Time in Market
02Unlike SIPs, a lumpsum investment puts the entire capital to work from Day 1. This exposes you to higher market-timing risk but maximizes the compounding period for the full amount. In a bull market, lumpsum typically outperforms SIP significantly.
The 72-Rule
To find out how long it takes to double your money, divide 72 by your interest rate. At 12%, your lumpsum doubles every 6 years. Use this 'Rule of 72' as a quick mental benchmark for wealth growth.
