To encourage savings and promote financial inclusion, SBI Mutual Fund in collaboration with One 97 Communications, the parent company of fintech platform Paytm, has launched 'JanNivesh' scheme, which enables individuals to start investing with micro SIPs at just Rs 250.
The scheme is designed to target first-time investors and small savers across both rural and urban regions of the country, making mutual fund investments more accessible. Investors can choose to contribute daily, weekly, or monthly, depending on their convenience and financial goals.

Let us explore how a modest investment of Rs 250 per month can grow with a 15 per cent annual return over the years using a mutual fund future value calculator.
