Why invest in SIP? Know the benefits
1- The first advantage of SIP is that there is flexibility in investing through SIP regarding the duration and amount of investment. That is, you can choose the option of monthly, quarterly or half yearly investment period as per your convenience. Apart from this, you can stop it and withdraw money from your SIP whenever you need.
2- When you invest periodically you get the benefit of rupee cost averaging. That is, if the market is falling and you have invested money then you will be allotted more units and if the market is rising then the number of units allotted will be less. Your expenses remain average even in case of market fluctuations. This means that you will not suffer losses even if the market falls. In such a situation, when the market rises, you get a chance to get better returns on your average investment.
3- The benefit of compounding in SIP is tremendous. Therefore, SIP should be done for a long time, the longer it is, the greater will be the benefit of compounding. Under compounding, you do not get returns only on the amount you invest. In fact, you also get returns on earlier returns.
4- Through SIP, you learn to save for a fixed time i.e. whatever money you have to invest monthly, quarterly or half yearly, you spend the rest of the money only after saving that amount. This way you will get into the habit of disciplined investing.
