What this means for you

Your money could grow 2.8× over 15 years

For every ₹1,000 you invest, you'd end up with about ₹2,803 — the rest is compounding doing its quiet work.

65% of your gains arrive in the final 5 years

Roughly ₹21,22,369 of your total growth happens in the last 5 years — because compounding works on a much larger base by then. Staying the course in the final stretch matters most.

Delaying by 5 years could cost you ₹27,22,369

Starting the same SIP 5 years later (with everything else identical) would leave you with ₹23,23,391 instead of ₹50,45,760.

What inflation does to it

At ~6% inflation, ₹50,45,760 in 15 years is worth roughly ₹21,05,419 in today's money. Turn on “Adjust for inflation” above to see the dashed real-value line on the chart.

To achieve this growth, choosing the right platform matters.

What is a SIP calculator?

A SIP (Systematic Investment Plan) calculator estimates the future value of fixed monthly investments into mutual funds or index funds. It uses the standard future-value-of-an-annuity formula, factoring in your contribution, time horizon, and expected return — so you can plan goals like retirement, buying a home, or your child's education with realistic numbers.

How to use this calculator

  1. Set your monthly investment — the amount you can comfortably commit each month.
  2. Choose the investment duration in years. Longer is almost always better.
  3. Pick an expected annual return. For Indian equity funds, 10–14% is a common long-term assumption.
  4. Optionally enable Step-Up SIP to automatically increase your contribution over time.
  5. Try the Quick boost presets to see how a small monthly increase changes your final corpus.

Example calculation

If you invest ₹10,000 per month for 20 years at an expected return of 12% per annum, your total contribution would be ₹24,00,000. With monthly compounding, the future value works out to roughly ₹99,91,479 — meaning compounding generated the rest as gains.

Pro tip: Even a 5% yearly step-up dramatically outperforms a flat SIP. Try toggling Step-Up SIP above and watch the chart steepen.
