Frequently Asked Questions
Your Financial Questions Answered
Navigating the world of investments can bring up many questions. We’re here to help. Our FAQ section provides clear and straightforward answers to the most common questions about our services, mutual funds, and financial planning. We believe that informed clients make the best decisions.
1. What is a Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) and how does it work?
A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is a disciplined way to invest a fixed amount regularly (e.g., monthly or quarterly) into a mutual fund scheme. This approach allows you to invest a small amount over time rather than a large lump sum. It helps in rupee cost averaging and mitigates market volatility.
2. How do you help with retirement planning?
We offer customized retirement planning services tailored to your specific goals and financial situation. We help you determine how much you need to save, select appropriate investment vehicles like mutual funds and insurance, and create a long-term strategy to ensure financial security in your retirement years.
3. Can you explain the difference between a SIP and a lump-sum investment?
A SIP involves investing a fixed amount at regular intervals, which helps average out the cost of your investment over time. A lump-sum investment is a one-time, large investment. While a lump-sum can be beneficial during market dips, a SIP is often a less risky and more disciplined approach, especially for beginners.
4. What is a Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP) and who is it for?
A Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP) allows you to withdraw a fixed sum of money from your mutual fund investments at regular intervals. It is an ideal strategy for those who need a steady, regular monthly income from their investments, such as retirees.
5. What is ELSS and what are its benefits?
ELSS, or Equity Linked Savings Scheme, is a type of mutual fund that primarily invests in the stock market. The main benefit is that your investments are eligible for a tax deduction under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. They also have a short lock-in period of just three years, making them a popular tax-saving option.
6. Do you provide advice on loans against securities (LAS)?
Yes, we provide advisory services for loans against securities (LAS). This allows you to leverage your existing investments to secure a loan without having to sell them, offering a flexible alternative to traditional personal loans. We help you understand the benefits and interest rates of LAS to make an informed decision.
7. How do you ensure my portfolio is performing well?
We regularly monitor and advise on portfolio rebalancing to ensure your investments remain aligned with your risk tolerance and financial goals. Portfolio rebalancing involves adjusting the weightings of your assets to maintain a desired asset allocation, which helps in risk mitigation and long-term performance.
