Setting up Flexi SIP

Flexi SIP allows an investor to change the investment amount� on a monthly basis. An investor could use it to change the amount based on their affordability or they can choose to invest more or less depending on their understanding of market conditions. While setting up a Flexi SIP, an investor will be required to specify a regular amount and a maximum amount of investment per month. The monthly investment can thereafter vary from the minimum required for that mutual fund scheme and the user specified maximum amount. The investor can change the amount on a monthly basis, but is not required to do so. If the investor chooses to not make any changes, the regular amount as specified while set up will be used in a given month.
