Lumpsum vs SIP: Which is Better?
A lumpsum investment is a one-time payment into a financial instrument. It is ideal when you have a large amount of idle cash, such as a bonus or proceeds from a property sale.
While SIPs help with rupee-cost averaging, lumpsum investments can generate higher returns if the market is at a low point when you invest. Use this calculator to see how your wealth grows over time.
