What is Step Up SIP?

A Step Up SIP (also called Top Up SIP) is a type of Systematic Investment Plan where you increase your monthly investment by a fixed percentage every year. If you invest ₹10,000/month and set a 10% annual step-up, you invest ₹11,000 in Year 2, ₹12,100 in Year 3, and so on.

Why it works: Most Indians get a salary hike of 8–15% every year. By channeling even a part of that hike into investments, you prevent lifestyle inflation from consuming your entire income growth.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Step Up SIP?
Step-Up SIP increases your monthly investment by a fixed percentage every year (typically 10%). Example: start with ₹5,000/month, increase 10% yearly — Year 2 = ₹5,500, Year 3 = ₹6,050, etc. This aligns with salary hikes and builds significantly more wealth than flat SIP.
How much more does Step Up SIP give vs regular SIP?
At 12% return for 20 years: Regular SIP ₹10,000/month = ₹99.9L. Step-Up SIP starting ₹10,000 with 10% annual increase = ₹1.99 crore. Step-Up SIP gives nearly DOUBLE the corpus for the same starting amount. The extra investment comes from annual increments anyway.
