What are SIPs?

SIP stands for Systematic Investment Plan. SIP is one of the best ways of investing your money, where a small amount of money is invested over regular intervals of time and this investment is chanelled in the stock market and generates good returns over time. SIPs are usually considered to be an excellent way to spend money since the investment is divided out over time, unlike a lump sum investment which takes place all at once. SIP's are very widely used for investing and for meeting financial goals for individuals over time. SIP is used in Mutual Funds also for an easy way to inculcate the habit of saving money.
