FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What return rate should I use for SIP calculations?+

For equity mutual funds, 10-12% p.a. is a reasonable historical average for long-term planning (10+ years). For debt funds, use 6-7%. For ELSS funds, 10-12%. For index funds tracking Nifty 50, 11-13% has been the historical 10-20 year average. Always use conservative estimates for planning.

Is SIP better than lumpsum investing?+

Neither is universally better. SIP benefits from rupee-cost averaging — you buy more units when markets are low. Lumpsum is better if you invest exactly at market bottoms. For most retail investors without market timing skill, SIP reduces risk and removes the need to time the market.

What happens if I miss an SIP?+

Missing one SIP is not catastrophic — you just miss that month's investment. However, consistent SIP without gaps is what creates wealth. Even skipping 2-3 months per year over 15 years can cost 8-10% of final corpus due to missed compounding at key growth points.

What is the minimum SIP amount in India?+

Most mutual funds allow SIP from ₹100 to ₹500 per month. Some ELSS funds start at ₹500/month. Popular platforms like Zerodha Coin, Groww, and Paytm Money allow SIPs from ₹100. Starting small and increasing yearly is better than waiting to have a large amount.
