A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is a popular way to invest in mutual funds. It allows you to invest a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, such as monthly or quarterly. This is a disciplined way to invest and can help you build wealth over time.
However, there may be times when you need to cancel your SIP. For example, you may face financial constraints or you may need to redirect your funds to other investments.

What happens to your invested amount when you cancel a SIP?
When you cancel a SIP, your invested amount remains in the mutual fund scheme. You can continue to earn returns on your investment until you redeem your units.
However, there may be a small exit load charged by the AMC when you redeem your units within a certain period of time (usually 1 year). The exit load varies from scheme to scheme.
Reasons to cancel a SIP mutual fund
There are a few reasons why you may need to cancel a SIP mutual fund:
- Financial constraints: If you are facing financial constraints, you may need to cancel your SIP to free up some cash flow.
- Change in investment goals: If your investment goals have changed, you may need to cancel your SIP in one scheme and start a new SIP in another scheme.
- Underperforming scheme: If your SIP is not performing well, you may want to cancel it and invest in a better-performing scheme.
