SIP
A systematic Investment Plan, also known as a SIP, allows you to invest a small sum in your chosen mutual fund scheme at pre-determined intervals. You can invest in Sip with a lump sum, and the amount in a SIP can be as low as RS. 500 per installment in an equity fund. Equity investment via SIP is a convenient, cost-effective, and simple way to accumulate wealth over time. SIPs use the rupee cost averaging principle to normalise the cost of long-term investing.
Using an example to explain

Total Investment: Rs 35,000
Total number of shares bought: 487.2
Average price per share: Rs 71.83
SWP
A systematic withdrawal Plan, also known as a SWP, allows an investor to withdraw funds from an investment on a set schedule. The withdrawal of mutual fund units from his mutual fund scheme can be either fixed or variable. The task can be scheduled every month, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually, depending on the investor's goals and needs. Customizations in systematic withdrawal plans allow you to withdraw only the capital gains on your investment or a set amount. SWP plans are typically used in retirement, where retirees want a consistent, regular income for a long period of time to meet their financial needs.

Benefits of SWP

• Source of secondary income
• Keep you capital invested and providing gains to you
• Helps to keep you in line with financial obligations
