ICICI Prudential Freedom SIP

ICICI Prudential Freedom SIP is a smart investment facility that not only helps you build wealth systematically but also enables you to enjoy regular passive income—thereby giving you the financial freedom to live life on your terms.

Moreover, this unique concept combines the rigour of a Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) with the flexibility of a Systematic Withdrawal Plan (SWP). In other words, you invest regularly over the years, and then, from the date your investment phase completes, you start receiving monthly disbursements without the need to redeem the units manually.


How ICICI Prudential Freedom SIP Works

Begin with SIP
You choose a fixed investment amount and period (e.g.,  years, 10 years, and so on).This money is invested monthly into a Source Scheme.

Automatic Switch
At the close of your SIP term, your overall corpus will automatically become a part of a Target Scheme.

Begin SWP (Systematic Withdrawal Plan)
From the Target Scheme, you begin taking monthly payments—the default payout amount or an amount of your choice tailored according to your requirements.


Why ICICI Prudential Freedom SIP?

The idea is built on the #FreedomToDream philosophy—it provides you freedom to plan for:

1. Premature retirement

2. World travel

3. Pursuing hobbies & passions

4. Stress-free and comfortable living

With Freedom SIP, you embark on a disciplined investment path where creation of wealth translates easily into enjoyment of wealth.

Let’s Understand This Through an Example

📌 Example: 10-Year SIP Followed by 15-Year SWP

  • Corpus at end of SIP: ₹23,00,390
  • SWP Amount: ₹15,000 per month
  • Can sustain SWP: Yes
  • Fund Value After 15-Year SWP: ₹62,98,000

In this scenario, you invest ₹10,000 every month for 10 years. Over this period, the investment grows to around ₹23,00,390 due to compounding at 12% annual returns. After completing the SIP phase, you begin withdrawing ₹15,000 each month for the next 15 years, moreover this after the end of SWP period you are left with ₹62,98,000. This means that even with relatively modest monthly investments, you can create a reliable source of income during the withdrawal phase. It highlights how early and consistent investing builds a sufficient safety net for the future.

📌 Example: 15-Year SIP Followed by 15-Year SWP

  • Corpus at end of SIP: ₹50,22,570
  • SWP Amount: ₹30,000 per month
  • Can sustain SWP: Yes
  • Fund Value After 15-Year SWP: ₹1,51,27,000

By investing ₹10,000 per month for 15 years, your corpus grows to approximately ₹50.22 lakh at 12% annual returns. This is almost double the wealth created in the 10-year SIP case. After the SIP phase, you can withdraw ₹30,000 per month for 15 years, moreover this after the end of SWP period you are left with ₹1,51,27,000. This ensures financial stability, higher withdrawal capacity, and a strong buffer for inflation or unexpected expenses. It clearly shows the benefits of extending your investment horizon for long-term wealth creation.

Early Retirees – People looking for a steady income stream following an early retirement from the labor force
