Interesting Mutual Fund - India

As per this article, if a SIP is in place for a minimum of 4 years it makes money no matter when the SIP started. Unfortunately the article doesn't talk differentiate between the return duration being positive and the SIP duration. I think the article assumes both periods to be identical. Now if the two were different - meaning I started an SIP whose duration was one year and I held the units for some period of time. Then, what is the minimum period of time I need to hold the units (after SIP got over which in this case was one year from the beginning) so that I will make money? For example if my SIP was from Apr 2008 to Mar 2009, then when should I sell the units before I start making money? In 2010, perhaps the market tanked and hence I wouldn't make money (just an arbitrary example, don't take me literally).
