Start from the corpus you want — see the monthly SIP that gets there
A SIP goal calculator inverts the usual SIP question: you name the corpus you want — ₹25 lakh for education, ₹1 crore for retirement — the expected return and the years you have, and it tells you the monthly SIP that gets there. It uses the standard SIP future-value formula solved for the monthly contribution.
Enter your target amount, the annual return you expect (equity mutual funds have historically delivered 10–14% over long periods, never guaranteed) and the years available. The calculator returns the required monthly SIP, how much of the final corpus is your own money and how much is growth. The year-by-year chart shows how late the growth arrives — most of the compounding happens in the final third.
Adjust the sliders or type values to match your scenario.

At 12% expected annual return, roughly ₹21,000 per month. At 10 years it jumps to about ₹44,600 per month — five extra years cut the requirement by more than half, which is the whole argument for starting now.
Long-term Indian equity fund returns have historically been in the 10–14% band, but they are not guaranteed. Plan at 10–12% and treat anything above as a bonus rather than a promise.
If your income grows, yes — even a 10% annual step-up reaches the same goal with a much smaller starting SIP. Use the Step-Up SIP calculator to model it.
