SIP for Long-Term

Selecting the SIP plan is important when planning for long-term financial goals such as retirement, education, or wealth accumulation. Through an SIP, you invest a fixed amount regularly—monthly or quarterly—into mutual funds, cultivating a habit of disciplined investing while benefiting from market volatility through rupee cost averaging. Among various investment instruments, mutual funds—especially large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap mutual funds—stand out as some of the top SIP options for long-term investing due to their growth potential, fund management strategies, and historical performance. Know about the following mutual funds in each category to choose the most suitable SIP-based long-term investment plan.
