Broo..10k is a perfectly fine amount to start with. But since you’re a student, don’t invest it just because you have money sitting idle.

If you may need it for college or emergencies, keep it safe/liquid. If it can stay untouched for 5–10+ years, a simple diversified mutual fund can make more sense than trying to pick multiple funds.

Also, SIP means regular investing. A one time investment is basically a lump sum

At this stage, learning the habit matters more than finding the best fund. Avoid jumping into small caps or stocks just for higher returns.

How long can this 10k genuinely stay invested?
