What Is SIP?

Small saving to make a bigger pot of money, is the essence of SIP. Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is simply investing a small and fixed amount of money regularly, every month in a mutual fund scheme of your choice.

“October 2024 has demonstrated remarkable momentum in India’s mutual fund industry. The 44th consecutive month of positive equity inflows since March 2021 underscores the deepening maturity of Indian investors. The industry’s robust growth is reflected in our achieving an all-time high AUM of Rs 67.26 lakh crore, alongside the historic rEaD milestone of retail folios crossing 17.23 ON APP crores,” said Venkat Chalasani, Chief Executive, AMFI.

“The continued surge in SIP accounts, now exceeding 10.12 crore, along with a record monthly SIP contribution of Rs 25,322.74 crore, demonstrates the growing preference for disciplined investing among Indian investors. These milestones reinforce our commitment to making mutual funds the cornerstone of wealth creation for every Indian investor, as we continue to build a more financially inclusive nation,” he added.
