Free SIP calculator for India. Calculate mutual fund SIP returns, compounding growth, and step-up wealth. Estimate monthly investment growth with precision.
Compounding & Wealth Creation Formula
FV = P × [((1 + r)^n – 1) / r] × (1 + r)
- FV (Future Value): Estimated total maturity corpus
- P (Periodic Payment): Monthly SIP investment amount
- r (Periodic Return Rate): Expected Annual Return Rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100
- n (Tenure in Months): Investment tenure in years × 12
Power of Compounding Example: Investing ₹10,000 every month for 20 years at a historical 12% equity CAGR results in total invested capital of ₹24 Lakh turning into an accumulated wealth corpus of ₹99.91 Lakh (≈ ₹1 Crore) — generating ₹75.91 Lakh purely in compounding interest gains.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- How much monthly SIP is needed to accumulate ₹1 Crore?
- At an assumed 12% annual equity return: 1) ₹10,000/month for 20 years, 2) ₹16,000/month for 15 years, or 3) ₹32,000/month for 10 years creates a ₹1 Crore corpus. Starting early cuts the monthly commitment by over 65%.
