Now is the right time to start- don't wait for markets to fall or rise, as they are unpredictable. So first thing- don't delay.

Remember that SIPs allow you to invest regularly and gradually, with the aim of building wealth in a disciplined manner, over time.

By investing via SIPs, you could benefit whether the markets go up or down. Here’s how this works.

In order to create wealth and have a good investment experience, we strongly recommend remaining invested for a long period of time - while 5 years seems like a good holding period, 10 years or longer is even better. This long-term commitment will mean you won't get worried by short-term volatility and will give your investment a better chance to do well for you over time.

Always remember that there is no 'best scheme' whether at DSP or at another AMC, only the scheme 'right for your objective'.

You need to plan your individualized investment journey based on your personal objectives and risk profile- there is no one-size-fits all approach. What's right for others may not be right for you, so you really would need to speak with an expert mutual funds distributor who can understand your requirements, discuss your risk profile and recommend the right set of products to you.

Please also spend some time understanding the various products in our stable here. This will help you take a better, more informed decision whether you invest directly or via an expert MF distributor.

You can start a SIP in a DSP scheme with as little as Rs.500/- per instalment.

You can choose either a monthly or a quarterly option to start your SIP.

A SIP can be registered for any date in a given month, the choice is yours.

Yes, the minimum number of instalments is 12. Only in DSP Tax Saver Fund, you can register a SIP of 6 instalments (even though your investment will be locked-in for 3 years since this fund is an Equity Linked Savings Scheme).

If you do not specify the SIP end date on the application form, the SIP will be treated as '‘perpetual'. Which is actually a good thing for most investors- in fact, we recommend this!

There is no entry load for investments in mutual funds. An exit load will be charged for the specific scheme as per the applicable load structure at the time of registering the SIP.

Instead of canceling your SIP, you can choose to pause it with our ‘SIP Pause’ Facility. This allows you to stop SIP installments for a certain period and then restart the SIP again at a later date.

Flex STP is a type of STP that allows you to set up a process through which you can automatically invest a higher amount when the markets fall and a lower amount when the markets are rising. This means, the amount transferred as part of your STP will vary (based on a formula that takes into account the previous value of investments already made) on the registered Flex STP date.

The first instalment will be as per the amount specified by you in the FLEX STP Registration form.

From the second Flex STP instalment onwards, the instalment amount shall be the higher amount of the two below:

i. The fixed instalment amount specified by you originally OR
ii. The amount determined by this formula: 'Instalment amount as originally indicated by you' X 'Number of instalments invested' (including current) minus 'Current market value of all instalments paid till now'.

Here is how the 5th instalment amount of your Flex STP for May 7, 2018 will be calculated:

• Let's assume total units allotted up to the date of last instalment i.e. April 7, 2018 = 500 units
• Let's assume latest NAV of DSP Equity Fund on May 7, 2018 = Rs.12 per unit
• Therefore, market value of your investment in DSP Equity Fund till now = Rs. 6,000 [500 units X Rs12]
• The 5th instalment will be the higher of:
  o Fixed amount specified at the time of enrolment = Rs.2000 OR
  o As determined by the formula given above = [(2000*5)- 6,000] or Rs. 4,000

Hence, on May 7, 2018, the instalment amount transferred to the target Scheme will be Rs. 4,000/-

However, in case there is a redemption or switch-out of any units allotted under Flex STP, the balance instalments under Flex STP will be processed for the fixed instalment amount only as specified by the unit holder at the time of enrolment, subject to other terms and conditions available on Page 2 of FLEX STP Registration form.
You can submit it at any of our Branches or CAMS Investor Service Centres.

The Finance Act, 2020 has abolished Dividend Distribution Tax (DDT) where tax was paid by the mutual fund before declaring the dividend and dividends were tax-free in the hands of unit holders.

From April 1, 2020 any dividends declared have become taxable in the hands of the unit holders.

Mutual funds are now required to deduct tax at source ('TDS') on the dividend amount at prescribed rates. This is applicable only to individual investors, to all categories of mutual funds and for all dividend options.

The exemption level is set at Rs. 5,000 per financial year. TDS will be deducted where the dividend amount exceeds Rs. 5,000 in a given financial year.

For record dates between April 1, 2020 and May 25, 2020

TDS was deducted on all dividend amounts where the dividend amount was Rs. 1/- and above.

For effective record dates post May 26, 2020:

• Dividends will be cumulated at PAN / PEKRN level and TDS will be deducted only when the cumulative dividend amount crosses Rs. 4,000/- for a given financial year
• No TDS will be deducted if the total dividend does not exceed Rs. 4000/-

Section 194K provides for deduction of TDS when the dividend amount in a Financial Year exceeds Rs. 5000. To avoid shortfall in deduction of TDS, the threshold for TDS deduction has been kept at Rs. 4000 beyond which TDS will be deducted.

Let us understand with an example as to why the threshold is Rs. 4000

• The dividend from April 2021 to Nov 2021 cumulates to Rs. 4900 for which no TDS is deducted and the entire Rs. 4900 is paid to the investor or re-invested. Let us assume the next dividend is declared in December 2021 for which the payout would be Rs.200. Now the total dividend for the financial year would have exceeded Rs. 5000 (Rs.4900 + Rs.200). With TDS @ 10% on Rs. 5,100, Rs. 510 will have to be deducted from the dividend payable to the investor. In this case the deduction of Rs. 510 will not possible to be deducted as the dividend amount is only Rs 200. This will create a shortfall in deduction of TDS.
• Considering scenarios like these, the threshold has been kept to Rs. 4000.

Unitholders less than 60 years of age need to submit ‘Form 15G’ before the start of the Financial Year if they are expecting their tax liability for the year to be Nil.

Senior citizens (aged 60+) need to submit 'Form 15H' before the start of the Financial Year if they are expecting their tax liability for the year to be Nil.

These forms are valid for one year only and need to be resubmitted to DSPMF every year.

Yes, a TDS Certificate will be issued on a quarterly basis after the TDS return is filed by the Fund. The TDS amount will also reflect in your Form 26AS at the Income Tax return e-Filing Portal.
