Past performance may or may not be sustained in future. IDCW@ are assumed to be reinvested and bonus is adjusted. Load is not taken into consideration. To illustrate the advantages of SIP investment, this is how your investment would have grown if you had invested say ₹10,000 systematically on the first business Day of every month over a period of time. Returns are calculated by using XIRR approach. XIRR helps in calculating return on investment given an initial and final value and a series of cash inflows and outflows with the correct allowance for the time impact of the transactions.
