About This SIP Calculation

Investing ₹50K every month through SIP for 3 years at an expected 8% annual return builds a corpus of ₹20,40,290. Your total investment of ₹18,00,000 generates estimated returns of ₹2,40,290 — a wealth gain of 13.3%. Compounding accelerates sharply in the later years: roughly 27% of the final corpus is created in the last quarter of the investment period. Starting ₹50K/month 3 years earlier at the same rate can add over ₹1,44,000 more to your final corpus. Debt funds targeting 8% returns are taxed at your income slab rate on gains. Investing in direct plans rather than regular plans typically saves 0.5–1% annually in expense ratio, compounding to a significant difference over 3 years.

Frequently Asked Questions

A monthly SIP of ₹50,000 for 3 years at 8% annual returns grows to ₹20,40,290. You invest ₹18,00,000 and earn ₹2,40,290 as returns — a gain of 13.3%.
SIP returns are calculated using the compound interest formula: FV = M × [((1 + r)^n − 1) / r] × (1 + r), where M is the monthly amount, r is the monthly rate (annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100), and n is the total months. This accounts for the power of compounding — each month's investment earns returns on itself.
8% annual returns is very realistic. Indian large-cap equity mutual funds have historically returned 10–14% CAGR over 10+ year periods. Small-cap funds have returned 15–18%+. Past performance doesn't guarantee future results. Use 8% as a planning estimate, not a guarantee.
Yes — a Step-Up SIP (increasing by 10% annually) dramatically accelerates wealth creation. If you start at ₹50,000/month and increase by 10% yearly, your corpus over 3 years will be significantly higher than a fixed ₹50,000 SIP. Most mutual fund platforms support automated step-up SIPs.
For 3-year SIPs, balanced/hybrid funds or large-cap equity funds offer good risk-adjusted returns. Popular categories: Index Funds (Nifty 50/Nifty Next 50), Flexi-cap Funds, ELSS (tax-saving). Consult a SEBI-registered advisor for personalised advice.
To accumulate ₹1 Crore in 3 years at 8% returns, you need approximately ₹2,45,063/month. The longer your time horizon, the lower the monthly amount needed — this is the power of compounding.
