SIP in Mutual Funds: Age 40 and want to create Rs 5,00,00,000, Rs 6,00,00,000 and Rs 7,00,00,000 retirement corpuses? Know how much monthly investment you may need

An SIP or systematic investment plan is a way to invest in mutual funds. It enables investors to channelise a fixed amount of money into a mutual fund of choice at regular intervals, say monthly. The money is automatically deducted from your bank account and put in the mutual funds you have bought at the specified interval once you begin an SIP. You will be allotted mutual fund units based on its net asset value (NAV). The NAV is the price at which an investor can purchase or sell mutual fund units. It is updated daily after business hours. Rupee cost averaging allows you to profit from market volatility while SIP keeps your investment amount constant over a longer period.
