What is a SIP Calculator

A SIP Calculator is an online tool that helps you estimate how your regular monthly investment may grow over time. It calculates the total invested amount, estimated returns, and total expected amount based on your monthly SIP, expected annual return rate, and investment period.

It is useful for mutual fund investors and anyone planning long-term investments. By changing the monthly investment, expected return, or time period, you can compare different SIP investment scenarios easily.

Note: SIP returns are market-linked and the actual returns may be higher or lower than the estimated amount.

SIP Calculation Formula

The SIP maturity amount is calculated using the standard future value formula for monthly investments:

FV = P × [((1 + r)n − 1) ÷ r] × (1 + r)

Where:

  • FV = Total Expected Amount
  • P = Monthly Investment
  • r = Monthly Return Rate = Annual Return Rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100
  • n = Total Number of Monthly Investments = Total Months

Total Invested Amount = Monthly Investment × Total Months

Wealth Gained = Total Expected Amount − Total Invested Amount

Example

Monthly SIP = ₹5,000
Expected Return = 12% p.a.
Period = 10 years

Total Invested = ₹6,00,000
Wealth Gained ≈ ₹5,61,695
Total Expected Amount ≈ ₹11,61,695

Actual returns may vary because SIP returns are market-linked.
