A SIP calculator helps you estimate how regular monthly investments can grow over time through compounding. It is useful for equity mutual funds and long-term goals where discipline matters more than timing the market. Whether you are investing in India or globally, it gives a practical starting point for planning contributions and expected returns.

How SIP growth works

In a Systematic Investment Plan (SIP), each instalment gets a different time period to compound. Early contributions work the longest, while recent contributions have less time, so consistency is key. The calculator estimates maturity value using your monthly amount, expected annual return, and investment duration.

SIP formula

M = P x ((1 + r)^n - 1) / r x (1 + r), where M is maturity value, P is monthly investment, r is monthly return rate (annual rate/12), and n is total number of months.

What to keep in mind

  • Expected return is not guaranteed, especially for market-linked products.
  • Increase SIP annually to match salary growth and inflation.
  • Review asset allocation for short, medium, and long-term goals.
  • Use conservative return assumptions for critical goals.

How to use this SIP calculator

  1. Enter monthly SIP amount.
  2. Enter expected annual return percentage.
  3. Enter investment tenure in years.
  4. Check invested amount, estimated gains, and maturity value.
  5. Adjust amount or tenure until your target is achievable.

Worked example

If you invest Rs 10,000 per month for 15 years at an assumed 12% annual return, total investment is Rs 18,00,000. The estimated maturity value is about Rs 50,45,760, and estimated wealth gain is around Rs 32,45,760.

Frequently Asked Questions

SIP reduces timing risk by spreading investments across market cycles. Lump sum may work well when markets are clearly undervalued and your risk tolerance is high, but SIP is usually better for steady salaried investing.

For long-term equity portfolios, many investors model a range such as 10% to 14% in India and 6% to 10% for developed markets. Use a conservative number for goal planning to build a margin of safety.

No. SIP is an investment method, not a guaranteed-return product. Final returns depend on fund performance, market volatility, and how long you stay invested.

Most platforms allow you to pause, stop, or step up SIP contributions. Increasing SIP over time can meaningfully improve your final corpus without extending the tenure too much.
