ETMarkets Smart Talk| A ₹25,000 monthly SIP can grow to ₹2.17 crore in 15 years—with a 10% annual step-up: Jeet Marwadi

Jeet Marwadi, founder of 1 Finance, argues that a disciplined investment strategy is most effective when paired with sound financial management. He suggests that investors should first optimise their loan structures, insurance coverage, and daily expenses before focusing on stock selection. By tightening these areas, investors can free up more capital for their investments, thereby accelerating their wealth creation.
Marwadi highlights the power of a Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) with a step-up. This means increasing your monthly contribution by a fixed percentage each year. For example, a modest monthly SIP can grow significantly over 15 years, potentially reaching a substantial corpus. This approach helps investors beat inflation and build a larger retirement fund.
Investors should view financial planning as a continuous process rather than a one-time task. Seeking professional advice early in your career can help you set the right foundation. The key takeaway is to focus on both investment returns and prudent money management to achieve long-term financial security.
