What is SIP and How Does It Work?

What is a Systematic Investment Plan (SIP)?

A SIP is a method of investing a fixed amount regularly in a mutual fund. Instead of a large lump sum, you invest small amounts consistently — as low as ₹500 per month.

How SIP Works

Each month, your fixed amount buys units at the current NAV. When the market is high, you get fewer units. When low, more units. Over time, this averages out your cost — called rupee cost averaging.
