What is SIP (Systematic Investment Plan)?

A Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) is one of the most popular investment methods in India, and using a SIP calculator helps investors estimate their future returns easily.

SIP is one of the most popular investment methods in India, with over 6 crore SIP accounts and monthly inflows exceeding ₹15,000 crores. It's perfect for salaried individuals, young professionals, and anyone looking to build wealth systematically.

How Does Our SIP Calculator Work?

Our SIP calculator uses the compound interest formula to calculate your investment returns:

M = P × [(1 + i)ⁿ – 1] / i × (1 + i)
M = Maturity amount (future value)
P = Monthly SIP amount
i = Monthly interest rate (annual rate / 12 / 100)
n = Total number of months

📊 Example Calculation

  • • Monthly Investment: ₹5,000
  • • Expected Return: 12% p.a.
  • • Time Period: 10 years
  • Total Value: ₹11.6 lakhs
  • • Total Invested: ₹6 lakhs
  • • Returns: ₹5.6 lakhs

🚀 Step-Up SIP Benefit

  • • Starting SIP: ₹5,000
  • • Annual Increase: 10%
  • • Time Period: 10 years
  • Total Value: ₹15.2 lakhs
  • • Extra Returns: ₹3.6 lakhs
  • • 31% more wealth!

SIP Reality Check (Important)

  • • Returns are market-linked (not guaranteed)
  • • Short-term losses are possible
  • • 1–3 year performance can be volatile

👉 SIP works best when you stay invested for 7–10+ years.
