1. What if the market heads for a downturn during my SIP investment?
Don’t worry! SIPs help you average out your investment cost, so market events are less impactful over the long term.
2. Can I invest in multiple SIPs simultaneously?
Absolutely! The more the merrier, diversifying your money across various funds would allow you to increase your returns by a significant margin.
3. How much should I invest in a SIP for 5 years?
Start with an amount you can comfortably afford and gradually increase your investment as your income grows. Most funds allow you to start even with Rs. 500 per month as a starting investment.
4. How often should I review my SIP investments?
It’s a good practice to review your investments at least once a year, and make alterations to your portfolio based on the economic conditions.
5. Can I withdraw my SIP investment before 5 years?
You can withdraw your investment at any time, but you may have to pay an exit load or lose some potential returns.
