Best SIP plans? How to choose them? These are some of the common questions that occur in the mind of investors when thinking of Investing in Mutual Funds through a SIP or Systematic Investment plan.
SIP investment is one of the most disciplined investing options when investing in Mutual Funds. Moreover, the minimum amount of investing in a SIP Mutual Fund is as less as INR 500. This makes investing in Top SIP plans much convenient.
Generally, some of the best SIP plans in India offer good returns when invested for a longer duration. To know how much one can earn by investing a SIP or Systematic Investment Plan, check the sip calculator (also known as SIP return calculator) section below.
A systematic investment plan comes with multiple benefits. Its minimum investment amount INR 500
has not only gained attention most population, but also of many youngsters to begin their investment journey in mutual funds. An investor who wants to invest in a SIP can plan their major Financial goals like- child's education, marriage expenses, purchase of a house/car, etc., in a disciplined manner. One can simply start investing as per their goals (short-term, mid-term and long-term) and attain an increase in wealth over a certain period of time.
SIPs offer major benefits like rupee cost averaging and Power of Compounding. Rupee cost averaging helps an individual to average out the cost of an asset purchase. In a SIP, the purchase of units is done over a long period and these are spread out equally over monthly intervals (usually). Due to the investment being spread out over time, the investment is made into the stock Market at different price points giving the investor the benefit of averaging cost, hence the term rupee cost averaging.
In the case of compound interest, unlike simple interest where you gain interest on only the principal, here the interest amount is added to the principal, and interest is calculated on the new principal (old principal plus gains). This process continues every time. Since the mutual funds in the SIP are in instalments, they are compounded, which adds more to the initially invested sum.

There are various Mutual Funds that allow you to invest through a SIP. But the main problem is selecting the best mutual funds for SIP. Though the best Mutual Funds might vary from person to person, below is a list of some points that investors might consider before choosing a best SIP Mutual Fund.
When it comes to investing, each one of us has a different objective. So before investing in Mutual Funds through a SIP, it is advised to get a clear picture of your investment goals and risk profile. Generally, Equity Mutual Funds are considered to be beneficial for long-term objectives while money market and Debt fund are suitable for short-term objectives.
A large part of the SIP returns depends on the Fund House managing your money on your behalf. If the Fund House fails its objective, you will be the one losing your money. To make sure you have the best SIP plan choose a well-reputed fund house.
One of the basic reasons due to which people invest in Mutual Funds through SIP is to make money. Therefore, it is important to analyse the performance of funds over a period of time to choose the best fund and then invest in the best SIP plans. Typically, for equity Mutual Funds long-term performance is looked at, while for the debt Mutual Funds short to mid-term returns are considered.
Last but not the least, the exit load and the expense ratio incurred if the investment in redeemed before a specified period (usually called the lock-in period).
So, it is advised to choose the best SIP plans considering these parameters in mind. Think before you invest!
For financial planning, SIP calculator or SIP return calculator is one of the best tools.
To monitor how your SIP grows through the power of compounding consider the below example.
Monthly Investment | Time Period of Investment | Total Amount Invested | Final Value @ 14% p.a. |
---|---|---|---|
1,000 | 5 years | 60,000 | 87,200 |
1,000 | 10 years | 1,20,000 | 2,62,091 |
1,000 | 15 years | 1,80,000 | 6,12,853 |
The above table mentions that if you invest INR 1,000 per month in a SIP Mutual Fund, your total investment in 5 years would be INR 60,000 and your SIP returns at an assumed return percentage of 14% p.a. would be INR 87,2001
, respectively. Similarly, in 10 years the total investment would be INR 1,20,000
and the SIP return at the assumed percentage of 14% p.a. would be INR 2,62,091
.
The same way, the investment in 15 years would be INR 1,80,000
and the final value at the return percentage of 14% p.a would be INR 6,12,853
, respectively.
So, by simply investing INR 1,000 in a month, see how your money will grow in the years to come. Consider the above calculations when choosing a best SIP Mutual Fund to invest.
A: SIP or a Systematic Investment Plan is an investment route offered under a mutual fund scheme, where a certain sum of money is invested under the scheme at regular intervals. This installment can be as small as Rs.500.
A: The primary advantage of SIP is that it makes investments more disciplined. It allows the investor to make Financial plan useful and helps develop the investor a habit of investing in the investor.
A: Anyone can invest in SIP. But, you must do your risk analysis, mean how much risk you wish to take. Also, to start, you need PAN details, address proof, and Bank details.
A: To invest in offline mode, you will have to fill-up the application form, submit a cheque for the monthly or quarterly SIP amount, provide a copy of the PAN Card, address proof, and a canceled cheque as proof of your bank details.
A: The ICICI Prudential Technology Fund has shown a return of 11.9% since its launching on 3rd March 2000. Unlike other funds, in the year 2020, it has established a return of 70.6%. Hence, investing in ICICI Prudential Technology Fund has proven worthwhile and has invested in the SIP for five years.
A: The SBI Bluechip Fund Regular Growth has shown a five-year growth rate of 5.29%
, which is relatively high.
A: When you invest in SIP, you should consider the Net Asset Value or the NAV. This is the investment you make for the scheme. You must also check its ratings and its historical performance. It is essential to understand the returns the SIP would produce to ensure that your investment is safe.
A: Yes, KYC is essential even for SIP. As the SIP falls under the mutual fund's scheme, you will have to provide KYC documents to invest in SIP.
A: Yes, some SIPs require minimum investments. For example, the Aditya Birla Sun Life Digital India Fund has a minimum SIP investment requirement of Rs.1000. The SBI Bluechip Fund Regular Growth has a minimum requirement of Rs.5000. Thus, depending on the SIP you are investing in, you will have to increase your investment amount.
