SIP refers to Systematic Investment Plan. SIP is a method of investing a regular amount of money every certain time period, say a month. It is an alternative to investing a large sum of money at once. SIP is a good method of investment, specially for those who do not have a large sum of money to invest at a go or even if they have but they are not able to invest all of them at the same time, due to whatever reasons. It is a good method for those who are working and earn a fixed sum of money every month. Like for example, if a person earns 20,000 rupees a month and his expenses are 10,000, then he can easily invest at least 5,000 a month. Most of the working professionals do not have a large sum of money to invest, so they can go into SIP method and can save quite a lot of money on a recurring basis and also enjoy good returns on his savings. SIP is also preferred by those people who wants a good saving but cannot resist spending money. If their money would directly deduct from the account and go into a plan that has a 3 to 5 year locking period, then there is no chance they can take out money or spend anywhere.

In SIP method, you buy share units every month/quarter based on the share value at that current time. So it balances itself at the end, since we know that the market keeps going up and down every time and your shares will be bought at a time the market is low, as well as at the time the market is high. If the market is too high at a time you want to invest, SIP is the best way to go, since if you invest a large sum at a high price and the market falls, your large sum value will go way down but in SIP, you only purchased a little bit at that high time and once the market falls, you do incur a loss but only on the small sum you invested, all the rest of the investments that will proceed in further months will be bought in a lower market value. So like I said, it averages out at the end.

But remember that SIP does not offer you a very high gain that you can get from a one time investment of a large sum but it is more sort of a very safe play and plus keeps regular disciplined savings. If you have a large sum of money to invest in the market and want a good gain on it then prefer some one time investments of large sums in different sectors of the market, specially at a time when market is going low.

You must be aware that the indian union budget is on July 6. The budget could have a good impact on the Indian market. We could see quite some rise or fall after the budget. The sectors that are most likely to get the benefit will rise up sharply. The infrastructure sector is most likely to get a boost after the budget and so the companies in this sectior would do good in the coming months. I would suggest investing into Unitech, IVRCL, DLF etc companies as they are most likely to go higher up in the coming days. They have also performed pretty well in the last 6 months, IVRCL doing the best with a whooping 321% return. So if you had invested 1 lakh in IVRCL 6 months back, you would have got back around 3 lakh 21 thousand now.That is quite a heavy return in just 6 months although we know that most of the companies have performed well, but 321% still beats most of them.  Reliance Infrastructure has also performed pretty well and that might continue to perform good now that we know infrastructure is to get some boost in our budget. I would suggest you to buy some stocks in these sector immediately to reap the benefits rather wait for the budget as it is not that useful once the stocks have already risen.

There could also be a benefit in the education and power sector. Rural and Export areas are expected to get some benefits as well. So you might want to eye on those sectors also. Some of the big players are investing into all sectors to minimise the risk, that could also serve well. Now lets sit back and hope that the budget serves in favour of us.

Hey and welcome to mayankrocks.com again!

I know it is stupid that I had to fresh start everything again, but I had no option left. I had to make necessary changes on the server for which I reloaded OS, and I had forgotten that mayankrocks.com is functioning under a different account and when I took the main account backup, there was no backup done for this blog. Due to this, I lost almost everything I had on this blog. Well now it is time to start fresh again. Hopefully I will be updating the blog regularly and wont slack. I will be looking forward to share quite a bit of information with you all. My focus would be on business, marketing, finance, investment and money related topics. All the topics are interrelated and it would be fun to write about it.
