A SIP is a popular method for investing in mutual funds. It allows one  to invest a fixed amount of money regularly, like monthly or quarterly, instead of requiring a large lump sum investment upfront. SIPs can be started for as little as Rs. 500 per month.

The Association of Mutual Funds in India (AMFI) is a non-profit organization that serves as the regulatory body for the mutual fund industry in India. AMFI provides investor education and awareness programs to help people understand mutual funds and SIPs.
