certain number of units based on the ongoing market rate (called NAV or net asset value) for the day.
Every time you
invest money, additional units of the scheme are purchased at the market rate
and added to your account. Hence, units are bought at different rates and
investors benefit from Rupee-Cost Averaging and the Power of Compounding.
POWER OF COMPOUNDING
Due To The Power Of Compounding The Money That You Inested Will Give A Profit% Of 15%-20%
The More years
You Invest More Beneifit Is For You.
However, if you
started investing 10 years earlier, your Rs. 10000 each month would add up to
Rs. 36 lakh over 30 years. Assuming the same average annual growth of 7%, you
would have Rs. 1.22 Cr on your 60th birthday - more than double the amount
you would have received if you had started ten years later!
Other Benefits of Systematic Investment Plans
· Disciplined Saving - Discipline is the key to successful investments. When you
invest through SIP, you commit yourself to save regularly. Every investment is
a step towards attaining your financial objectives.
· Flexibility - While it is advisable to continue SIP investments with a
long-term perspective, there is no compulsion. Investors can discontinue the
plan at any time. One can also increase/ decrease the amount being invested.
· Long-Term Gains - Due to rupee-cost averaging and the power of compounding SIPs
have the potential to deliver attractive returns over a long investment
horizon.
· Convenience - SIP is a hassle-free mode of investment. You can issue a
standing instruction to your bank to facilitate auto-debits from your bank
account.
