SIP Introduction

Whichever way you choose to invest your money to create wealth, one thing is for sure, the sooner you start the better off you will be. Once your investment returns start compounding year after year, you will really start to see the effect it has on your wealth creation activities.

Uncertainty is the basic nature of stock markets. Time and again, the markets have proved investors wrong by showing their unpredictable nature. This impact is most crushing on retail investors. Is it possible to ride on the stock market volatility, without getting hurt? Yes, it is! For this two simple principles need to be followed religiously.

1: Stay invested for long term.

2: Adopt a systematic and regular approach towards investment.


SIP in mutual funds is one approach which lets the investors follow the two basic principles of investing at one go.


Benefits of SIP

  • Monthly contribution: Investing at one go proves to be a burden on the pockets of investors. On the other hand, monthly investment in small amounts is more feasible for them. SIP provides this benefit to retail investors, wherein they can invest a part of their monthly savings regularly. The initial investment amount may be as low as Rs.500.


  • Systematic approach: SIP helps in investing consistently in a disciplined manner and further it helps in compounding returns as well.


  • Rupee-cost averaging: Any market witnesses ups and downs over a period. The best investment approach to be followed in such cases is a SIP. Here, irrespective of the NAV movement an investor acquires more units compared to a one time investor. Successively, this means higher gains. The following table illustrates the same.


Month NAV (Rs.) Amount invested in SIP (Rs.) Units allotted Amount invested in lump sum Units allotted in lump sum investment
1 10 5000 500.00 25000 2500
2 8 5000 625.00 - -
3 10 5000 500.00 - -
4 12 5000 416.67 - -
5 10 5000 500.00 - -
Total - 25000 2541.67 25000 2500


 SIP approach lets the investor to buy more units when the prices are low, thereby bringing down the average cost for the investors.

  • Timing the market approach : Consider three cases. Sehwag invests Rs.5,000 at the index level on the first day of every month. Dhoni, being lucky, invests the same amount at the lowest value of the index every month; and Kaif, unfortunately invests the same amount but at the highest level of the index during that month.
Investment made Sehwag (indifferent) Dhoni (most lucky) Kaif (unlucky)
BSE Sensex returns 11.42% 11.34% 9.93%

Note: An investment of Rs.5,000 is made monthly for a period of 5 years (July'12 to June'17). Returns are XIRR of investments.

The returns in the above three cases differ by a very small margin, showing that while investing for long term, it doesn't really matter whether you are investing at market peaks or market lows.

Hence time in the market is more important than timing the market. Investing through SIP frees you from timing the market because over a long horizon, SIP investment evens out the market ups and downs.

Tata Mutual Fund

Being a part of the Tata group, the fund has the backing of a very trusted brand name with strong retail connect. While the current CEO has done an excellent job in leveraging the Tata brand name to AMC's advantage, it is ironic that this was just not capitalised on at the start. Incorporated in 1995, Tata Mutual Fund remained an 'also-ran' fund house for around eight years. Till March 2003, it had a little over Rs 1,000 crore in assets and 19 AMCs were ahead of it. But soon after that the equation changed. It was the fastest growing fund house in 2004 and 2005. During these two years, it aggressively launched six equity funds, two debt funds and one MIP. The fund house as of now stands at No. 8 in terms of asset size. This fund house has a lot to offer by way of choice. And, it also has a number of well performing schemes. Tata Pure Equity, Tata Equity PE and Tata Infrastructure are all good funds. It also has quite a few good debt funds. The funds of Tata AMC are known to...

UTI Mutual Fund

Even though only a few of UTI’s funds are great performers, this public sector fund house has many advantages that its rivals do not. It has a huge base of retail equity investors and a vast distribution network. As a business, it looks stronger than ever, especially in the aftermath of credit crunch. UTI is, by a large margin, the most profitable fund company in the country. This is not surprising, since managing equity funds is more profitable than debt. Its conservative approach and stable parentage is likely to make it look more attractive to investors in times to come. UTI’s big problem is the dragging performance that many of its equity funds suffer from. In recent times, the management has made a concerted effort to improve performance. However, these moves have coincided with a disastrous phase in the stock markets and that has made it impossible to judge whether the overhaul will eventually be a success. UTI’s top performers are a few index funds, some hybrid funds and its inf...

8 Investing Strategy

The stock market ‘meltdown’ witnessed since the start of 2005 (notwithstanding the recent marginal recovery) has once again brought to the forefront an inherent weakness existent in our markets. This is the fact that FIIs, indisputably and almost entirely, dominate the Indian stock market sentiments and consequently the market movements. In this article, we make an attempt to list down a few points that would aid an investor in mitigating the risks and curtailing the losses during times of volatility as large investors (read FIIs) enter and exit stocks. Read on Manage greed/fear: This is an important point, which every investor must keep in mind owing to its great influencing ability in equity investment decisions.

Debt Funds - Check The Expiry Date

This time we give you an insight into something that most debt fund investors would be unaware of, the Average Portfolio Maturity. As we all know, debt funds invest in bonds and securities. These instruments mature over a certain period of time, which is called maturity. The maturity is the length of time till the principal amount is returned to the security-holder or bond-holder. A debt fund invests in a number of such instruments and each of these instruments would be having different maturity times. Hence, the fund calculates a weighted average maturity, which would give a fair idea of the fund's maturity period. For example, if a fund owns three bonds of 2-year (Rs 30,000), 3-year (Rs 10,000) and 5-year (Rs 20,000) maturities, its weighted average maturity would be 3.17 years. What is the big deal about average maturity then, you may ask. Well, knowing a fund's average maturity is important because it tells you how sensitive a fund is to the change in interest rates. It is ...
