Why MF SIP?

Invest Mutual Fund SIPs Online

An SIP is a financial planning tool offered by mutual funds that allows you to invest small amounts at regular intervals over a long period. It also allows one to use the power of compounding to generate big returns in a portfolio. 

In the equity market, the general approach to investing is to time the market whereby one tries to buy a stock or an index at a certain level and book profit when it has run up significantly. 

That approach often leads to "common mistakes in asset allocation by common investors, who tend to buy high (caused by exuberance of a bull market) and sell low (due to the hopelessness caused by a bear market) 


An SIP can address this wrong approach to asset allocation by majority investors in a fool-proof way. Common investors should never try to time the market. All they simply need to keep doing is maintain the regular SIP payments in order to completely negate the impact of wrong timing that can hit return on investment 

SIP or no SIP, equity investment will always be considered a game of deep-pocketed people. For the ordinary middle-class Indian, the stock market will perhaps be the last place to make their retirement planning fool-proof. 


Of the many benefits of SIP investing, one is that you can start an SIP by investing as low as Rs 500 a month, which allows even a small investor to build long-term wealth. An SIP can allow investors to invest in a regular and disciplined fashion 


Investors should first chalk out their long-term financial plans to identify how much mutual fund investment one needs to make every month and what should be the debt-equity mix 

The next step is to decide on the right fund house and fund manager. They are the guys who will be looking after your money every single day till you redeem and, therefore, they are like the coach on who you want to entrust your life's savings. 

A lot of time and energy is spent in this process. Once the basic plan is inked, it is really a simple matter of unemotional execution by investing the routine SIP instalments on the scheduled dates 


SIPs are not just about pouring all the money into the equity market. The mark of a great portfolio is distribution of risk and diversification across asset classes. 

One important element in mutual fund investing is the split in asset allocation between equity and debt. This needs to be reviewed every few years to see if the risk profile of the investor has changed and, hence, allocation split needs to be changed 


SIP investing is not about putting in some money and forgetting it, the way Warren Buffett will have you do it. It is more like being a gardener, who looks after his plants almost every day just to ensure weeds are not cropping up. 

Investors will do well to monitor their investments over a medium to long-term and take a course correction if needed 

Investors need to manage their investments at an overall portfolio level instead of approaching them in a piecemeal fashion. SIPs are constituent of such a portfolio and as such require attention from time to time. An investor must, therefore, monitor the performance of an SIP with reference to its benchmark and ascertain the long-term wealth creation potential that it carries

Lump Sum or SIP?

Invest Mutual Fund Online     You have a lump sum in hand and you wish to invest in equity funds. However, you have heard a lot of talk about investing in equity funds through Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) because they help average costs, ensure you do not ill-time the market, and help you invest in small sums, besides giving you many other advantages. So, should you invest the money you have in hand in one go, or let it remain in your bank account and then do an SIP? There is no harm in investing a lump sum amount. For all you know, compounding, over the long term, could work better with lump sum. However, make sure you fulfill all of these three criteria if you want to invest in one go. Else, SIP is the way to go. #1: You invest for the long term According to past data, ideally, if you have a time frame of 12 years or more, you can consider lump sum investing (provided you satisfy the other two conditions that follow). So, what is the sanctity behind 12 years? Is it because only...

Feeder funds are the cheapest way to invest in gold

Buy Gold Mutual Funds Invest Mutual Funds Online Download Tax Saving Mutual Fund Application Forms Call 0 94 8300 8300 (India)   There are four ways to put your money in gold — buying physical gold/jewellery , putting money in gold exchange-traded funds ( ETFs ), investing in a gold savings fund and going for the National Spot Exchange's e-gold. Now, some gold ETFs and e-gold even allow taking physical delivery of gold at the end of investment tenure. That might sound good if you wish to possess physical gold. But, given the firm price of gold today (almost ~31,000 per 10g), it is important that gold is bought through acost-effective avenue. Reason: Investing comes at a price. Add to that, India's gold buying is expected to decline in 2012 and 2013, according to the latest World Gold Council ( WGC )report. WGC Director Vipin Sharma feels gold imports may drop to 800 tonnes from 967 tonnes last year. And the mix between the jeweller...

Mutual Fund Review: Reliance Regular Savings Balanced

Reliance Regular Savings Balanced fund has shown great resilience during market crash After a shaky start, this fund has established itself as a strong contender in this space. In the past three years it has ridden the market well by not only delivering during the market run-ups but also displaying resilience during the crash. In 2008, it witnessed the second lowest fall among its category and last year it was amongst the top three performers with a return of 76 per cent (category average: 61%).   The poor underperformance in 2006 can well be credited to the low equity allocation of the fund, which stood at just over 10 per cent for only four months that year. Though the fund has the leeway to go up to 75 per cent in equity, it has never touched that limit. In fact, it has exceeded 70 per cent in just five months in its entire history. During the crash of 2008, the fund managers had no problem going right down to 54 per cent (equity exposure). Fund managers Omprakash Kukian and A...
