ZFunds, the mutual fund distribution platform on Tuesday declared the starting of Rs. 100 daily mutual fund SIP, which is conceptualised explicitly for individuals living in rural regions and small towns.
ZFunds in a statement said that in collaboration with ICICI Prudential Mutual Fund, HDFC Mutual Fund, and Tata Mutual Fund, the initiative was launched. Additionally, the organisation is in coversation with a few other fund houses to advance its product suite.
Through this contribution, ZFunds plans to address the need gap existing in tier 2, tier 3 and tier 4 urban areas where individuals procure consistently as opposed to having a monthly pay.
The venture sum as low as Rs. 100 will help daily earners and entrepreneurs to begin their speculation venture from their everyday pay, ZFunds said.
Withing a limited time period, ZFunds has enlisted in excess of 3,000 every day systematic investment plans (SIPs) on its foundation and means to arrive at 1 lakh daily SIPs by end of FY23.
In the year 2021, ZFunds enlisted a monthly SIP book of Rs. 4 crore and assets under management (AUM) in overabundance of Rs. 350 crore.
Manish Kothari, Co-founder and CEO at ZFunds said that it is a path breaking concept to make mutual funds accessible for the people of Bharat. The initial concept of SIP was thought out keeping salaried people in mind who get paid once a month. While the option of daily, weekly, and fortnightly SIPs does exist, the reality is not many people opt for it.
This is even though 54 per cent of non-metro India is self-employed and usually get paid on a daily basis and typically prefer to invest via chit funds. We have introduced Rs.100 daily SIP so that real financial inclusion can take place in tier-2, tier-3 cities and rural India, he added.
