If you know which scheme you are interested in, you can directly pick your investment type with the MF Scanner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Invest via lump sum or SIPs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now select a hassle-free mode of investing in your MF scheme. You can also set up an auto-pay feature that automatically debits the prescribed amount from your account. Make automatic payments through NACH mandates, eNACH, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MF schemes help you build a diversified portfolio with monthly investments as low as Rs. 500 through a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tatacapitalmoneyfy.com\/systematic-investment-plan\">Systematic Investment Plan (SIP)<\/a> of your choice. You can also invest with a lump sum amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, with SIPs, you can lower the overall cost of your investment while earning returns through the power of compounding. Besides, you can use a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tatacapitalmoneyfy.com\/sip-calculator\">SIP calculator<\/a> to calculate returns on your investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Start a SIP<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting a systematic investment plan is easy. If you use Tata Capital&#8217;s Moneyfy app, once you log on using your MPIN, complete your KYC, choose a fund, you can select an amount and day of the month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, the chosen amount is invested in your MF scheme. The date of the month refers to the day every month the SIP amount would get deducted from your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While you can&#8217;t increase or decrease the amount in an ongoing SIP, you can stop your current SIP to start a new one. Moreover, you can start multiple systematic investment plans in the same mutual fund scheme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#FF0000\"><strong>Additional Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tatacapital.com\/blog\/investments\/importance-of-mutual-funds\/\">Importance of Mutual Funds<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Over to you<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So you see, investing in an MF scheme is easy!
