Retirement Planner
Plan your retirement corpus.
Retirement Details
The Finzorio Retirement Planner helps individuals build a financially independent retirement corpus in India. Calculate future inflation-adjusted retirement expenses, project corpus requirements (Rule of 25x/30x), evaluate NPS & EPF contributions, and model drawdown strategies to ensure you never outlive your money.
Why Inflation-Adjusted Retirement Planning is Crucial
Retirement planning is the process of building a dedicated wealth pool that can replace your active salary during your non-working years (typically age 60 to 85+). Due to compound inflation (assumed at 6% p.a. in India), a monthly lifestyle cost of ₹50,000 today will escalate to ₹2,87,000 per month in 30 years.
Retirement Corpus & SIP Requirement Formula
- Annual Expense at Retirement = Current Annual Expense × (1 + Inflation Rate)^Years to Retire
- 25x Multiple = Based on Trinity 4% Safe Withdrawal Rule
- 30x Multiple = Recommended for early retirement or longer longevity (30+ post-retirement years)
Retirement Corpus Target & Monthly SIP Matrix
Estimated retirement corpus needed and monthly SIP required starting from different ages (assumed current annual expense = ₹6,00,000, 6% inflation, 12% SIP CAGR, retirement age 60):
