The idea
A SIP (Systematic Investment Plan) invests a fixed amount — say ₹2,000 — automatically every month into a mutual fund. You buy more units when prices are low and fewer when high, averaging your cost over time.
Why beginners love it
It removes the stress of timing the market, builds a saving habit, and starts from as little as ₹500 a month. Over long periods, disciplined SIPs have helped investors build meaningful wealth (though returns aren't guaranteed).
Getting started
Set a goal, finish a one-time KYC, pick a fund matched to your risk and timeline, and automate the SIP. Review yearly and step it up as income grows.
