Hello Karthik, Well I have a doubt. What’s the difference between Dividend reinvestment plan and growth plan? I’m a bit confused over these two.

In reply to Anshul Mishra. Both are essentially similar. I'd suggest you stick to Growth plan.

Hey Karthik,
What is the difference between the growth plan and dividend reinvestment plan? (As both of them are using reinvesting)

How can profits be ploughed back into fund when they are unrealized?? (in growth plan)

In reply to Nitu. Nitu, thanks. Not specifically, but we've spoken about SIPs and when possible across all our platforms :)

Hi you mention here that SIP deserves a chapter of it’s own, can I know if that’s written and posted? .
Thank you soo much, this initiative of having a varsity and writing such valuable, educative, great lengths of each topic. Heartfelt gratitude

Hi Karthik,

For a person like me who used to run away from reading anything related to finance because of the complex language at times, I am really grateful that everything on Varsity is so simple and comprehensible. Because of the ease to understand I have started developing interest in learning things about finance and now slowly and gradually I am working on better money management. Knowledge is power and I feel empowered as I am going through each concept neatly.
Thank you again and continue the good work! Financial literacy is so important for a country’s growth.

Hi Karthik.
First of Kudos to you and the varsity team on creating such a wonderfully crafted and easy to understand user content.
I have a doubt relating to the number of funds an AMC can float.In the video you had said that an AMC can run only one fund in any given category with no overlapping investment objectives, and in the PDF it is stated that ICICI PRU AMC runs 243 different schemes. Does that mean there are approx around 243 different categories of mutual funds ? Or is there something that I am missing here ?
Best regards.

In reply to Shubhankar. Thanks. How much you save depends on how much you invest, but yes, you can save quite a bit :)

Thank you, Kartik Sir, for this eye-opening fact of regular vs direct mutual funds. I am 23 years old, and I realize that I can save crores down the line by just changing my plan from regular to direct. Many thanks to you!!
