Here, we’ll explore investment in SIP and how you can add to your celebrations through SIP investment in Diwali festival.

 

Strategies to build wealth

 

Why are SIP investments considered ideal?

SIPs are considered ideal as they provide a relatively stable ground compared to equity trading. Further, they provide an opportunity to earn large sums of money simply through interest when invested over the long term. All SIPs thrive on two concepts, i.e., rupee cost averaging and compounding. The following is a brief explanation for both:

 

• 
  Rupee cost averaging: When buying a mutual fund at a high price, you get fewer units for that certain price. When the price reduces, you get more units for the same price in subsequent cycles. This averages out the ultimate mutual fund value.

• 
  Compounding: The money invested earns you returns over time. The interest thus earned is reinvested. Therefore, your interest also generates interest. The final amount that is received on maturity is determined by two things: the return accrued at the end of investment tenure and the period of investment.

Suggestions for choosing a suitable SIP investment

Selecting the appropriate SIP investment is essential to reaching your financial objectives. The following suggestions will help you with your investment:

 

• 
  Establish financial objectives: Decide your goals with your investments, such as accumulating a retirement corpus, purchasing a house, or paying for your child’s education.

• 
  Determine risk tolerance: Identify your comfort zone in the market. This will help you determine your risk tolerance. Choose debt or hybrid funds if you’re risk-averse; otherwise, you can opt for equity funds. You can consider investing in Bajaj Finserv Flexi Cap Fund if you wish to opt for an equity fund. On the other hand, Bajaj Finserv Liquid Fund can be a considered if you prefer debt fund.

• 
  Examine investment horizons: Keep your investment timeline at the core when making investment decisions. Your investment strategy can change based on your choice between long-term and short-term SIP investments.

• 
  Portfolio diversification: Spread your investments across several asset classes, such as debt, equity, and gold, to diversify your portfolio and reduce risk.

It is always recommended to take advice from a financial consultant before making any investment decisions. They will help you understand all elements in detail and make an appropriate decision possible. Further, discipline is highly important when investing in SIPs.
