What is SIP Calculator?
SIP (Systematic Investment Plan) is India's most popular way to invest in mutual funds. Instead of investing a lump sum, you invest a fixed amount every month — typically ₹500 to ₹50,000 or more. This approach leverages rupee cost averaging and the power of compounding to build long-term wealth. Our free SIP Calculator India helps you estimate how much your monthly investments will grow over time. Enter your monthly SIP amount, expected annual return rate, and investment period in years to instantly see your maturity amount, total invested, and wealth gained. Whether you are planning retirement, saving for a child's education, building an emergency fund through mutual funds, or comparing SIP vs lump sum investment, this calculator gives you clear projections. All calculations happen in your browser — your financial data is never uploaded or stored.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good SIP return rate to use?
Historical equity mutual fund returns in India average 10-15% annually over long periods. Conservative planners use 10-12%, aggressive estimates use 12-15%. Past returns do not guarantee future performance.
How is SIP different from lump sum investment?
SIP invests fixed amounts monthly, averaging purchase cost over time (rupee cost averaging). Lump sum invests everything at once. SIP reduces timing risk and suits salaried investors.
What is the minimum SIP amount?
Most mutual funds in India allow SIP starting from ₹500/month. Our calculator works with any amount from ₹500 upwards.
Does this calculator include tax?
No. Results show pre-tax returns. Mutual fund gains may be subject to STCG/LTCG tax depending on holding period and fund type.
