Systematic Investment Planning contd.

Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) – A Step By Step approach to beat inflationExperience may have taught you that tasks done in a planned, disciplined and systematic manner havealways delivered the best results in the long term.

Wealth creation requires pretty much the same principle…..It’s all about Systematic Investment Planningand maintaining that disciplined approach till you achieve your desired result.

You can become a Crorepati – Only if You Start Now!Use the Power of Compounding to your advantage. If you save a small sum of money regularly in equitymutual funds, you can make your money work with greater power and that will have a significant impacton your wealth accumulation.That’s the underlying principle of the Power of Compounding. But you need to start now.

Even a seemingly small 5 year delay can cost you the “Crorepati” tag. Let us illustrate how;

The illustration above is merely indicative in nature and does not in any manner indicate the performance of any of the schemes of DSP BlackRock Mutual Fund. Please read the SID and SAI Carefully before investing.

• Starting a SIP in an equity mutual fund allows you to• take advantage of investing in equities• And also seek diversification.• In addition, it minimizes the effects of investing in volatile markets.• You don’t even have to worry about when and where to invest or even track daily market movements,

as there is a professional fund manager to take care of your investments.• Systematic investing significantly reduces the risks attached to market timing.

Systematic Investment Planning contd.

Step 3: Decide the Investment period i.e. for how long do you wish to invest on a regular basis. Werecommend that for an investor to benefit from the “Power of Compounding” you need to select a longertime period. For e.g. if you are starting a SIP to build a retirement corpus, you should select a periodwhich is equal to the number of years that are left before you retire.

Step 4: Decide on the frequency i.e. Do you wish to opt for a monthly or quarterly SIP option? – Werecommend a monthly option.

How Does Systematic Investment work in a mutual fund?As if the Power of Compounding wasn’t enough, investing with the help of SIPs also offers you theadditional benefit of Rupee Cost Averaging. Simply put- You buy more units at lower prices, and less unitsat higher prices, without having to track the market every day.

This is how it works; the amount you invest gets converted into units, depending on the Net Asset Value(NAV) of the scheme you have invested in. Have a look at the table below. It illustrates how over a periodof one year if you regularly invest Rs 1000 per month than depending upon the prevailing NAV at the timeof purchasing the units in the fund you will buy more units when the NAV is low and less units when theNAV is high. But when you look at the average NAV over one year and compare the same with the averagecost that you pay per unit than the average cost per unit that you have paid is lower. This is the benefit ofRupee Cost Averaging.

Time (Months) Amount invested NAV per Unit (Rs) Units purchased

1 1,000 23 43

2 1,000 21 48

3 1,000 22 45

4 1,000 19 53

5 1,000 16 63

6 1,000 17 59

7 1,000 17 59

8 1,000 20 50

9 1,000 21 48

10 1,000 19 53

11 1,000 25 40

12 1,000 24 42

Total 12,000 601

Average NAV per Unit over 12 months =

(23+21+22+!9+16+17+17+20+21+19+25+24)/12

or Rs 20.34

Average Cost per Unit over 12 months =

12,000/601

or Rs 19.96

How Are Equity Funds Managed contd.

The units get accumulated over a period of time. You can stay invested till the time you wish and redeemyour units when you wish to exit from the scheme. The units are redeemed at the Applicable (NAV) andyou get back your money with returns.

You Can Also Opt for A Systematic Transfer Plan - Make a lump sum investment in one of our incomefunds along with instructions to transfer a fixed sum on a specific date in an equity scheme of your choice.

All it requires is a one time instruction on your part which will be followed till such a time that the lumpsum investment in the income scheme has been depleted or you have instructed us to switch yourinvestments into another equity scheme within our basket of schemes.

We hope that this has helped you understand the benefits of regular investing combined with the power ofcompounding and convinced you to take your first steps to wealth creation over the long term by starting aSystematic Investment Plan in a mutual fund scheme of your choice.
