Managing SIPs

 How to Manage SIPs

The Systematic Investment Plan is a powerful tool to create long-term wealth by starting with as little as `500. To build a sustainable corpus, one should top up these investments as income rises. However, investors must not compromise their current cash needs with too restrictive SIP commitments.

Mutual funds have tailor-made SIPs to help investors efficiently manage them.The facilities allow investors to alter SIPs according to different life situations.

Registration

An enrolment form must be filled up to register for an SIP. The scheme, SIP date, amount, start date and frequency must be added. It is a good idea to opt for the "perpetual" option so that the SIP does not stop midway. If this option is not available, a date long enough to complete the goal may be chosen.

Step up SIP

As and when incomes rise, a step up SIP can be used to increase the SIP amount.The SIP instalment will increase at predetermined intervals to match the rise in income level of the investor. A step up SIP form needs to be filled at the time of SIP registration to use this facility. This facility is also known as top up SIP.

Pause SIP

In a cash crunch, one may not want to completely stop SIPs but put them on hold for a while till the situation eases. A pause SIP form may be used to do this. The period for pausing the SIP can be mentioned in the form. A bank mandate also needs to be filled and submitted.

Flexi SIP

Many fund houses provide flexible SIP options that allow changes in SIP amounts based on occurrence of certain events or triggers. These triggers may be based on certain pre-determined formula (eg. index level or target amount). Flexi SIP forms need to be filled with minimum and maximum SIP instalment that can be opted.


Registering an auto debit mandate ensures continuity of SIP instalments.

It is important to read instructions applicable to each of these facilities before enrolment.

Birla SunLife Manufacturing Equity Fund

The Make in India program was launched by Prime Minister Naredra Modi in September 2014 as part of a wider set of nation-building initiatives. It was devised to transform India into a global design and manufacturing hub. The primary motive of the campaign is to encourage multinational as well domestic companies to manufacture their products in India. This would create more job opportunities, bring high-quality standards and attract capital along with technological investment to bring more foreign direct investment (FDI) in the country.   Why India as the next manufacturing destination?   The rising demand in India along with the multinational's desire to diversify their production to include low-cost plants in countries other than China, can help India's manufacturing sector to grow and create millions of jobs.

Total Returns Index brings out real Equity Funds Performers

From February, equity mutual funds have to change their benchmarks to account for dividend payments. Until now, funds used price-based benchmarks alone. TRI or total return indices assume that dividend payouts are reinvested back into the index. What this does is lift the overall index returns, because dividends get compounded. For example, the Sensex TRI index will consider dividend payouts of its constituent companies while the Nifty50 TRI index will consider dividends of its constituents. Using TRI indices as benchmarks comes on the argument that an equity funds earn dividends on the stocks in its portfolio, which they use to buy more stocks. Therefore, using an index that also considers dividend reinvestment would be a more appropriate benchmark. Shrinking outperformance With a stiffer benchmark, it is obvious that the margin by which an equity fund outperforms the benchmark would shrink. Rolling one-year returns from 2013 onwards, the average margin by which largecap funds out...
