Why should I make more SIP investment when my existing SIP investment is making loss?

1. What is the specified period of loss here? 1.1. Let us take the specified period is December 2007 to March 2009. 2. Why this is loss making period? Since the NAV is falling, in the taken period the NAV has fallen from ₹ 301 to ₹ 117. 3. Why this period is significant for investment? 3.1.

Has to start early 3. Needs to stay long Residential Accommodation Planning: To manage the down payment one may consider good Multicap Fund when the time horizon is 5 years a...
