Frequently Asked Questions
What is SIP?
SIP (Systematic Investment Plan) is a method of investing a fixed amount regularly in mutual funds. It helps you build wealth through disciplined investing and rupee cost averaging.
What is Step-up SIP?
Step-up SIP allows you to increase your SIP amount annually by a fixed percentage (e.g., 10%). This aligns with salary increments and significantly boosts your final corpus compared to a flat SIP.
How much should I invest in SIP monthly?
Start with what you can afford consistently. Even Rs.500-1000 per month can grow significantly over 10-20 years. Ideally, invest 10-20% of your monthly income.
What is a good return rate for SIP?
Equity mutual funds historically deliver 12-15% annual returns over long periods (10+ years). However, past performance doesn't guarantee future returns.
How does inflation affect SIP returns?
Inflation reduces the purchasing power of your money. A Rs.1 crore corpus today may only be worth Rs.50 lakhs in real terms after 10 years at 6% inflation. Always consider inflation-adjusted returns for realistic planning.
