WHERE to invest via SIPs?

NO RESTRICTION OF ANY ASSET CLASS
for commencing a SIP
MORE POPULAR FOR EQUITY as an asset class because
The asset class is relatively more volatile and
SIPs help to even out volatility by purchases made across market cycles

EQUITY SIPs ideally should be long term

of 5 years and above
SIPs IN FIXED INCOME
may be for short to medium term
