This calculator estimates the future value of your SIP investments using your monthly contribution, expected annual return rate, and investment duration, giving a projection based on compound growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is rupee-cost averaging in a SIP?

By investing a fixed amount regularly regardless of market price, you automatically buy more units when prices are low and fewer when prices are high, which averages out your purchase cost over time rather than trying to time the market.

What return rate should I assume for a SIP calculation?

This depends on the underlying fund's asset class and historical performance — equity funds and debt funds have different typical return ranges, and past returns don't guarantee future performance, so use a realistic and conservative assumption.

Does a SIP guarantee positive returns?

No, SIP is an investment method, not a guarantee — the underlying mutual fund's performance depends on market conditions, and returns can be negative in poor market periods, especially over shorter time horizons.

Is a longer SIP duration always better?

Generally, longer investment horizons help smooth out market volatility and give compound growth more time to work, though your specific goals and time horizon needs should guide your actual investment duration.

Can I change or stop my SIP contribution amount?

Most SIP arrangements allow you to modify, pause, or stop contributions, though specific terms depend on the fund house and platform you're investing through.

This calculator provides SIP estimates only. Return assumptions, fees, and market performance can vary, so verify investment decisions with appropriate professional guidance.
