How It Works & Formula
Mathematical Formula
Maturity = P ร [((1 + i)โฟ - 1) / i] ร (1 + i)
Where P is the monthly investment amount, i is the periodic monthly interest rate (annual rate / 12), and n is the total number of monthly installments.
๐ Step-by-Step Calculation Breakdown
Substituted values from your current calculation inputs:
Monthly Investment: โน10000
Expected Return Rate (p.a. %): 12 %
Investment Period (Years): 10 years
How to Use This Calculator
Enter your monthly SIP investment amount (in โน or preferred currency).
Enter the expected annual rate of return (typically 12%โ15% for equity mutual funds in India).
Select the investment duration in years.
Click Calculate to see total invested capital, estimated capital gains, and total maturity corpus.
Example Calculation
A monthly SIP of โน10,000 at an expected 12% p.a. for 10 years gives: Total Invested = โน12,00,000, Estimated Returns = โน11,23,391, Total Maturity Corpus = โน23,23,391 (~โน23.23 Lakh).
Understanding the Results
SIP leverages rupee cost averaging and power of compounding, dampening market volatility over the long term.
SIP Calculator โ Systematic Investment Plan Returns Guide
A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is the most disciplined and accessible way for retail investors in India to participate in equity mutual funds. By investing a fixed amount every month โ regardless of market conditions โ SIPs leverage Rupee Cost Averaging and compounding to build substantial wealth over time.
What Is a SIP?
A SIP allows you to invest a fixed sum (e.g., โน5,000/month) into a mutual fund scheme at regular intervals. Instead of timing the market with a lump sum โ notoriously difficult even for professionals โ you invest systematically, buying more units when prices are low and fewer units when prices are high. Over time, your average cost per unit tends to be lower than the average price.
SIP Future Value Formula
FV = P ร [(1 + r)^n โ 1] / r ร (1 + r)
Where: P = Monthly investment | r = Monthly return rate (expected annual rate รท 12) | n = Number of months | FV = Maturity corpus
Markets are at all-time highs (averaging in is safer)
You want to build savings discipline
โ Choose Lumpsum When:
Markets have corrected significantly
You received a bonus, gratuity, or windfall
Your time horizon is very long (10+ years)
You have high risk tolerance
Step-Up SIP Strategy
A Step-Up SIP (also called Top-Up SIP) increases your monthly contribution by a fixed percentage each year โ typically 10โ15%, aligned with expected salary increments. This dramatically accelerates wealth creation because the additional compounding on higher contributions in later years has a disproportionate impact.
Example: โน5,000/month starting SIP with 10% annual step-up at 12% expected return over 20 years generates approximately โน1.5 crore versus โน50 lakh from a flat โน5,000/month SIP.
Tax Treatment of SIP Returns (India)
Each SIP instalment is treated as a separate investment for capital gains tax purposes. For equity mutual funds:
Units held < 12 months: Short-Term Capital Gains (STCG) taxed at 20%
Units held โฅ 12 months: Long-Term Capital Gains (LTCG) taxed at 12.5% on gains above โน1.25 lakh/year (Budget 2024)
For debt mutual funds, all gains are now added to income and taxed at slab rates regardless of holding period (post-2023 budget change).
