Gifting & legacy

Give the gift of a SIP — a future, not just a present.

Diwali, a birthday, a wedding, a grandchild's arrival — the occasions for giving are many, and most gifts are forgotten within a year. A SIP in a child's or grandchild's name is different: it starts from ₹500 a month, it compounds for decades, and it teaches the habit that matters most. Legacy is the same idea at a larger scale — passing on wealth deliberately, with the paperwork done.

Why it needs its own plan

Traditional gifts and fixed deposits struggle to keep pace with inflation. A mutual fund SIP gifted to a loved one grows with the market over the long haul, can be paused or increased at will, and carries a lesson about patience. At the other end of life, a legacy plan — nominations, wills, a clear list of holdings — is the most considerate gift a family can receive.

Who this is for

Parents and grandparents who want a gift that lasts

Families planning to transfer wealth across generations

Anyone who wants their giving to be structured and tax-aware

How we approach it

4 steps, in order.

01

Choose the recipient and the horizon

A minor's folio for a grandchild, a joint plan for a couple, a lump sum for a parent — each has its own paperwork.

02

Start small, stay regular

SIPs from ₹500 a month; increase on each occasion instead of buying something new.

03

Keep it tax-aware

Gifts to specified relatives are exempt in the recipient's hands; income clubbing rules apply for minors. We flag what applies.

04

Put the legacy in order

Nominations on every investment, a single record of holdings, and a will — reviewed every few years.

Questions we help you answer

The questions clients actually ask.

  • Yes. A minor's folio is opened with a parent or guardian, and the SIP runs from the guardian's bank account until the child turns eighteen.

  • Gifts from specified relatives are not taxed in the recipient's hands, but income from a minor's investment is clubbed with a parent's until majority. We help you plan around this; please confirm your position with your chartered accountant.

  • A SIP suits an ongoing gift and averages the purchase price; a lump sum suits an occasion. Many families do both.

  • Nominations, joint holdings, a consolidated list of all investments and where the documents are, and whether a will exists and is current.

  • Yes. Planned, regular giving can be structured just like any other goal, with the tax treatment of the recipient organisation taken into account.
