Meaning

SIPs are a smart way to invest regularly for long-term financial growth.

Definition

SIP stands for Systematic Investment Plan. It’s an investment strategy where you invest a fixed amount at regular intervals into mutual funds.

How It Works

You commit to investing a set sum (e.g., ₹1,000) every month. This amount is automatically debited and invested, similar to a recurring deposit but in the stock market via mutual funds.

Benefits

SIPs encourage financial discipline, average out your purchase cost (rupee-cost averaging), and help build substantial wealth over time for various goals.
