How This Calculator Works

This calculator starts from the amount you want to end up with and works backwards. It shows two ways to get there: a one-time lumpsum invested today, or a fixed monthly SIP.

The Formulas

Lumpsum = Target ÷ (1 + r)t
Monthly SIP = Target ÷ {[(1 + i)n − 1] ÷ i × (1 + i)}
r = annual return  ยท  t = years  ยท  i = annual return ÷ 12  ยท  n = years × 12 (nearest whole month)

What Each Input Does

Target Amount
The amount you want to have at the end.
Expected Return (%)
The yearly return you expect. A higher return means you need to invest less.
Duration (Years)
How long until you need the money.

Step by Step

  1. Lumpsum: the target is discounted back to today at the yearly return.
  2. SIP: the target is divided by the growth of 1 invested at the start of every month.
  3. Both amounts are rounded to the nearest whole amount.

Reading the Result

Lumpsum or SIP โ€“ either one alone should reach the target, if the expected return is achieved.

Quick Example

Target 1,000,000 in 10 years at 12%. You need either a lumpsum of 321,973 today or a monthly SIP of 4,304.
