In 2021, I took my first step into mutual fund investing with a ₹5,000 monthly SIP in Parag Parikh Flexi Cap Fund. Despite market ups and downs, this investment has delivered an XIRR of 20%, proving the power of compounding and long-term investing.
Key Takeaways from My SIP Journey:
Compounding Works Wonders – Small, consistent investments grow significantly over time. Volatility is Temporary – SIPs average out market fluctuations, ensuring steady growth. Long-Term Investing Pays Off – Staying invested beats trying to time the market.
Though markets have seen highs and lows, my SIP strategy has helped me stay disciplined and benefit from market recoveries. This experience has reinforced my belief in starting small, staying consistent, and thinking long-term.
I started from INR 500/month in my first job. Now I invest 150x of that. Principles stay the same. Diversify well, keep a large chunk on index funds, and increase the amount during market declines.
