Benefits of Investing in SIP

Some of the major advantages of investing in a SIP are as follows:

Rupee Cost Averaging

Most investors are skeptical about the best time to invest in the market. They are worried about the volatile markets. But, rupee cost averaging breaks all the worries. Since you become a regular investor with a SIP, your money fetches more units when the price of shares is low and lesser when the price is high. During the volatile cycle, it may allow you to achieve a lower average cost per unit. Thus, the positives of investing through a SIP becomes quite evident in the times of market fluctuations.

Power of Compounding
