FAQ

Kya main kabhi bhi SIP pause ya stop kar sakta hoon?

Haan. ICICI, HDFC, Axis, Bajaj jaise platforms pe zyada tar SIP registrations mein aap kabhi bhi bina penalty ke pause, stop, increase, ya decrease kar sakte ho. Months baad resume bhi kar sakte ho ya different fund mein switch. Lekin pause karne se goal reach karne ka timeline badh jaata hai.

CAGR kya hai aur ye kyun matter karta hai?

CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) annualized return rate hota hai. Agar aap ₹1,00,000 invest karte ho aur 5 saal mein ₹1,60,000 ho jaaye, toh aapka CAGR 9.8% hai. SIP mein returns monthly compounded maane jaate hain. Actual returns market conditions ke hisaab se vary karte hain — humara calculator sirf estimates ke liye use karo.

SIP ke liye Direct ya Regular Funds use karoon?

Direct funds ke expense ratios (0.5-0.8%) Regular funds (1.5-2%) se kam hote hain. ₹5,000 monthly SIP 20 saal mein, Direct funds ₹10-15 lakhs fees bacha sakte hain! Agar independently invest kar sakte ho, toh Direct choose karo. Decide karne ke liye hamara Direct vs Regular guide use karo.
