If you are thinking of investing in a systematic investment plan (SIP), then this news is very important for you. Kotak Mahindra Asset Management Company Limited (KMAMC) has announced to launch a new initiative ‘Chhoti SIP’.
Now new investors can start SIP from only ₹ 250 per month. This Kotak will be available in all eligible schemes of Mahindra Mutual Fund and will give big savings opportunities for small investors.
This step has become even more important under the recently launched ‘Small Ticket SIP’ initiative by SEBI and AMFI.
What did MD Nilesh Shah of Kotak Mahindra AMC say?
Nilesh Shah, Managing Director of Kotak Mahindra Asset Management Company Limited, told that,
“Out of India’s 140 million population, only 5.4 crore people are investing in mutual funds. It is clear that there is a great potential to adopt mutual funds in the country. Small SIPs can increase the figure rapidly.”
Features of Small SIP:
Minimum investment amount: ₹ 250 per month
Eligibility: Investors starting SIP only for the first time
Investment Mode: only growth option
Commitment: Minimum 60 monthly installments
Payment option: only Nach or UPI Auto-Pay
This can be a great opportunity for those starting investing with a small amount.
SIP of ₹ 250 started earlier too!
Earlier in February 2024, SBI Mutual Fund launched SIP scheme with ₹ 250 monthly investment.
