SWP (Systematic Withdrawal Plan)
A regular paycheque from your own savings.
A Systematic Withdrawal Plan pays you a fixed amount from your mutual fund every month, quarter or year, while the remaining money stays invested and keeps growing. It is a popular way to create retirement income or a steady cash flow, and it is often more tax-efficient than interest from fixed deposits.
