Mutual Fund Investment- How Systematic transfer plan - STP works?

Systematic transfer plan - STP works like systematic investment plans (SIPs). Just that, in a STP, an investor typically puts in a lump sum amount into a liquid fund & then systematically transfers it into an equity mutual fund.

In an SIP, the instalments are transferred directly from the investor's bank account to the fund.

So, if you have Rs. 1 lakh to invest, it first goes into a liquid fund. From the liquid fund, every week or /  month, a fixed sum (say Rs. 4,000 per week or Rs. 16,000 per month) is invested into an equity fund.

The residual amount in the liquid fund continues to earn interest, while the investment into equities is staggered over a period of time.
