Why You Should Begin Your Tax Savings For 2017-18 Right Now!
Don’t let last-minute tax-saving rush lead to poor financial decisions! Instead of locking money in low-return instruments, start an SIP in an ELSS fund.

Mutual Fund Myth-busting: Are GILT Funds Risk Free?
GILT funds, often seen as low-risk investments due to their reliance on government securities, are actually more volatile than many investors realize. In this article, we’ll explore the hidden risks of GILT funds, including how interest rate fluctuations and the long-term maturity of government bonds can lead to sharp price movements. While they can provide impressive returns in certain conditions, they are not risk-free. If you’re considering investing in GILT funds, it's important to consult a financial advisor and understand how market dynamics can affect your returns, especially in the short term.
Beware of The Sunk Cost Bias
The Sunk Cost Bias traps investors into holding onto losing investments just because they’ve already committed time and money. This mental pitfall leads to poor financial decisions, like averaging down a failing stock or refusing to cut losses. The solution? Evaluate your investments with a fresh perspective, challenge your assumptions, and exit when the facts change—just as Keynes wisely advised!

Rupee Falling in 2025? Here’s How to Protect and Grow Your Investments!
Imagine you had been saving to buy the new iPhone. A few months ago, the price was Rs.80,000, but now, since the rupee has fallen against the dollar, the price has soared to Rs.85,000. You’re paying more for the same product simply because the rupee has depreciated relative to the dollar. This is exactly what happens when the rupee weakens—it makes everything we import (such as fuel, electronics, and raw materials) costlier.
The Impact of Inflation on Your Financial Goals
Inflation is the unknown devil that keeps devaluing your savings. We hear about inflation rates in the news, but it’s easy to overlook their significance. While we may notice rising prices in our day-to-day purchases, we often fail to consider how inflation impacts our long-term financial goals. In this article, we’ll uncover the true impact of inflation on your financial journey and share strategies to help you stay ahead of it.
How Falling Markets Can Benefit Your SIP Plan
Market downturns can trigger anxiety, but for SIP investors, they present a golden opportunity. By consistently investing through volatility, you benefit from rupee cost averaging, accumulating more units at lower prices and enhancing long-term returns. With the power of compounding and a disciplined approach, SIPs turn market dips into wealth-building moments
Should You Continue Your SIP in Small Cap Mutual Funds
Investing in small cap funds requires patience and discipline, especially during market corrections. By staying committed to your SIPs and focusing on long-term goals, you can leverage the power of rupee cost averaging and compounding. Don’t let short-term market noise dictate your strategy—remain focused, stay the course, and trust that your disciplined approach will yield results over time.
Systematic Withdrawal Plans (SWP): A Reliable Way to Generate Regular Income
An SWP allows investors to withdraw a predetermined amount from their mutual fund investments at regular intervals, such as monthly, quarterly or annually. The beauty of SWPs lies in their flexibility—they provide consistent income while allowing the remaining investment to continue growing.
