Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is a kind of investment scheme offered by mutual fund companies. Using SIP one can invest small amount peridically (weekly, monthly, quaterly) into a selected mutual fund. For retail investors, SIP offers a well disciplined and passive approach to investing, to create wealth in long term (using the power of compounding). Since, the amount is invested on regular intervals (usually on monthly basis), it also reduces the impact of market volatility.
This calculator helps you calculate the wealth gain and expected returns for your monthly SIP investment. You get a rough estimate on the maturity amount for any monthly SIP, based on a projected annual return rate.
