As-Salaam alaikum,
Reciting Surat Ikhlas (chapter 112 of the Holy Qur'an) is compared to complete recitation of one-third of the entire Qur'an. Reciting it is a means of blessings for you, the reciter. Note that Allah Ta'ala sent the Qur'an in 3 parts:--
(1) A third of it is comprised of Legal Rulings.
(2) A third is comprised of Exhortations of Promises and Warnings.
(3) A third is comprised of discussing Allah's Names and Attributes... and Surat Ikhlas brings together within it those Names and Attributes.
The Surah mentions 2 Names of Allah which together indicate all the Attributes of Perfection. They are not mentioned in any other verse or ayat:-
"al-Ahad" and "al-Samad"-- These 2 names indicate the Oneness of the Sacred Being who possesses all the attributes of perfection.
Allah is Ahad- His Singularity of existence cannot be shared by another entity.
Allah is Samad- His Dignity and Sovereignty reaches the extent where all other things in existence depend on for all their needs...
