Is SIP supported in Dividend schemes of mutual funds?

It might be a very silly question, but is SIP supported in dividend scheme. I tried to do SIP for MOSL focused 35 fund but it says SIP not supported.

In SIP, you invest a fixed amount of money in a mutual fund of your choice every month. The set up is such that the money is automatically debited from your bank account.

The purpose of a dividend scheme is to earn income in regular intervals through the investment in the form of dividends.

Technically, an investor is allowed to go for an SIP in a dividend scheme. However, doing so essentially defeats the purpose of an SIP, wherein an investor is looking to invest surplus funds periodically.

This forms a cycle, wherein the core purpose of both the options is not fulfilled.

Yes, Its possible to do a SIP in dividend schemes but its not the best way to invest. 


The purpose of dividend schemes is to earn income from your investments where as SIP is a way of investing monthly from your regular income. So it doesn't make sense to do SIP in dividend schemes.

So, SIP in dividend funds is deactivated on groww.


Hope this helps.
