Unpacking the best way to invest your savings for that dream home down payment in India. Avoid common mistakes!
Tempted to invest all at once? While exciting, lumpsum investments carry high market timing risk, especially for your crucial home down payment.
Short-term (1-2 yrs)? Preserve capital (FDs, debt). Medium (3-5 yrs)? Hybrid funds. Long (5+ yrs)? Equity can work wonders.
Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) offer rupee cost averaging, discipline, and the magic of compounding. Ideal for consistent wealth building.
Have a bonus? Use a Systematic Transfer Plan (STP). Park in a safe fund, then systematically move to equity. A 'super-SIP' approach!
Don't keep all in FDs, avoid market timing, set clear goals, know your risk tolerance, and review regularly. Smart moves save big!
