How do You Maximize Your Returns from a Mutual Fund SIP?

How do You Maximize Your Returns from a Mutual Fund SIP?

by Holistic Leave a Comment | Filed Under: Mutual Funds

Listen to this article



Everybody would have heard the story of the crow and pebbles.

How to quench his thirst he dropped a pebble into the pot. He didn’t give up and continued doing so.

💡The Result: water level rose, came to brim, he drank and flew away reaping the benefits!

This is how compounding in SIP works!

Staying invested irrespective of market fluctuations, dropping the pebbles (SIP) every month, helps in reaping the benefits later!

For quite a long time, mutual funds have been offering people numerous advantages, which include providing investors with broad diversification, a relatively low cost of investment, professional management, and day-to-day cash conversions.

Systematic Investment Plan

If you decide to set aside a portion of your earnings for a bright future of you and your loved ones, what better option than a Mutual Fund SIP or a systematic investment plan can one think of?

Mutual Fund SIP is an investment scheme to help you save regularly in small portions. The amount that you keep aside as SIP, thereby invests as an MF investment.

There are a few tips and guidelines, which one must remember and take care of, in order to maximize returns from his/her SIP in mutual funds.

Mutual Fund SIP Calculator

You can use the calculator, shown below, to find your estimated Mutual Fund Returns.

In this calculator, you can choose the various Mutual Fund SIP related options given below, that suits your investment purpose.

  • Choose your desired Mutual Fund SIP amount
  • Choose your Mutual Fund SIP Frequency
  • Choose your duration for Mutual Fund SIP payments; and, you will get your estimated Mutual Fund returns.

Invest over the entire life cycle

The common tendency of people starting with an SIP in a mutual fund, and then terminating the same once the market is on the drop, beats the whole purpose of investing through the Mutual Fund SIPs.

The method of staying invested over the whole cycle is a good approach as it allows you to take advantage of lower prices, as well as enables you to average out the purchase cost over time.

Therefore, by exiting during the market decline, one abandons his chance of buying more units at low prices that can produce good returns, in case the market again takes a turn.

One way to benefit from the Mutual Fund SIP is to stay invested in it for the long term, almost through the whole market cycle.

Link your Mutual Fund SIP to some financial goals

🦍🌴🏃🏻‍♂️

Did you know, somewhere in the evolution of human kind, our arms were longer than legs ▶️ then arm to leg ratio became 1:1 ▶️ and with course of usage, the arms length went down and now our legs are longer than our arms.

Fascinating to see how need and requirement decide the ratio.

In personal finance and investments we hear a lot about weightage, sizing, overweight, underweight etc. again depending on the need, view, model. So do your Mutual Fund SIP in accordance with your personalised financial plan.

Like any investment, you should link your Mutual Fund SIP with some financial goal . Not keeping an eye on your financial goals will let you invest haphazardly and even fall short of your requirements.

List your financial goals in the order of priority, fix a period to achieve the same, and finally measure each financial goal in terms of the funds required.

By doing this, you can make your Mutual Fund SIP investments correspond to each financial goal, depending on the timelines and the risks involved.

The greater benefit involved here is reducing the risks of timing the markets. As you stagger and invest over a period of time, you can reduce the impact of adverse market movements.

Escalate Your annual commitment in SIP

Although Mutual Fund SIPs allow you to invest a fixed sum monthly, that does not mean that you have to stick to the same amount for the whole tenure.

Your savings automatically go up, as your income rises. Therefore, the SIP amount should also keep raising in the same proportion.

Always remember that your fund requirement increases over the years, due to inflation. Thus, to have an approach where you hike or step-up your monthly commitment every year, will ensure that you are on pace with the lifestyle changes and inflation. _

You need not allocate the extra savings to an additional Mutual Fund SIP scheme; rather can proceed with the existing one.

Mutual Fund SIP & A Childhood Fable:

The Tortoise and the Hare!

A childhood fable of a race between a tortoise and a hare. Two unequal partners, hence the winner, was assumed to be the hare due to its speed.

The winner, however, was the tortoise. Though slow, it’s consistent and steady nature helped it win.

This is how SIPs in Mutual Funds work!

Investing like a 🐢, without losing hope, market fluctuations and biases, not only helps in winning the race (reaching financial goals) but also helps in beating inflation.

The 🐇 also has an important investing lesson – SIP top-up. How? It’s simple! Just as the rabbit takes leaps to cover larger distances, SIP top-ups allow you to contribute additional funds to your existing SIP investments. By injecting extra capital at regular intervals, you’ll witness the compounding effect, multiplying your wealth and propelling you closer to your financial aspirations

Use also Mutual Fund STP and Mutual Fund SWP

You need to have enough balance in your bank account to ensure the fund availability for the Mutual Fund SIP. However, it is also true that maintaining a big balance is not always prudent, as that does not fetch high returns.

Alternatively, you can put a lump sum in the liquid fund and give the necessary instructions, in order to transfer a fixed sum to your chosen equity fund over regular periods. This may prove to be a better option, as the liquid funds fetch a better option, compared to a bank account.

When you are nearing your financial goal, you can choose an SWP (systematic withdrawal plan). This lets you withdraw money at regular intervals over a period, thereby protecting your gains and ensuring your financial goal realization.

In case, you do want to withdraw to safeguard agains market crash when nearing a financial goal, you can also opt for a systematic transfer plan (STP), where your money gradually moves from the unstable asset class to a more stable one.

Working upon the above-mentioned guidelines, will surely take you forward towards increasing your SIP returns in a Mutual Fund Investment.

Working with holistic investment planners was a really wonderful experience for me. For me the entire team had been very supportive in all ways. Their working strategy is well planned and methodical. They always keep me informed and updated about my investments, so that i can take informed decisions. The team first helps us understand the basics of investments, then they collect data, work with the data and then provide investments solutions according to our goals which i find it the best. Good luck to the entire team.

For the past year, I have been interacting with Holistic Investment. I frequently read Nanayam Vikatan, which is a publication owned by the Vikatan family, and I was impressed by their financial advice. My brother also suggested holistic investing, and he also got excellent financial advice. Holistic Investment follows a methodical approach that I really liked because they first fully understand our financial situation "As Is," which includes "Assets" and "Liabilities," as well as our short-, mid-, and long-term goals, on the basis of which they provide a detailed plan on how to achieve our goals for which they are recommending various investment options. Even in the investment advice, why do they suggest particular mutual funds and what is the justification behind it, which adds transparency to the client. One essential factor is that they are always available. Even if I needed to make some urgent financial decisions, they were very helpful and kind to answer my questions via phone calls, WhatsApp messages, and emails. I was very happy with their service. Periodic reviews are also crucial, even though I have forgotten that they occur once every three months, and I also intend to renew this year.
