Stock SIP (Systematic Investment Plan in Stocks) is a feature that allows users to automatically invest a fixed amount in their chosen stock(s) at regular intervals (daily, weekly, or monthly), like a mutual fund SIP but directly in equities.
Investing in equities often feels risky and confusing for beginners. With Stock SIP, users can build their portfolio gradually by investing small amounts over time — reducing market timing worries and bringing discipline into stock investing.
Let’s understand the differences between Mutual Fund SIP and Stock SIP
In a Mutual Fund SIP, you invest in a basket of stocks managed by a fund house. In a Stock SIP, you directly own shares of the company you choose.
Mutual Fund SIP | Stock SIP |
It provides diversification and professional management. | It allows direct, controlled investment in individual stocks, and you must build your own diversified portfolio |
It is having lower risk due to diversification and professional management | It is having higher risk as your returns are tied to the performance and stocks are chosen based on individual interests |
Now, let’s understand why the Stock SIP is not everyone’s favourite. Because it has a higher risk, constant monitoring and individual stock selection may not always be successful. On the other hand, Mutual Fund SIPs provide managed risk, diversification, and ease of use, making them ideal for those seeking a more seamless investing experience.
You can choose to invest in SIP in two ways: First, through ‘Quantity’, and other one through ‘Amount’. If you choose to invest via ‘Quantity’, money will be deducted from your Angel One trading account, and if you choose to invest via ‘Amount’, it will be deducted from your registered bank account.
