Here’s how you can earn lakhs by just investing Rs 2,000 per month

The Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) have become popular among people, especially after demonetisation.

SIP can be dubbed as one of the most sought-after options of investing in mutual funds as it allows an investor to invest a certain amount periodically in a mutual fund for a specific period.

Investing in mutual funds through an SIP offers investors better risk-adjusted returns and it has various benefits such as it brings discipline into your investing habits, allows you to decide how much you wish to invest, provides price averaging, takes away the need to time markets, etc.

“SIPs help you by averaging costs and reducing risks. So the longer you stay invested, the higher would be your returns. So remember that your SIP is for a long period, and do not stop your SIP mid-way unless it is due to a break in income,” said Ajit Narasimhan, Category Head – Savings & Investment, BankBazaar.

Although there is no right age to invest in SIPs, but, like any other investment, the sooner you invest, the higher would be your returns.

Moreover, the smaller investment size and the periodicity means that you can begin investing much earlier.
