  • The return is your assumption, not a forecast. Markets do not deliver the same number every year, and a long fall early on hurts more than the average suggests.
  • Try the step-up field: raising the instalment with your salary usually matters more than finding a better fund.
  • Figures are before tax. Gains on equity funds held over a year are taxed as long-term capital gains.

Common questions

Is the return guaranteed?

No. The return is a number you type in, not a promise. Equity mutual funds in India have returned roughly 10 to 13 per cent a year over long periods, but any ten-year stretch can be far better or far worse, and a fall of 30 per cent or more has happened several times.

What is a step-up SIP?

Raising the instalment by a fixed percentage every year, usually in line with a salary increase. It matters more than most people expect: a 10 per cent yearly step-up on a ten-year SIP invests roughly 60 per cent more than a flat one.

Does this account for tax?

No. Gains on equity funds held over a year are taxed as long-term capital gains, and the rate and exemption change from time to time, so the figure here is before tax.
