How SIP Can Help You Build a Corpus For Your Child’s Education and Marriage
In India itself, education inflation is about 11-12%, according to the National Sample Survey Office.1 Moreover, with the rupee depreciating over the years, an overseas education may become costlier in the future. Marriage is another important dream that many Indian parents have for their children, with the average wedding costing anywhere between Rs 20 lakh to Rs 50 crore.
By planning your finances carefully, you can fulfil the dream of sending your child to the best college or giving them a dream wedding. If you think that they are too young now and you still have time to plan, remember that the earlier you start, the more you can save. If you have not started yet, it may be prudent to invest in a disciplined manner through SIP.Expected End Value of your Investment With Monthly SIP of Rs. 10,000 | |||||||
