What is SIP?
π SIP (Systematic Investment Plan) means
investing a fixed amount of money regularly (usually every month) in mutual funds.
π§ Simple Example:
Instead of spending βΉ2,000 every month, you decide:
π βI will invest βΉ2,000 every monthβ
That money goes into mutual funds (like funds based on Nifty 50), which invest in the stock market.
π How SIP Works
- You choose an amount (βΉ500 / βΉ1000 / βΉ5000β¦)
- You choose a date (like 10th every month)
- Money auto-debits from your bank
- It gets invested automatically
π No stress, no timing the market
β Importance of SIP

You invest regularly like paying a bill
π This creates a strong saving habit
