Frequently asked questions
What is a good SIP amount for beginners?
Start with an amount you can continue every month without stress — even ₹500–₹1,000 builds the habit. Increase when cash flow allows.
Are SIP returns guaranteed?
No. Mutual fund SIPs are market-linked. Calculators show illustrative returns based on assumed rates, not promises.
