Your investment is pooled with others and spread across stocks, bonds, or other assets. You don&#8217;t pick individual companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a Stock SIP on Samco, you choose the stock directly. You decide which company, how many shares per instalment, and how often to invest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The charges are different too. Mutual funds charge an expense ratio and may have exit loads. A Stock SIP on Samco has neither you only pay a flat \u20b920 brokerage per executed order plus standard statutory charges. No exit load, no lock-in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re comfortable selecting companies yourself, a Stock SIP gives you more control. If you prefer a managed approach, a Mutual Fund SIP may suit you better. Many investors run both simultaneously.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":65,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"ht_kb_category":[2905],"ht_kb_tag":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/26903"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ht_kb"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/65"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26903"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/26903\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26905,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/26903\/revisions\/26905"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26903"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb_category?post=26903"},{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb_tag?post=26903"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
