What is SIP?

Quick Answer

Systematic Investment Plan — a method of investing a fixed amount in a MF scheme at regular intervals.

Understanding SIP

With a SIP, a fixed amount is automatically deducted from the investor's bank account on a set date each month and invested in the chosen mutual fund scheme at the prevailing NAV.

SIPs average out the cost of investment over time (rupee cost averaging), reducing the impact of market volatility compared to lump sum investing.

For IFAs, SIP books represent a predictable, recurring AUM base that grows the trail commission income over time.

“For Indian IFAs, a clear understanding of sipis essential to managing a compliant and profitable advisory practice.”
