Mutual fund SIPs (Systematic Investment Plans) show no signs of slowing down, as recent data indicates that volumes hit an all-time high in September. Retail investors view SIPs as an easy and convenient way to build wealth, contributing to record-high inflows month after month.
Retail investors often prefer SIPs over lump-sum investments because this method allows them to invest a fixed amount at regular intervals, such as monthly. They can start with as little as Rs 250 per month. This approach is similar to a recurring deposit, where investors save a small amount each month.
Interestingly, SIPs have gained such popularity that some mutual fund houses are now introducing micro SIPs at just Rs 250 a month to expand their reach. Additionally, LIC MF recently announced a reduction in the minimum limit for daily SIPs from Rs 300 to Rs 100.
