What is "Basket Investing"?

Basket Investing consists of curated collections of stocks or ETFs, each weighted intelligently to track a specific theme, strategy, or investment objective.

With a single click, investors can begin building a professionally curated and diversified portfolio designed to generate long-term wealth. Our platform offers 40+ baskets spanning a wide range of strategies and themes. Because every basket holds multiple stocks or ETFs, company-specific risk is significantly reduced — giving you the confidence of a well-spread portfolio from day one.

Advantages of Starting a SIP in Baskets

Baskets include an Auto SIP feature that lets you put your investments on autopilot — investing systematically at a pre-set frequency without any manual intervention.

Starting a SIP in baskets allows you to benefit from the power of compounding over time.
It enforces investing discipline by automating contributions without requiring active effort.
Removes the pressure of timing the market — your money works for you regardless of market cycles.
Helps you achieve long-term wealth creation goals in a structured and seamless manner.
Regular rebalancing ensures that your basket SIP portfolio stays healthy and aligned with its original theme over the long run.

Rebalances Regularly

Every basket on our platform is designed, analysed, and researched by SEBI-registered investment professionals who bring deep domain expertise to portfolio construction.

These experts also periodically review each basket to verify that it continues to faithfully track its underlying investment idea and theme.

The HSL research team publishes a dedicated "Basket Review Report" once every quarter, assessing the performance and trend of all baskets to confirm they remain in line with their stated themes and objectives.

Dashboard View

The basket dashboard gives you a comprehensive, at-a-glance view of everything that matters: the individual stocks within the portfolio, their respective weightages, today's price change, CAGR performance, relevant news linked to each holding, and detailed historical performance data.

All the information you need to stay informed and make confident decisions — consolidated in one clean, easy-to-navigate interface.

Additional Charges

Investing in baskets comes with no additional charges beyond the standard brokerage and statutory fees you already pay on your regular equity trades.

Many brokers in the market levy ₹100–₹200 as an extra fee for every basket purchased. HSL is among the few brokers that do not charge any such additional fee — keeping your cost of investing as low as possible.
