Assumes returns are compounded monthly. SIP returns are not guaranteed — actual returns depend on market performance.

How it works

FV = P × ((1+i)ⁿ − 1) ÷ i × (1+i), with annual step-up applied to the monthly contribution.

Example: ₹10,000/month at 12% for 10 years → ₹23.2 lakh (invested ₹12L).

Frequently Asked Questions

How is SIP future value calculated?

Each monthly contribution grows at the monthly return rate until maturity, and the results are summed. The formula is FV = P × ((1+i)ⁿ − 1) ÷ i × (1+i), where i is the monthly rate and n the number of months.

What is a good SIP return assumption?

Large-cap equity funds have historically returned 10–14% over 10+ years, but returns are not guaranteed. Use 12% as a planning figure and test sensitivity with 10% and 14%.

What does an annual step-up do?

It increases your monthly contribution by a fixed percentage every year — for example 10% yearly to match salary growth. Step-ups meaningfully boost the final corpus.

Can I stop or withdraw my SIP anytime?

Yes — SIPs have no lock-in. You can pause or stop them anytime and redeem units at the prevailing NAV; equity funds may charge an exit load within the first year.
